"the dinner game"was hilarious and seemed like a movie John Hughes could "Americanize". The rich who play with the poor or "idiots". The funny thing is that this movie is actually being remade into a 2008 release and being called "dinner for schmucks". There are couple writers and BORAT(Sasha Baron Cohen) attached. I'd love to see this movie being written or directed by Mr. Hughes(although I know that it will not happen). Just wanted to throw this outthere, and do see the French movie is phenomenal. Great acting and direction.this is the link to john hughes' work http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000455/

it'd be tricky. the main thing about the dinner game is that it has a lot of play on words. I don't think John Hughes would be the best choice for a remake; imo, another director could probably do it better.

You're a sick, dark individual, and yet I chuckled.

Signa...? No, we use Chip and PIN now.

I lit 16 candles for that.

Now ask me how I really feel, I'm just here for the comments.
