Could Still work, with some fresh revisions


Remo Williams seems to have a generous cult following for a simplistic spy film that came along after 20 years of James Bond films. The very cool, unique thing about Remo is that he was nobody with potential to be better and became so, the father-son type of relationship he has with Chun, and that Remo really didn't use too much gunplay or any gun play to subdue an enemy. He used his hands and the surrounding materials. ith a bit of retuning and reworking, you could revive the Remo Williams adventure, perhaps even into a nice little series. It would have to stand up to Bourne Trilogy somehow, but if it could, it could be great.

Yeah but Remo Williams isn't supposed to be gritty or realistic in any way. Remo Williams is a pulp character, so he's not even the vein as Bourne.
