Remake aleffing ready?!


Go to movie connections. It says remade as The Valet (2008). Less than 2 years since release and already a @#(%*)@*$#%)#*$#)$*(@#)%*(@#)$*(#$)*@#^&^(*%(*%^*% remake!?! WTF!

Oh, it's worse than that. It's the Farrelly brothers who are doing the remake. America is undergoing two droughts, one to do with rain and the other with comedy.

First rule of movie-going: never confuse the actor with his role.

I thought two years seemed a little soon, but then I realized Hollywood has done the same thing with recent Asian horror movies (The Eye, The Ring, The Grudge). What they should do is release the original film with subtitles in American theaters, as was done with films like Hero.

ebobrow,
if you read the plot for The Valet (2008), it's nothing like this movie. It says that a valet decides to rob one of his customers.

Of course, the one coming out in 2012 by the Farrelly, IS a remake. I still think it's too soon, though.
