Every once in a while I hear from fans that say remakes are bad or they suck. I once asked some fans how they felt about the 1931 Dracula movie with Bela Lugosi and the 1931 Frankenstien movie with Boris karloff and 1932 Mummy movies. They all said those movies rule. Then I told them they were remakes not originals. They freaked and I told them when the original Frankenstien Dracula Mumy movies were made. 1909 1910 1920. So I wouldnt say all remakes suck because alot of them are pretty darn good.

Personally, I'd like to see a remake of Mark of the Devil.

Well I hate the remakes coming out in these times....sure Thomas Edison's Frankenstein is great damn it I was going to buy this but it got sold out....

The Thing, The Fly, and a bunch of others are great remakes....BUT these remakes are made for $$$$$ not for craftsmanship and art. Its in the wallot for horror films these years....

Hey Classic you know what will be intersting to see is how old school stopmotion KingKong 1933 will compare to a new CGI Kong in 2005. I get the feeling Willis O BriansKong will still rule. Anythoughts

Well Gojira I can't say the new Peter Jackson Kong will compare to the O' Willis kong.

I hate cgi, Peter Jackson proved to us in LOTR series that he's capable of overflowing his cgi.

Well Classic I enjoyed the LOTR movies and imo Jackson should have been best director for 3 years not 1. but Hollywood does not really give awards to fantasy films. But after 3 years I guess they couldnt ignore what Jackson had made. The thing that bothers me about this new Kong movie is that I hear Kong will be only 25 ft tall and if thats true alot of Kong fans will be turned off by that.

Peter Jackson has made some good movies: Dead Alive, Bad Taste, The Frighteners, Heavenly Creatures...ect.

In matter of fact Dead Alive is my 6th fav horror film. I think Clash of The Titans, Sinbad movies, Wizard of Oz, and a bunch of others are way better then LOTR.

Well Classic here is how I see it LOTR was voted best picture and Wiz of OZ Class of the Titans Sinbad and Dead Alive were not. So imo LOTR is better far far far better. But any movie that makes 3 times what it cost to make is infact a successful movie. The remake of the Wizard of OZ in its day was awesome in 1939 and even today its still great no doubt about it. But I think LOTR is better
