Wicker Man Remake

I did a search, and to the best of my knowledge this thread hasn't been done before ;)

Anyway, "The Wicker Man" is currently being filmed as a re-make with...Nicholas Cage...BOOOOOOO.

Thoughts anyone? Personally...I'm not happy about it...but I'm usually not too happy with any remake:p

Some films are classics and defo shouldn't be remade no matter what and this fits into that group. It will probably have a nice happy ending just rub salt into the wound.
I am a believer that some remakes can be a good thing and inspire interest in the original films but not this.

I agree that a lot of times people seem to overrate it, but it still has a great plot. I wonder if the new one will have the weird musical numbers.

Hmmmm, I like Cage so it could be good... remakes have been good before people! The whole, "oh my God don't remake anything ever!" is a little played in my opinion. If you don't like the actors or director fine but give it a chance, for every five that suck one may be watchable.

LOL. The weird musical numbers are the best part of the movie ;):p

I liked the movie more after the second viewing...the first time, I was just like "huh?" ;) But then I came to appreciate it, after I understood it a bit better...and now it's definately one of my favorites...it's totally creepy.

I'm sure I'll end up at least renting the re-make...btw on IMDB...they list A WOMAN as playing the part of LORD SUMMERISLE...I'm a girl and all...but....booooooo ;)
