Are you F’n kidding me?!!

I think there is gonna be a major backlash against Hollywood real soon.

What really sucks about all these remakes and reboots is that it really alienates aspiring screenwriter who are trying to actually do something original.I’m sure that there are hundreds upon thousands of screenplays just wasting away on the floor of producers floors that are just collecting dust.I’m sure there’s something that’s more than deserving of being made into a movie.

At this point,if you are looking to break into Hollywood as a screenwriter,start writing comics and hope that someone notices your talent.

I didn’t think Daylight was that bad.

Cliffhanger does NOT need rebooting. You can bet that I won’t be spending my money to watch it. Judging from the description, it’s NOTHING like the original (which I enjoyed very much). They’re just using the fairly well known name so people will see it.

@Sin – Absolutely! But DFZ is a bigger franchise in Asia than it is over here so that might have a little to do with it as well.

Most commercial films, guessing 90% or more, are made in the US so it would make sense that their success would be judged by stateside box office numbers.

If they do this reboot it should be a Cross between the Original Cliffhanger, and Snow Dogs with Cuba Gooding Jr., that way the Hollywood Money Hounds can market it too kids as well.

@ Paul Young

Even tickets sales state side and internationally don’t always determine if a film is good or not. Case in point Crash, did horrible at the box office, but won an Oscar and overall made almost 15 times as much revenue as it cost to produce it.

“So if 200 million people want to watch a movie, no matter how bad it is, then they HAVE to see the only one playing and that movie will make a lot of money.”

Your comment is a direct result as to why DragonFail Evolution set box office records in Asia.

@ EnglishGavz

I just treat money as money, but when it comes to determining if a film is good or not ALL money is second rate to my opinion of if the film is good or not.

@EnglishGavz – Because international money is the accumulation of all ticket sales in teh world that are NOT in the USA. IF the money came from one or two sources then maybe but it comes from literally scores of countries. International sales are not a good indicator of how good a movie is because in the USA we have dozens of movies to choose from but in overseas they have maybe 1 or 2. If people want to see a movie, then they have limited options. So if 200 million people want to watch a movie, no matter how bad it is, then they HAVE to see the only one playing and that movie will make a lot of money.

Why do Americans treat international money as second rate money?

Oh God, please spare me this agony!

I already hate Prom Night to no end. This isn’t irony, this is something so much worse I even can’t name it at the moment.

But I’m still hoping this is a big April fools of the HBS’s because they might have crawled out of their smelly party caves one month too late.

By the way: how can someone reboot something that only has a history as big as a two hour movie? Last time I checked, Stallone was still well alive. You could put him on the slope again without the need of a wheelchair.

This doesn’t need rebooted, it was an awesome film just make a sequel or leave it alone.
