Okay....
But why bitch? You wanna see the original go back and watch it, just ignore the remake, that's it. Very easy.

I was not bitching at you so don't get paranoid, I was saying in general, people wanna bitch about remakes, don't see them. Your not involved in Hollywood, don't bitch about what you can't control.

Yeah, it's not gonna do you any good, and since the original dosen't sound that great anyways, i'm not really against a remake of it at all.

The original is a near flawless movie.
But I understand why some people bitch about all the remakes. Some people just think when they make a remake that fucking sucks it does a disservice to the original film, which they love. I'm not really one of those people, but I get it. Maybe I will feel differently if they ever try to make a remake of Phantasm.

I have long championed the fact that people bitch (and I'm including myself in this so I'm not keeping myself out of it) that it's the sheer number of films being remade when they can better use that talent, creative energy and money to make an entirely brand new movie that follows along the same genre guidelines but is in actuallity not a remake.
Look at the early 80s slasher boom for example. Those were essentially remakes of each other with a different cast and different locations (well, that's debatebale with the campground/forest slashers, but you get my point) yet no one bitched about them at all because the films were conditioning people to think of them as different films yet were still common enough that fans who liked one could enjoy this one.
I believe if we had that mentality today, we wouldn't be bitching as much about 'remakes.' We'd be bitching about rip-offs, but I think it's much more acceptable in our circles to be a rip-off than a remake.

It's pretty easy to follow, you just don't have to have your head up your ass about the subject to be able to figure it out.

My head is not up my ass, just because I don't cry over something I cannot control does not mean my head is up my ass.

Well, it seems it at times.
And you do have control: don't see them in theaters, but watch them on DVD or cable, like I do. I'm telling them that I don't want to see remakes of films being sent to theaters, but that I still want to see horror films being made.

Seriously people bitched about remakes 5 years ago, it is old, I am embarresed at the few who still bitch about them. Plus the original is there, plenty of non remakes are being made and if anyone does not know that then they know shit about the genre.
