Maybe next year.'" HAHAH! That would be so awesome! “I swear, one year they should be like ‘Sorry last year there were no good movies, thus there will be no oscars this year. Maybe next year.’”

I remember the first time that I saw this, it was a few months after the hugh power outage on the east coast of the US, and I remember how real the power outage sceen was. For all it's CG magic, that's something that modern Hollywood can't seem to do anymore, make things feel real.

I swear, one year they should be like “Sorry last year there were no good movies, thus there will be no oscars this year. Maybe next year.”

The Day the Earth Stood Still is my favorite sci-fi movie of all time. it pains me to no end to think that it would be remade today. They would remove all the political commentary and add unnecessary explosions and various other crap. This is an incredible movie. It came out at a time when people were still in the red scare and this movie helped make people aware of what was really going on. They'd never get away with that today. I can honestly say this is a very painful piece of news. I believe that Darth Vader said it best: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hell, put Gort in silver spandex again for al I care. If the characters are solid, I won't fault Hollywood for remaking it. Old films can be given a fresh coat of paint without ruining them, but knock down the walls and then we're gonna have fisticuffs!

But WHY spend megabucks on a remake of a classic genre film and then PHUCK IT UP???? What they should really do... .is take some semi-classic B-movies, you know that "great idea, badly done" stuff out there... and do it RIGHT. I mean really <i>kick it's ass.</i> Banzai!
