Michael Clarke Duncan...good call. Maybe Jim Carey as Murdoch and George Clooney as Hannibal.

The A team remake will be in theaters this year. Has Liam Neeson as Hannibal.

 

I was just irked that they cast Quentin Jackson (UFC fighter 'Rampage Jackson') as BA, not because he'll do a bad job, the role is almost appropriate, but because it caused him to walk away from the fight with Rashad Evans... a fight I wanted very much to see.

Got to walk where the money is!

 

Yeah, I know. Still... fuck that, I want to see a fight. :)

 

I an tempted to say I'd love to see remakes, in the same style, of Casablanca, Key Largo, and the Maltese Falcon...but I am sure they would suck.

 

The thing is, most remakes are bad. I mean fucking awful. They're expressions of greedy execs trying to milk some extra cash out of something already 'known.'

 

But - when they're not, and when done well, can be a good thing (personally though, I think Casablanca should be off limits - you're talking sacrilege now)

 

Let me think... remakes or reinterpretations that weren't bad...

 

the Departed (remake of Hong Kong film: Infernal Affairs)

the Magnificent Seven (remake of Kurosawa's: Seven Samurai)

3:10 to Yuma

Thomas Crowne Affair

Vanilla Sky

King Kong

The Fly

The Thing

Cape Fear

ocean's 11

Scarface

etc. etc. etc....
