Hey look! It's the same thing all over again!

Pop Candy's Whitney Matheson says, "Welcome to Remake City." Hollywood is doing it again. And again and again.

Poseidon. Revenge of the Nerds. The House on Haunted Hill. Doesn't Hollywood make anything original anymore?
Well said indeed, Whitney. Why don't they make more movies from Elmore Leonard novels? I just finished another one, and I haven't read a bad one yet.

If they remake the 5th Element, Chuck can be Zorg.


I'll be Aknot.

Ahhh. But was the first poseidon on IMAX?

Chuck would be a great Zorg. I want to be Leeloo. I could do it.

Give 'em time. Maybe if they remake Episodes I through III, they'll be as good as the original New Hope through Return. But then will the new New Hope through Return be as good as the original New Hope through Return? Or at least as good as the already-kinda-remade New Hope through Return?

Head spinning...

They need to remake 4-6.
