The original 'We Are the World' was something new, impressive and was an instant hit, by American singers and bands.  It was done a few years after the British bands and singers made 'Feed the World'.  Since then, there has been a few others, but have not done well.

In making this for the people of Haiti and to bring in more aid for them, they choose to remake 'We are the World' instead of writing and composing a new song.  Oh wel... 

The first one was better.


However, we didnt see the entire song and video at the Openinig Ceremonies.  It was just a small part of it.  I believe the full video starts tomorrow.

Longest yard, yet another example of a remake that was pathetic and should never have been made....
I dont mind the ones as much where todays special effects and advancements make for a better and/ or more realistic end result....
see since i never watched the first one i kinda enjoyed it....recently i heard they r gonna remake "the party" with peter sellers...with mike myers in it...BUT peter sellers sooo nailed that part (without tech advancements) that i think its futile...
however a new audience is prolly gonna like it...my girls nephews loved the new willie winka (with jonny depp)..i however prefer the old one.....king kong got redone although i never thought it'd happen
bwloe is a list of movies currently being remade
