We are the World - the new rendition
« on: February 12, 2010, 05:58:27 PM »
Watching the opening ceremonies at the Olympics...they just played the new rendition on "We are the world"....I know its for a good cause, and maybe I'm just old school....but IMO, it sucked monkey balls...are you kidding me?

Some things should just be left alone...it would be like trying to remake Animal House.

That's got FAIL written all over it.  Can't believe they're foolish enough to try it.  Is nothing sacred?

Some movies represent a time and a place as much as the originality of what the show/ movie was....remaking movies almost always sucks because there is no point in re-doing it...cant really think of one good remake.

I watched 2012 last night, although not a remake, that was one of the WORST movies I have ever seen

You don't think any of the Halloween remakes were good?

Holy fuck, 2012 was HORRIBLE!! I understand some movies have to be a little over the top, but this movie was WAY over the top. Totally stupid.

I'm talking reletively modern...wasnt the original made in the early 40's?

That said, there are some old flicks that also fall into the category of "shouldnt be touched"...like the ten commandments, gone with the wind, citizen Kane, etc..

Good case and point: Original "Planet of the apes" VS that horrible remake

Yeah, but the Halloween remake by Rob Zombie was pretty good.

Part of the problem is that if you were old enough to see the original, it takes on a different feel....I remember the original Halloween when it came out and it was cool because it was something new and original...the remakes were trash

I guess it can be different for someone who saw the original when it was first released.
