# because it's cheaper and easier than making a new film
and they know people will pay to see it.

# I've just seen the bootleg of the trailer
Apparebntly they are 're-imagining' the backstory.

In other words they are gonna take bits and bobs of the first three and make a new movie.

They are even changing how he got the mask.

FFS Hollywood! STOP IT!

# the bonus of the whole situation is this:
Hollywood executives are a bunch of tossers who have the moral and artistic integrity of people who go to Cambodia for sexually touristic purposes...

SO - as someone who has both artistic AND moral integrity YOU are better qualified to know what makes a good film. Therefore, you should become a movie executive. The End.

is good, I'm prepared to forgive Hollywood almost anything.

# Watchmen will probably be very good - I really hope it is
although I still reckon it'll bomb in widespread terms, especially with the US audience.

episode 7 is up and available fella :)

# Yes, you're right, it probably will bomb, shame to say.
But I'm gleeing like a big gleeing thing on a happy joy day at the prospect of seeing it up on the big screen.


I'm torrencasted up on it now, so the whole process is automatic. Yay for free US TV!

# With the US audience, the following goes against them:
They'll have only just got rid of Bush, they don't need to see President ***** on screen to remind them of the bad old days.
The ending - the big event that happens at the end may well be too much for the US, especially in light of past events
To appeal to the audience in this time of superheroes on screen, it'll be classed as a superhero movie. Audiences like to see 'super' powers. - and there's only one character out of many with an actual 'super' power.
It'll go off very quickly, like 300 did. Good for a couple of weeks, but not worth watching time and time again.
The fanboys will get all giddy up to release, then the internet will rip it to shreds on every. last. feckin. detail. The sheer 'nerd' factor will put people off as they will think they have to know the story to appreciate it.
The inevitable spoof movie of it a few months later.

# Most people will take one look and go
"That's just the X-Men in different clothes" and go and see whatever fucking sequel or remake is showing on the next screen

Incoming:

The Thing
Evil Dead
Suspiria (in the balance)
Cannibal Holocaust (I shit you not)

# it wont matter how good it is
its such a geek thing that there is no way it can be made without upsetting everyone... just look at the new star trek movie... all the trailer showed was a guy doing some welding and everyone went mental because it was being built on earth

# actually
- unfortunately a remake/re imagining of something old and safe like this is probably likely to make more money than a completely new film... so you might not last long as an executive... until you can convince the public that they don't want to see rehashed crap.

# yup
the movie industry in America is not about making good films any more - it's about making something that's better than most the other shit that weekend. If you want a bigger budget release it in the summer or at Christmas... otherwise pick the week you're going to release on, work out how much on average you might make for that weekend, set your budget at half of that and BINGO you're making a movie.
