[alboneceleste]

Now I'm old. The Neverending Story was one of my faves as a kid. WHY in the world do they think they need to remake that?

[TJ Wells]

He assured me that this was going to be a kick ass action movie, first and foremost; Ellsworth had just come from a five hour brainstorming session with director Dan Bradley - the second unit director and stunt coordinator for the Bourne films, among others - and the writer said that the action scene ideas were coming fast and furious. Bradley wants to bring a visceral impact to the movie, using a lot of handheld and bringing you right into the action, as opposed to Milius' glossier version.


That actually sounds kinda promising.

[ThePartialGlow]

Part of the appeal of The Neverending Story is the nostalgia factor. The lousy special effects, the costumes, the MUSIC...they better not mess this up.

[gloriousmuse]

I don't mind a Neverending Story remake. Hopefully they won't make Artax die because that part still leaves me in tears lol

[domotime2]

deep down im pissed.......but ill see it. (Neverending story that is)

[Andy K]

A remake of The Neverending Story is just blasphemous.

Agreed. Hollywood, stop ruing my childhood!

[love_american_style]

the Warriors will be terrible.

[drudo182]

I actually like the idea of The Neverending Story remake.

[SingleDoubt]

the Warriors will be terrible.

it's not even a remake. hell, not even a re-imagining. they just took the name and put it on a movie loosely based around some of the plot points of the Warriors

[poppa Q]

Wow. Who would even want to remake Total Recall?

[valencourt]

wow. the Goo Goo Dolls were right.... reruns all become our history.

[Justin_stacy]

WHY in the world do they think they need to remake that?

$$$$$$$$$

[Justin_stacy]

Its about time everybody else had to suffer through what all us horror fans have been going through for the past 10 years.

Michael Bay can burn in hell for all I care.



:explode:

[drag_in_d_flat]

lol

[Foxholes]

Alien? (http://chud.com/articles/articles/19628/1/IN-SPACE-NO-ONE-CAN-HEAR-YOU-SCREAM-BECAUSE-THEY039RE-REMAKING-ALIEN/Page1.html) is it even worth getting upset about? Come-frickin-on.

[SilenceBrokenTT]

Just read this today...

[coryatlarge]

i think the red dawn remake will be kinda cool :shrug:

[jawstheme]

I just don't understand why people can't make their own movies.

[derekmoyer4]

remakes only further the theory that hollywood is having increasing difficulty in developing new ideas.

[aloneatlastnj]

add Flight of the Navigator (http://www.filmschoolrejects.com/news/arrested-development-writer-relaunching-flight-of-the-navigator.php) to the list as well!

[cantnokdahustle]

I would be much more understanding of "the wells running dry," if it didn't seem as though Fox were hell bent on destroying great stories, and making mediocre ones bad.

No way in hell Slap Shot is any good. Terrible idea to remake it.

[alboneceleste]

music is heading in the same direction, all anyone does these days is sample. (radio play anyway)

definitely with radio play. radio has become too bland, which is why i very rarely listen to it.

[WakingTheMisery]

They should make a movie about the unoriginality of Hollywood.

[starseed]

If you start with the assumption that every idea is finite and will eventually be exhausted, you can justify any shitty decision you care to name!

[holyballs]

Slap Shot remake is blasphemy.

[stayillogical]

Watching the Artax scene in Neverending Story as an adult is disturbing. How does a kid's movie have such an intense scene and more importantly, how did we deal with that when we first saw it? I'm pretty sure that's filed under repressed memories.

[NoOneRunsFaster]

remakes only further the theory that hollywood is having increasing difficulty in developing new ideas.

That plus seeing that a lot of major movie releases are based on books and comics.

It saddens me that most of the books that actually get purchased at my work (target) are the ones being made into movies.

[Bloodsucker II]

whyyyyyyyyyyyyy

[Bloodsucker II]

I just got the never ending story on dvd. i hope it doesnt suck now that im older.

Next thing you know they're gonna re-make E.T.

Did you get the two-pack that has neverending story 1 and 2?

[Bloodsucker II]

Did you get the two-pack that has neverending story 1 and 2?

lol, yes. but i might as well throw number 2 away because it's garbage.

[NoOneRunsFaster]

lol, yes. but i might as well throw number 2 away because it's garbage.

I have them both on vhs and can't really justify re-buying them on dvd.

[Bloodsucker II]

my vhs is no where to be found so i had to get it!

i totally agree. no one knows what a good book is anymore, unless it is also a movie. we live in a society full of idiots.

[samsara]

They cant re-make the never ending story.

[a nice person]

remakes can be good (as long as you haven't seen the original and never do)

[kafe]

Let the Right One In comes to mind, but I don't wanna get yelled at by Jason again so I won't bring that up.

Neverending Story will be such a hit or miss, it could awesome and get a whole new generation to see it, I bet kids today laugh at the original because of the "awful" effects and stuff.
