  1. Oldboy has one of the most laughable final acts I have ever seen in a film from any country and I see little chance of that making it through the remake process unscathed, must admit though that Spike Lee is an intersting choice.

     

    TBH though I don't really care either way since I think that Oldboy is amongst the most overrated films to come out of Asia, better then Thirst though (which rumor has it is also in line for a remake) which was just a massive bore.

  2. Transformers: Dark of the Moon.

     

    Watched it last night and have already forgotton a large chunk of what happened in other words typical Michael Bay oh the Fox replacment was hilariously bad and Sam spent a chunk of the film being a total bitch about everything.

     

    KoS Rating 4/10.

     

    <-- click on 'spoiler' to show/hide the spoiler

    The initial attack on the city after the Autobots are "banished" is the only memorable moment in the entire film

     

    [close spoiler]

    ");document.close(); everything else is simply forgetable or rubbish.

     

    Wish I went to see the new X-Men film instead.

  4. Cannibal Apocalypse

     

    One of the notorious video nasties and like many of them doesn't at all live upto it's status (I wouldn't be suprised if it was added to the list mainly because of the name thanks to Cannibal Holocaust) but still it's a just about watchable of it's time shlocker and at about 90 minutes doesn't out stay it's welcome plus it's dirt cheap on amazon.

     

    Gore hounds would be better off avoiding it but anyone looking for some brainless early 80's fun with a funky, out of place soundtrack could do much worse.

     

    KoS Rating: 6/10

  5. Speaking of pointless remakes

    What makes a remake pointless?

     

    Insert standard cries of Hollywood being lazy and out of ideas here.

     

    In typical fashion places like imdb are now flooded with the original is perfect leave it alone type posts even though Fright Night really isn't that great sure it's pretty fun in parts (less said about the sequel the better) but it's hardly the most memorable of films for me and mush like a lot of 80's products has aged badly.

     

    It looks like one of the more interesting remakes to me.
