Anyone seen Quarantine??? Guffaw!
 
This film, a remake of last years REC...is ****ing ridiculous
It made me laugh the whole way through
anyone else seen it?

I really want to see it as it just came out where I live! But now I'm not so sure... it was really that bad?

FireInCairo 12-10-2008 02:56 AM

It is every bit as bad
it alternates between being really boring and really funny
and the camera work is so try hard....and freaking annoying (and I like blairwitch)

Mmm yeah Blairwitch was a pretty alright movie, it seems that all these "copycat" films where the whole amateur hand-held camera thing is employed turn out to be ultimate fails. I wonder what other people on the boards thought of it...

Yet again another example of Hollywood's inability to make a decent remake. Let's hope that Death Race is a n exception to the rule. It stars Jason Statham, so it at least merits a watch :D

I'm looking forward to The Day The Earth Stood Still - another remake. Of a 1950s film that I loved. Hope I'm not let down.

Oh god no, that looks like another balls up. The original is classic and this just looks overblown. If it was'nt a remake it might be a good film but the original was about the emotional connection between the boy and the robot. This looks like it's about blowing stuff up :(

I know you're probably right. This makes me sad. But I'm such a sucker for old sci-fi films that I get excited when they get remade.

There was rumours years ago that they were going to remake the classic Sinbad films (Golden Voyage etc) but I'm glad they did'nt. I love those movies and Ray Harryhausen (stop motion F/X) is a genius. He did them all on his own in his garage sometimes taking up to four months for 5 minutes of screen time.

Really! Man I am glad they didn't remake those movies, too. They're classics. I didn't know about the whole doing it in his garage thing, that's crazy.
