You don't remake great movies, you remake bad movies that had good ideas. I'm just going to be 100 percent honest, and say I'm speaking from an absolutely biased perspective. Anything that keeps Kevin Hart from remaking Uptown Saturday Night w/ Ice Cube like they were talking about after one of the Ride Along movies is fine with me. I'd rather have Hollywood destroy white classics than black classics. I'm saying this as someone who likes Kevin Hart too. IMO You can control Hollywood in general or you can control the lion's share of untouched classic films. You can't have both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure if you're defending the Frank Sinatra movie and calling the Clooney remake shit, or if you're defending the Clooney movie and putting down Ocean's 8. I liked the Clooney movie, never seen the Rat Pack version but it sounds like it was garbage and mostly improv, and Ocean's 8 was technically a sequel to the Clooney films.

I'm saying the Sinatra movie was a great idea that made a bad movie, and the Clooney film is the perfect remake because it took the same ideas and made it work beautifully and made boatloads of money.

Besides the songs by Sammy and Dean the first hour of the original Ocean’s 11 is brutal, but once the heist starts its fun. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True but that’s why those guys will always be 1,000 times more cool than George Clooney and Brad Pitt. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tabe Posted August 21, 2020 Share Posted August 21, 2020 “incredible cinematic experience” "score for Christopher Nolan’s #Tenet has now increased to 81% with 21 reviews. These two things don't really agree. If it's just such an incredible experience why were the reviews so low that they could go UP to 81% in the first place?

AxB Posted August 21, 2020 Share Posted August 21, 2020 Tenet is actually coming out at UK cinemas next weekend. I'm not at all enthused about seeing it (I strongly dislike what Chris Nolan has turned into), But I'm sorely tempted to go anyway, just because of all the people around the world who are desperate to see it and won't be able to.

Dolfan in NYC Posted August 21, 2020 Share Posted August 21, 2020 @AxB for what it's worth, I got to see the ~10 minute prologue before the IMAX Last Jedi... Yowsers it looked fucking amazing. I was all in in December. Ofcourse.... Everything since then... but still, it looks great. I can't wait for the US release, even if it is VOD.

I'm sure they will applaud you for your strength and tenderness if you get ill either at the hospital or at your gravesite. Sorry, I live in another country worse off, and this sounds like something someone here is bound to say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AxB Posted August 21, 2020 Share Posted August 21, 2020 I'm fairly sure I've already had CoVid-19, months ago. Working in retail with no PPE and no mask rule in shops until this month, I was pretty much on the front line of Boris' original Herd Immunity plan. Plus, y'know, my neighbour died of it in March. Can't see any way he was exposed and I wasn't. Although having said that, allegedly the antibodies wear off and you can catch it more than once, so me being brazen about being immune to it now wouldn't be the smartest move possible. The cinemas have mostly not opened, and the ones that have are at a fraction of capacity and doing social distancing and disinfecting after every show, so it's not like it's Deathmatch Circus or anything.
