why oh why

Have Hollywood not learned yet that remaking movies doesn't work.......... Oldboy is next in line, how could u improve that movie an bring it to a wider audience... You couldn't simple as that, it is so amazing because its made an acted by extremely talented people, as is the whole vengeance trilogy. They're like Mona lisa's or a Jackson Pollack. No one goes round coping them an hanging them up in national galleries saying here's a Pollack we've improved it slightly touched it up etc. No you've ruined it.

I of no actor who could play Choi Min-sik or Lee Byung-huns characters or direct it as good as Kim Ji-woon. I honestly feel that Korean films have changed my perspective of movies. From a person who just sat there and watched to a person who now goes on a journey with the characters from beginning to end, and I leave the movie with something. These films are completely untouchable and should stay that way. Just the same as I wouldn't want deer hunter, taxi driver, apocalypse now, etc remaking.

Have some integrity, imagination and balls to really make some fantastic films...

Oh one more thing, I love video games have done all my life, an I would love to see some of the great games transcend to film but I know in my heart it doesn't work, here's a little extract from one insider on assassins creed. Glad someone as some sense at Ubisoft.

The baffling deal between Sony Pictures and Ubisoft to bring Assassin's Creed to the silver screen guarantees the project will fail, according to Hollywood insiders.

With so many game-to-film adaptations taking shocking liberties with the source material --Super Mario Bros. anyone? -- Ubisoft wanted to ensure that its blockbuster Assassin's Creed series would be handled with care in its transition to the big screen. When the publisher struck up a deal with Sony Pictures, it was specifically under the proviso that the film company would give Ubisoft complete creative control.

That alone guarantees that the film will never see the light of day, according to a Vulture report.
