The Manchurian Candidate was one of the most thought provoking and disturbing movies of all time, and now the remake is coming out. While I am very pessimistic of the remake, with a pretty good cast and similar modern day events surrounding the movie, it could perhaps work.
If the movie is able to capture 1/100 of the original, it should prove to be the sleeperhit of the year.
Most anticipated scene of the year -- The GIs get displayed like science projects to a group of bad guys displaying their brainwashing. If you have never seen the original with Sinatra/Lansbury, go out and rent it now, and then tell me you arent interested in at least seeing how bad they ruin the remake
