    I swear to everything holy, if I find out they're remaking Goonies next I'm going to go Postal. :biggun:

    I feel like Hollywood is going out of their way to ruin just about every movie I loved as a kid.

    The original is one of my favorite movies, this remake looks pretty good.

    Agreed !!!

    I caught the last few minutes of Foot Loose. I was wondering why would you bother to remake that as I watched in horror ??? I thought it sucked the first time. Then I seen Dennis Quaid in it. I've always liked Dennis Quaid. He can do much better then this !!!!!

    Heard in an interview a while back it was China at first, but the studio changed it to Korea and re made parts so they could release it in the Chinese market.

    They just cannot come up with anything original anymore. If it looks ok I will wait for it on red box. I do not see how it could be half ad good as the original though.

    I think it looks awesome. Remaking movies doesn't bother me. The first Red Dawn is one of my favorite and this looks like a good movie also.
