This is one of those situations where I could not be persuaded to make a donation of an airborne act of carnal knowledge regarding whether they remake this. Hollywood is really that hard up for ideas that they need to remake a film that’s less than 20 years old?

Yeah, apparently they can't be bothered getting in any new writers with 'new' ideas, I guess that would cost them most money than just blatantly ripping off something that's already been done, in some cases more than others, something that's been done 10 million times.

Oh goody. Another craptastic remake. Let me guess. They're looking at the Rock for the male lead. Or maybe John Cena. Add Lindsay Lohan & we got ourselves one hot hideous mess.
Why can't Hollywood get a clue? Or an original idea? Like Tony said of all the books out there, this is what they come up with?
