Ok. Stop it. All of you. Stop remaking movies. Stop remaking good foreign films to suit lame American audiences who refuse to read subtitles. Stop remaking classic American films because the youth doesn’t understand why there is no color or nudity.
Now, the picture above creates a new issue. DO NOT REMAKE A THREE YEAR OLD FILM, THAT IS ALREADY IN ENGLISH. Sure, it was technically a British film; and yeah, it was played mostly at art house theaters and didn’t make money. But you know what? Sometimes the best films out there aren’t seen, or don’t make money. They are the ones I still try to call art versus just being a product.
Death at a Funeral (2007) was art. Death At a Funeral (2010) will be a shitty, knock-off product.

OOF

SORRY DUDES. I will see this movie before I see whatever other movie with which it shares a title.
ETA: I’m glad to see that Loretta Devine is FINALLY GETTING THE FIRST BILLING SHE DESERVES.

I’m not kidding. I want to see this. And part of me wonders if people (not anyone who posted this here, I just mean in general) assume it’s going to be a bad movie because it’s a “black” movie. I’m sick of remakes too, honestly. Like super sick of them. But I think it’s a lot more interesting to take them and make them for a different demographic, and mine new territories than to literally remake them, just shinier and updated. I’m stoked on this. Plus, I like a lot of the people in it.
