D R E D D

Scarface
The Thing

Solaris :^)

Ghost in the Shell

Planet of the Apes trilogy

Unironically: True Grit

It feels like like a remake, and more like another adaptation of source material. Both versions work pretty well with each other. Obviously they have the same major plot points, but the performances are all really great and the movies focus on different aspects.
And I like the original Mattie. She's got spunk.

we are what we are

Oldboy if you actually understand cinema

>italian job

14 years later and all I remember is it being an extended commercial for Mini Coopers.

None of them are better than the original but if you mean better than the original series as a whole then sure. I mean, maybe.

yes soulbrotha we know

Dredd by far

Which version is your fave?

Manchurian Candidate
Dawn of the Dead

there's only two versions and this thread is "remakes better than the original".

>no The Departed
I'm impressed by the collective good taste of Sup Forums tonight

psycho
the departed

Dragon Tattoo
Roons killed that role

The Fly
Dawn of the Dead
Let Me In

...

Evil Dead 2. Which, despite the 2 in the title, is actually a remake and not a sequel.

...

2/10

The Parent Trap

That wasn't a remake though. It was just a new adaptation of the comic that had nothing to do with the Sly movie.

The Departed is a shit remake

No.

It is. It's a dumbed down version of the original.

t. gay weeb

The only way I will even entertain the possibility that you actually believe that is if you were born and raised in China. Were you?

the blob

tron

The Matrix

These.

No, I wasn't born in the USA; so I wasn't part of the potential market.

not a remake

Then I don't believe you. I can understand that there's a lot of cultural and language cues in the Chinese actors performances that are lost on me; but there is zero (0) chance that anyone else is picking up on those such that it is better.

I think both are great, but its undeniable The Departed is more relatable as a Westerner. And they really aren't that different other than that, have seen both many times.

scarface

It's not a bad movie in itself, it's bad as a remake.

Boston does not have the same feel of horizontality, the thriller becomes a drama, Walhberg's character is superflous. Religion is also presented more subtlely in Infernal Affairs.

Verticality*

Scarface sucks dick

What I like about this is that it works for both versions.

Scorsese is a hack. His movies are formulaic and dumbed down to the extreme.
