Magnificent Seven was a great film though...Sad news out of hollywood... They are remaking Magnificent Seven, already in filming........ http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2404435/ Directed by Antoine Fuqua Cast has Denzel, Chris Pratt, Matt Bomer, Vincent D'oforio, Ethan Hawke Same guy who did Training Day,Equalizer, Southpaw,
Kurowasa was a friggin master. Guess it took them like a friggin month to shoot the battle scene in the rain. Also an interesting fable about that period of Japanese history.
Great.... Another classic movie ruined by rebooting. If they ever try to remake Casablanca, I'm going to hollywood with a fully loaded AK and go looking for the screenwriters. The art of making a great Western has long since faded. These days, I have a feeling the new M7 will be set in some urban locale. Not only did TM7 have a great cast, it had a simple premise that made it easy to make and film. I can only hope they don't fck this up.
Ha! Love The Treasure Of The Sierra Madre. Maybe my vote for best pic, gun to my head. Watched it many, many times and have it saved on DVR. Along with The Asphalt Jungle...another Huston classic. The Man Who Would Be King is yet another great one by Huston that i recently saved from TCM Also the Alfred Hitchcock movies are great. To name some more, among so many
Sounds like this remake will also take place in the West Plot: Seven gun men in the old west gradually come together to help a poor village against savage thieves. haha, don't worry it isn't Seven gangsters coming together to save a neighborhood in south side Chicago
Thanks Poe! I needed a good laugh!!!!! I believe that plot was already done with Jim Brown, Pam Grier and Fred Williamson in "Original Gangsters".
One of my favorite comedies they never show iany more is Used Cars with Kurt Russell. It's one Robert Zemekis's best films but never gets any time. Favorite line..... That's Too ---ckin HIGH!
Yeah. Hollywood made some great comedies back then. Now nobody laughs anymore, it's against the law I think.
That's partly because whatever the joke is, some asshole is going to be "offended" and cry about it on CNN.
Hobbes you have just redeemed yourself forever and for all time with this. Great movie. "Get in the mother fucking car" "What would a senator do?" Classic.
I love when they set him on fire and drive him through the parking lot. Thanx bro. I can't tell you how much $$$ Cheryl Rixon wasted in stained socks...lol...prob explains my predilection for blondes. all this talk about Used Cars,.and no mention of Lenny and Squiggy? Really?
