I wasted an hour & a half of my life on the muddled mess that was THE
WOLFMAN remake. Now that movie didn't just blow, it blew
goats.....crappy, CGI animated goats. (Note to Universal....finish the
f**king script before you start filming the movie.) I saw the film with
a bunch of 20-something acquaintances whose taste in movies is pretty
low-brow, and even they knew it was a furry piece of lycanthropic doody..
A great cast, pissed away. Did the movie make any money? It lurked
around the theaters like a derelict in a raincoat for a few weeks,
meaning it must have generated some sort of dough....

The original CLASH was exactly what it was meant to be.. a grade B or
C fun time. And Olivier as Zeus?? perfect casting... i'm sure Liam
Neeson doesnt hold a candle to that performance..
I am seeing it this week, at the DGA here in los angeles. It may be
awful, the 3D may "blow" (to quote someone else), or it may not. i'm
also interested in the CG FX used for creatures like Medusa and The
Kraken. Again, the original utilized the amazing stop motion animation
of Ray Harryhausen-- so for that reason alone, Franc, the original was
worth taking a look at.
How many remakes have been ridiculous or lacking? Many-- thats for
sure. One that comes to mind most recently is THE WOLFMAN. it tried
but failed in many respects. After seeing i, it was obvious why it was
shelved for about a year after it's initial release date.
