Count me in with Ross Douthat and Jonah Goldberg: this is just plain dumb. If the horrible remakes of Rollerball and Death Race 2000
taught us anything, it should have taught us this: don’t remake Seventies dystopia movies – which The Taking of Pelham One Two Three
most emphatically is.
I’d say “What next? Are they going to remake “The Warriors?” – except that I’ve yet to catch that one, actually. But if they do, it’ll still probably suck.
Logan’s Run is planned to be out in 2010. I bet Westworld is next.
Ugh. I think that they are doing Westworld; my eye is now twitching.
Could be worse, they could remake Zardoz.
Zardoz, Zardoz, Zardoz…

Damn you. Damn you filthy.
