i can't remember what i thought of pan's labyrinth but uhhh yip this is a remake so it can't be a ripoff. the whole idea is to reproduce the original in a more marketable way so you can't really say that at all! i mean i think it's a shitty idea and why would anybody want to make a movie that has already been made (hollywood...makem me sick) but there's also the upside that it will alert a lot more people to the original film which is a pretty cool film so why not who cares it's a movie they're all just stupid entertainers. your post is pretty hilarious, bud! an insult to the spanish?
the only reason i can think to do a remake of a movie is if it's really old or really poorly done, but the concept is fantastic
like, if you take some old black and white film and essentially update it, but still keep the same vibe and feel and...EVERYTHING
the other one is if the idea behind the movie was great but the movie itself was REALLY BAD and someone doesn't want the idea to go to waste
the problem is pretty much no remakes fall into either of these categories, but what i am saying is that there ARE good reasons to make a remake, just no one does it
