Welcome to Gaia! ::

I think our film industry in the US has taken a sad turn where they are more concerned with making the most money instead of creating a work of art. I, like you, will not see any remakes of other movies. I want to see something original come out, not more movies based on another person's creation.

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory was absolutely horrendous. I don't know where to even start on what went bad with that movie due to all of it being bad. The Oompa Loompa song made me cringe as well. The classic Oompa Loompa song will always remain in my heart.

I think I was just glad to get out of the cinema once that movie ended. It was extremely boring. I felt as though I wasted my money. emotion_facepalm

Poor Johnny Depp. What did they do to you!? He looked creepy.

I'm sad that you have told me about Drop Dead Fred. I never knew about this and now I feel like going on a rant again. Here goes! No one can play Drop Dead Fred as well as Rik Mayall did. He was brilliant. Also, he is really funny. I especially like the pirate scene from that movie ''PIRATES!!'' that part gets me all the time.

Russel Brand as Drop Dead Fred is something I would never have imagined.
Anyway, it doesn't matter. Good luck to him, but I won't be watching it.

I tend to watch the remakes.
Only to see if they're any good.

Most of the time, they aren't.

this is good or bad. theres two types of remakes.

1) the people are bringing back the movie either as like computer work so it looks nice and new again or havae people do the excate same thing as teh orginal movie. this is to keep old movies alive and show them to the youinger generation. because old movies are starting to break.

2) the other kind is when tehy take an old movie and change it like choclate factory. it annoys me when they make it lame and s**t. i hated that movie cuz it was weird and stuff.
