But she's really not a fresh face.

Not sure you understand the meaning behind the term "fresh face", or at least how it's being used in this instance.

Resemblance, or one's opinion of resemblance to someone else isn't the point. Ridley is new to just about everyone, and certainly to big budget productions or well known characters - hence her 'freshness'.

Nope. It's not Death Wish without Charles Bronson.

What made Death Wish interesting was it took place in NYC when crime was rampant. Pre-Bernie Goetz, that was the real Death Wish. I'd like to see Hollywood make a film about him instead. Feel the Bern. Goetz 2016. :p

Starman remake...

Starman is one of my favorite films and John Carpenter's best as its so unlike his other action/violent work. Great soundtrack too. I think a remake could work but I'd do it as a television series instead. There was an actual television series that followed the film and though it was popular with its fans but didn't last long on the air.

Starman, also one of my all time favorite flicks and a young Karen Allen was just stunning! :wub: but if this indeed true I can't say I have a great deal of confidence that a re-make will actually be any good.. :unsure:

When did we reach the "limit of ideas" in film production? Everything now is a remake, sequel or has been done before.

So the new thing is get a film or film series and turn it into a TV series.

How long till we get die hard the tv series or fast and furious the TVs series.

That looks quite polished, a machine gun toting bear and a speedy guy with over sized scimitars, nice.

All we need is a set of subs and we are go.

I went from having no interest to having interest. The trailer feels right.

Hmmm.........yeah I'm a huge fan of the original and was extremely skeptical when I heard about the remake, but the trailer has me intrigued.

I'm kinda interested in this, as long as the action choreography is good for both the gunfights and hand-to-hand stuff. And by good I mean reasonably realistic and showing a decent level of skill. I hope they put the actor playing Riggs through some proper training. Presumably if it follows the movies, he's supposed to be an ex-Special Forces guy.

I'll watch it. I fully intend to not like it, but I'll watch it.

It's HBO so expect lots of porn sex.

More like expect a little bit but not a lot. They seem to add one scene for a 2 hour movie but the percentage goes way down in a regular series (Rome excepted though I didn't watch much of it so perhaps it did decrease later).

I find myself morbidly curious
