    Maybe this time, GAR could get his people back together, re-write his own script, and put Savini at the helm of that one....just like he did with NOTLD back in 1990?

    Then the head honchos will step in and be like "No! We want Uwe Boll directing, Jim Dudelson producing, Paul W.S. Anderson writing".

    Well, seeing as how GAR and the Pittsburgh Pimp Squad pretty much were the head honchos the first time around, I doubt they'd replace themselves.

    But....seeing how it all turned out in 1990 (not to mention with Land in 2005), it couldn't be any worse with the guys you mentioned becoming involved with the project.

    Somehow I think this remaking fad will be over within the next 10 years, easy. With 3-D making a comeback, guaranteed that will be the new fad. We'll have all the old movies re-released as 3-D versions. Remakes are a fad, fads have limited shelf lives. Plus it'd be retarded to remake Land a mere 10 years after it came out, not even Hollywood is that dumb.

    Of course, I already know that you are one of the ones that doesn't like "Land"....but what was wrong with "Night90"? That was the best remake yet, in my opinion. Also the one that stayed true to the source material.

    That is how "Dawn" should have been re-made.

    Indeed, while I'm not much of a fan of Night90, if only it had been allowed to have the gore left in ... and that useless actress playing Judy Rose had been able to act!!! ... then it might have been a better flick. It's still hilarious to see the rubber version of Johnny hit the tombstone, so very funny.

    But yep, it was the best GAR remake to date, obviously helped by GAR being involved as well as Savini and a couple of other Romero-ites, more of an inbred feel rather than farming it out to people who write sh*t like Scooby-f*ckin'-Doo...

    Personally, MZ...I think it's stupid to constantly try to knock James Gunn for Scooby Doo.

    It's not like that was his masterpiece or anything. He didn't write the script and carry a torch for the project his whole life.

    He was hired to do a job, and he did it...the same way GAR was hired to direct SK's work a couple of times.

    The only difference between the two is that Scooby Doo was a major success, while GAR found only limited success with his adaptations.

    those pills must be really kicking in.
    Scooby Doo was NOT a "major success" by any means....unless you count all the people that bought the VHS, ripped the guts out and used it to cover the bottom of their pidgeon coop.

    Burny, I have an idea.....go pop in your betamax copy of Bad News Bears, stare blandly at your little black and white Zenith and drink a few more Shlitz's.

    And isn't that the great thing about democracy, everyone has their right to express their opinion as well as hold it. My opinion is that James Gunn is a wanker who can't write for sh*t, Yawn04 illustrates this time and time and time again. Scooby Doo, 30 mil short of it's own bloated budget on opening weekend? Sounds like a classic Hollywood "flop" to me (using their yard stick).

    You can't exactly compare GAR's SK adaps with Scooby-frickin'-Doo either. GAR's were adult horror films, Poopy Doo was a family film and had a feather pillow ride through the system in comparison to GAR's work.

    Nobody said it wasn't, or that you couldn't.

    Uh...since when does a movie have to make its entire budget back on opening weekend in order to be considered a success?

    Scooby Doo made a total of $153,294,164 in the United States alone. Then (since Land supporters have to throw in their own overseas sales to prove that it was some sort of a success) it made another $122,356,539....for a world-wide grand total of $275,650,703.

    GAR never saw numbers like that ever....and never will.

    As for the rest....

    Hey...you're the one who brought Scooby Doo up in the first place. If you can't compare the two, why do you keep on mentioning it?

    Uhh....Burny, you're the one that's always saying that how much a film makes is what determines how good it is.

    Which, anyone in their right mind can tell you that's ridiculous....

    Minion doesn't like Yawn04 or the people that created it and many people agree with him, just like you don't like "Land" and there are people that agree with you. Why keep having this argument again and again?....the outcome is always the same.

    I was bringing up Poopy Doo as an example of Gunn's previous writing, just because some kids go see it, doesn't mean it's a work of art (Titanic, which raked in over a billion in the end was voted worst film of all time a couple of years ago).

    I never compared Poopy Doo to GARs work in the first place.

    Nobody said it wasn't, or that you couldn't.
    I was making a statement in general.

    And obviously GAR won't see numbers like that, because he makes ADULT rated movies, mainly in the horror genre, that see comparably limited distribution. Poopy Doo, like I said before, is a mainstream, Hollywood, family film - therefore the target audience is scattergun wide. GAR's flicks target a core audience.

    And making a stack of cash doesn't mean the product is any good, look at Paris Hilton.

    I always hear/read this....but I like "Titanic". I don't see what all the gripe is about. True, the love story gets a bit cheesey in a few parts, but overall it's a well made film.
