I find Ring 2 strange. Sequel to a remake, that was originall based on a book. When you know Hollywood is dead

that's for sure; anyway i would go see it...just to find out if they fuck this one up as well

Yeah, I'm more excited about Romero's Land Of The Dead then any DOD remake sequel.

Im excited about anything with fuckign zombies these days. Im sick of slashers. i know i have defended scream in other threads, im just tired of it's bastard children.

i hear you loud and clear ..

zombies are the real deal ... they never get old ..

I think it's really sad that this sequel will be made, yet Romeros own (reckoning, twilight, land or whatever) can barely get interest. At least let the man get in on the renewed Zombie fest that is only in existence because of Romero himself.

It just sucks. More zombies for the a.d.d crowd I guess....

Who says Romeros new films won't get interest??

If you ask me, they'll be the ones I'm looking out for above ANYTHING else...I'm 23 now, and although night and dawn are a little before my time, I've seen and loved both....as for those that don't recognise romeros freshness, reputation, and godlike moviemaking status - Fuck 'em.

Romero himself has told me he has had virtually no interest from production houses, and couldn't gain the financing he needs for the next chapter. He was hoping that if anything good could come out of the remake (which he didn't like), it would clear the way for him to gain support for his movie. Now with this sequel being announced, either he hasn't received interest, or he is directing the sequel himself.

In terms of fandem, he always has that type of hardcore support. Which makes you wonder what the hell the studios are looking at.

Well, its like I always say:

Actually, he's got the backing and he's filming it right now. After the DOD remake made lots of money, a studio greenlighted "Land Of The Dead" and "Diamond Dead" right away. Unfortunately, Tom Savini won't be doing the FX, KNB will.

The DOD remake was pretty cool, it could have been an awesome zombie film with a change of title and a change of location.
