is nothing sacred anymore lol

No. As far as I know, the only things that are "sacred" are items that hold some religious significance, not novels and films.

People crack me up with their "Oh no, they're RUINING IT" hysteria when it comes to remakes.

thats cause remakes are usually complete gaff...i mean look at the remake of Prom Night.

but...

in saying that the only remakes i actually liked were Dawn Of The Dead and The Texas Chainsaw Massacre

Every topic about a remake turns into a "remakes are evil!" discussion. So before it starts, can we please stop the talk about remakes in general and just talk about Zombie's movies and the other Blob movies. Please?


From an interview with Dee Snider and Fangoria.

TIMPONE: There’s a big Internet story going around that you’re directing a remake of THE BLOB. Any truth to that?
ZOMBIE: Yeah, that’s true. Someone came to me, and it was a budget way beyond anything I’ve ever worked with, and said, “You can do anything you want,” which of course are always the magic words to me. Because I’m gonna do it anyway, so they might as well just prepare themselves. What I love about it is that it’s cool, it’s a science fiction movie, it’s something different.

TIMPONE: How will it be different than the first two BLOBs?
ZOMBIE: Whatever they did, I want to do the exact opposite. I’m not really a fan of either of those movies.

TIMPONE: The ’80s remake, too?
ZOMBIE: I don’t even remember it. I remember that Kevin Dillon was in it, that’s all.

lets just wait and see.....:)

I thought the '80s version was better than the original. The tone of The Blob seems to be antithesis to Zombie's style, however, so I'm curious as to his approach of the story.

I'll go see it. I used to hate Zombie's movies until H2, which completely blew me away. And who cares if he changes the way the Blob looks? He changed Michael Myers and he looked TERRIFYING in the remake and sequel.

The orginal Prom Night sucked. I havnt seen the remake, not because its a remake, it just didnt look good, so I skiped it.



Anyway..... "OH NOEZ, NOT THE BLOB.....WATZ NEXT ATTACK OF THE KILLER TOMATOES".

Dont you anti-remake people get tired of typing the same old thing over and over? It usually looks like this.

:mad::mad:______________ is going to ruin________________. __________is sacred. :mad::mad:

They're not sacred, just movies. You didnt have anything to do with thier being made, you just like to watch them, thats it. Grow up.





Anybody that thinks The Blob is scared has bigger problems than Im trained to deal with.

so people who dont like remakes have to grow up???

why? I just dont like them (apart from two), I hardly even like cover songs.

why do some people get angry about silly things?

He's referring to the folks that get angry over the fact that a movie they like is being remade. Not the people who avoid remakes, the folks who say "Rob Zombie is a fucking hack, he bent Michael Myers and Halloween over a table and fucked him beyond recognition! He deserves to be shot in the fucking face!"
