Is this what Blake Griffin does while nursing thumb injuries?

 

[HanSolo]

This oughta be good.

inb4 michael b jordan main character

 

[SirPaste]

This thread will probably be more entertaining than the movie

 

[izzy]

Absolutely disgusting

 

[KesselBuiltMyHotrod]

 

[End on a Hinote]

Blake Griffin is only half white. He can partially jump.

 

[Scandale du Jour]

I love that movie. Leave my childhood alone Hollywood.

 

[chicagoskycam]

Don't see any of these, only problem I have is when someone refers to said movie I have to know if it's the original or remake. That's annoying!

 

[Rabid Ranger]

Let me guess-Channing Tatum?

 

[Miamipuck]

Let me guess-Channing Tatum?

Yeah and they make Jonah Hill a black man.


I have one question with regard to this remake: Why?

 

[ProstheticConscience]

Huh. Maybe I should finally get around to seeing the first one.

Nah...

 

[Brodeur]

Huh. Maybe I should finally get around to seeing the first one.

Nah...

The whole band is white except for Jimi. It's a fun movie, but maybe would fast forward the Gloria scenes.

"Let's pick a movie out of a hat and remake it just to show that we can."

 

[x Tame Impala]

What's next, a remake of "Cable Guy"?

 

[chicagoskycam]

Yeah and they make Jonah Hill a black man.


I have one question with regard to this remake: Why?

Cause stuff people identify with sells tickets. Obviously it's working or else they wouldn't be doing it.

Probably easier to get these projects green lit as well.

 

[Natey]

I find it hilarious that people get so bent out of shape about the see. Who cares? Don't watch it. Makes no difference to the original. Literally zero difference. It doesn't wreck a legacy or whatever nonsense.

Most remakes do suck. But there's also been plenty of good ones. Sometimes better, even.

 

[Diddy]

No point in remaking it. They're not gonna make it better and the original isn't too old or poor quality. It's a dumb idea.

 

[Pilky01]

The social justice discussions around this will be insufferable....

"I bet the movie will be about a white guy checking his privilege and supporting Black Lives Matter"

"Why are we centering discussions about race around yet another straight white man?!"

......its become so easy to tune this **** out because its always so predictable. I almost forget what is used to be like, back in the time between like 1990 and 2014, when everything wasn't about white supremacy, black excellence, ***** and TERFs.



edit: so I guess that C work that rhymes with puck is filtered here....haha

 

[Skip Bayless]

Why...

 

[kingsholygrail]

I still don't know why I liked the original, but I do.

[Roo Returns]

The title of the movie is being changed to "Vertically Challenged Man Experiencing A Lack Of Sunshine" in an effort not to rub anyone the wrong way. Seriously, South Park was right, the generation who goes to the movies now is all about member berries. They stop spending money on remakes and this will stop.

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

I still don't know why I liked the original, but I do.

Harrelson and Snipes worked well together and generally its a likeable movie in all aspects
