Pandemoniac
Hollywood's insanity got shifted in even higher gear if this is true!
Just came across an article about a possible oncoming remake of the original Predator movie.
According to a wrestling newsletter; John Cena is up for the lead role in the remake, while word goes around that director John McTiernan has been approached by FOX to direct it... All a bit vague, but even these rumours brought tears to my eyes.
The first Predator movie was a pure classic, with all the right elements and chemistry. The remake will be without Arnold, Bill Duke, Jesse Ventura and not the least Kevin Peter Hall as the Pred.
Instead we get some void-skull who dares to think he can fill Schwarzenegger's shoes, probably one of those wimps who 'acted' as a Pred in AvP, and a bunch of side characters of which I can't even start to imagine how shallow and redundant they will be.
Further more, it seems John McTiernan has been offered the job to avoid him making a Thomas Crown Affair sequel, as FOX is probably sure of the fact that such a movie will be a leech to the wallet (and they should), so they toss him something like this. Yeah, clever thinking... just fire the sucka!
I could rampage in rage for hours on this, but for now I think my point is clear, Thy shall not remake Predator, or burn in hell forever!
