The Fly (2008)

Why does this have to happen?

Cronenburg's remake was in my opinion, AWESOMELY PERFECT. Goldblum portrayed Brundle great and Geena Davis did an excellent job.

Why do they fell the need to make a remake of a remake when Cronenburg's kicked so much ass. Are they going to call it a re-remake?

edit: It says production has been pushed back to 2008, so who knows what's going to happen now but I wouldn't doubt it if it still goes on as planned.

Just wondering what everyone's take on this was?

Arg, no way in hell any other actor is going to do better than how Goldblum did.

This is one fly that wants swatting NOW.
Will this never end?

*smacks head* What is the obsession with horror remakes? Isn't the original good enough to be left alone...EVER?

its almost like there is a new remake announced daily

It won't happen. The only person involved left..so..yeah.

Yes the status is unknown since Todd Lincoln left but they are still trying to get it to work if reports are saying that production has been pushed back to 2008. So to me that is saying "Yeah Lincoln left but we are still going to try everything we can to get this made."

But I still hope this never happens and they should shelve it right now and never let it see the light of day.

My god wat is happening to the movie world have they writers block can the not thinkof anything original

yeah i wish theyd BUZZ OFF!!!

The remakes are getting out of hand...They really need to leave the Fly alone

yeah they are like flies round sh!t looking for the next horror flick to remake

Exactly.

A motivated actor is capable of doing incredible things. They also need to be fans. I want all my favorite movies remade...reason 1: special effects, reason 2: modern day, reason 3: a better story or script.

Applause for Big Sexy.

He's on fire that's why.

Hollywood is getting so desperate for the big bucks they even resort to remaking remakes?

I really don't think this is going to happen. I guess the filmmaker saw sense.

It all begins with "ooh ahh" but later there's running and screaming...

..........Cheeseburger

Well I absolutely hope this falls through...Lord knows we don't need another remake of an already great film...which was also a remake but it's ok cause it was done quite well.

Do it again!

blasphemy

Why? The sex was amazing!

Was it now?Where was I?

I believe you saw the movie just like me. And most of us want a remake done...so let's do it again...it means requested by the makers back in the 80s for that remake then this other remake requested by us. Don't you think it's cool?

I don't actually...I'm happy with the Fly of the 80's

the 80's?

yeah the eighties

More BLASPHEMY...They do not need to be remade...nor do many people want them to be.

He's just trying to get a rise out of you.

I'm sure Michael Bay, when he's done ruining The Birds for a new generation, will be happy to fondle this remake with his grubby paws.

worst movie news i have hear in a while. Thats really bad! I loved the original and Cronenburg's update was brilliant and revived the story for newer audiences but stop!!!!!! thats enough! and i really hope it isn't goin to be 'another' sequel!!!
