Carrie (2013)

Didn't we get a remake in 2002?

The Rage?

I thought that was a sequel.

The Rage is a sequel to the original Carrie movie and it came out in 1999. In 2002, people decided to do a remake. Now for some reason, we're getting another one which is stupid. It's just repeating the same story.

Because it's a tale that's universal. They can remake it all they want.

So in other words, Hollywood's just out of ideas...again.

yeah, this didn't need to be remade again. I'm not against remakes though, there are some movies that were made before their time that could use a modern update to take advantage of the technology we have today.

Carrie is one of my favorite books, and I'm not opposed to another remake provided it's good.

I was under the impression the 2002 remake was made for tv. Either a miniseries or a telemovie.

Either way I'm a fan of Chloe Moretz playing dark roles.
I think there's another feature where she's cast as a zombie...

Far from it

and also what Ninjak said also applies to other stories as well.

i might pass unless the next trailer does wonders for me

I saw the original a long time ago and didn't think it was anything special, doubt a remake will actually make me think any differently

errr, based on that teaser, her powers are significantly more advanced than in the original.

From what i've read they're doing their own thing with the story besides using a couple of the iconic moments from the first adaptation.

Was her period an iconic scene? Wonder if that'll be in there

From the trailer you can tell they've kept the prank the same where they pour blood on her, I think it was pigs blood and then of course she snapped and started destorying everything

Sounds like its iconic for you.

Dunno what you're getting at and not sure I really want to but it's one of the scenes I remember, mainly cause they mention it in the IT crowd

Kind of a cool little teaser. But I'm not pleased to see the name Julianne Moore (unless she gets murdered somehow, of course...)

I like her too.
She was awesome in Kickass and also 'Let the right one in.'

I wonder if she's gonna play the mum or the teacher?

Moore plays the bible bashing mom.

She's a good actress, I think she'll play the part well.

My only "dislike" is that religious fanatics can be difficult & irritating to watch on screen. As much as I enjoyed The Mist, I always dread the old woman & her preaching.
