Good thing you corrected my english yet didn't answer my question. By the way, I am not from an english speaking country, just a thing for you to notice.

Yup that's true and you can look at it as superman in the 70's. You have to do the same thing when you watch dirty Harry. But for some films like top
Gun where the idiots decide to put present day instead of a date stating the year, for me that makes it more difficult to have the movie take place in the 80's.
I was watching total recall the other day and was amazed how well it has stood the test of time. With effects and the way it looks. And it does not seem too dated. So I was thinking why the he'll does it have to be remade with Collin Farrell replacing arnie ???
I think you're very confused. I quoted Queeq, responded to him. The second portion was me quoting you and responding to you. If you do not understand the basics of how a message board works, you have many avenues of help right at your finger tips. Ask a mod, ask a member, use google, and so forth. In other words, no worries, dude. Just tone down the hostility a bit.
Your answer there is at least equally confused dadude- his point is fair, you did not answer his question. Please refrain from making posts like that in future.

For one, it was not a very good movie. And another reason it that it could have more of the Philip K. Dick (who wrote the short story the movie was based on) feel instead of taking the idea and turning it into a testoronfest.
1) I wasn't being agressive, and I don't think I showed any kind of agression in my post, but just to make things clear, I am not in hostile mode
2) I was merely asking for you to show us Anakin's character development, since you said he had development, which you didn't show how. It was quite simple actually, you said "Anakin's character had development during the movies", and since I don't agree, or at least I don't think he had a significant one, I asked you to explain your idea.
So, I am just, very politely, asking you to show us why do you think that Anakin has character development during the prequels.

And it's a very good question. But dadudemon has some peculiar ideas about drama.
Frankly, I think the only character development there is, is between kiddie Anakin and adult, grumpy Anakin. Anakin has no obstacles in his life other than himself. And since no one really corrects or makes him pay for his actions, he has no reason to change. Or as dadudemon states: he is falling all the time, ever since he stood for the Council for the first time. He actually says there is no development in Anakin's character: he just does one thing all the time, falling. And in the end, surprise surprise, he falls the last bit.
How do you figure it's a load of shit? It's true they are making alot of remakes.
True grit
Fantastic 4
Footloose
Conan
Arthur
Red dawn
Police academy
Spiderman
Tmnt
Tomb raider
The warriors
Day the earth stood still
Where are the original ideas we had back in the day like alien, predator, star wars, Indiana jones, etc ?
Anything done by Darren Aronofsky for original ideas
i don't see what the big deal is with remakes these days, Not like its a new thing they've been doing it for years and as for the comic book movies, Only reason they do remakes is because obvisouly they did'nt get it right the first time.

I'm so confused. Use quote tags so I'm less confused.
Just in case, I'll explain to you what happened:
The gentleman confused my post to Queeq for a post to him. There was two portions to my post: first part, to Queeq, second part, to him. He obviously did not understand message board quoting structure and got confused (this is why I said to ask if he's confused: no shame in that). He responded with hostility and unleashed a diatribe about English not being his second language, telling me I should notice, and starting his sentence off with a smartass statement. Uncalled for, really, because he confused the clearly labeled quote tags. If it were you he responded, you would have brought a nice verbal smack down upon him (justifiably, so).
He's also asking me a question that is very silly: he wants to describe Anakin Skywalker's character development from the PT. I would think that participating in this forum, one should already know that. I think the question is, from the beginning, antagonistic.
But, to threaten a warning to me... That's confusing.
If you do not wish for me to participate, I will not. This is your house and I understand that, Ushgarak. I am not interested in posting in places that you do not want me to because of that. In other words, if you would prefer that the Star Wars section not experience posts from me, I'll leave, without a fuss or a word.
No thank you. I do not want to entertain a question like that. If you read the thread, I would have already listed some major points of character development, already. Since you are new, I will even do for you what I refuse to do for anyone: go back, read the thread, find the what I'm talking about, and quote myself. I definitely prefer not to as I hate going back over stuff that I know I've posted. Please, just go back and read the last two pages and you'll get most of your answer from me.
I don't understand why you continue on that path when I clarified:
Read here:
I was only quoting back to you the basics of narrative/story form.

Dadude, you are entirely incorrect and being so obtuse on this I can only assume bad faith. Go back and check what what written.
DA asked you a reasonable question- 'can you show us this development?'
Then, in your post after replying to queeq, you replied to HIM with the cryptic and useless "Can you show us/me that development?"
That's the bit he took offence to, as it seemed you were entirely dodging his question and merely just correcting it.
After he pointed that out, instead of explaining why you made such a weird response to him, you launched your ridiculous diatribe above and your insulting comments about him not being able to use a message board, when quite clearly it is you who has made the mistake here and not him. Just about everything you said about quoting queeq etc was irrelevant nonsense- he did not confuse anything at all and it is absurd of you to accuse him so.
This is now going on your record as a formal warning. You must improve this behaviour of yours in future- this is very poor.

I dont mind some here and there or after many years from an original or if its very soon after a first attempt like the incredible hulk. But for things like fantastic 4 I don't think that needs a remake. Spiderman yes cause I don't think they really got it right the first time.
But there seem to be an awful lot compared to previous years
