I saw the trailer for this tonight, and I must admit it was pretty cleverly done. Anyone have any thoughts about this?

I actually got the trailer! There were some people who were a little clueless about it. I know it's a remake (hopefully better than the original)... a lot of people are predicting that it's going to be full of blood. The trailer makes me want to see it, though.

I doubt it'll be better than the original. I'm still a bit confused as to why Michael Haneke is compelled to remake his own movie for the American audiences - Haneke must know that he's going to be pushed by the studio. f**k, it's probably just for money.

The original was a fantastic, dark, disturbing, enlightened, and suspenseful film. And, despite its intensities, it somehow managed modesty. A nightmare for the bourgeoisie that'll probably fall on deaf ears here in America anyways. But, I am really interested to see what Haneke will do with his own film, so, I'll see it- I'm just very skeptical.

See the original, it's an amazing film.

There is this movie called Funny Games. Very strange but pretty cool too. What do you think? Have you seen it?

(I know it's pretty old but I never heard of the movie 'till last night.)

Aw, man. I was rooting for him in this one. And he was incredibly nice to look at. But that movie, Jumper, was just HORRIBLEEEEEEEEE. They could've done a lot more with it.

I guess you could say that. Except in Saw, it's like the guy just wants to kill them but in Funny Games, they just want to rob the house to get- hold up. Ya'll mind if I finish the sentence? (It might spoil the movie.)

^Oh, yeah. laugh.gif I forgot about that.

Ok Joseph (and anyone else who wants to read):
In Saw, it's like the guy just wants to kill them but in Funny Games, they just want to rob the house to get money in order for them to buy drugs and the only reason they kill the family is so that they won't get caught. So basically, Saw=Killing for no reason and Funny Games=Killing to rob house in order to get drugs.
