Saw [rec] and that movie was completely awesome. When I heard about the remake that they're doing, I thought to myself "wow, why the hell would they do this" but then I realized that Hollywood has completely ran out of idea's so now they're just copying from foreign films.. This sucks :(

Yeah the only bonus I suppose is the fact it will be in English but I loved the Spanish language in [rec]

I suppose so, But I thought that it was better in Spanish. :). That and the acting in it was superb to be quite honest. What saddens me the most is that this movie recently came out, yet Hollywood is already cashing in on it and made a trailer for it. What they should of called this movie was [copy&paste] :p

Did anyone notice that the girl playing the reporter plays Debra, Dexter's sister, in Dexter?

While on the skinny side, she's very pretty.

This film looks retarded though. Just my opinion, but hasn't the zombie genre been played out in the last, oh I don't know, 30 years?

Jay Hernandez from Hostel also plays in this film.

'Tis true that zombies can only eat brains and stagger, which is why the zombie is dead (pun intended :p ).

I loved 28 Days Later because the zombies were more realistic. They weren't technically "dead", they were still alive, just infected with rage. And they didn't go after just humans either, they took their rage out on everything in their way. Which is different because most zombies ignore buildings and other animals and focus only on humans. But if they were dead, how would they know the difference between a dog and a human? There's no thought process, yet they seem to know exactly what they want.

They've been doing that for a while now. One of the ridiculous examples too:

TAXI (France) - kick ass movie

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0152930/

TAXI (US) - a total disaster

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0316732/

By the way, [REC] is an absolute Jewl. It will scare your pants off. US version looks horrible and is a recommended pass. Just get the spanish version with subs. It's more authentic too as you really feel you are watching a documentary (real thing).

Yeah thats what made that film awesome plus I thought Land of the Dead was good because it changed the way we thought about Zombies because they started to think just like if they were alive.

The only reason they are redoing this is because most Americans wont see something that is not in English, i guess they feel uncomfortable reading subs or maybe they think only US can make good movies... This is from personal experience, where i have been over my uncles on the US, and my cousins and their friends just refuse to watch anything in other languages.. :(

** I said most Americans, not ALL Americans....

Yeah I think this is the point I love the first purely because of its lowish budget and the fact it is foreign.

Well I won't be seeing this movie because it is shot with the stupid "handheld camera view" much like Cloverfield and Blair Witch (which were also terrible IMO).

But, I have to acknowledge that I'm not one of those from the US who refuses to see sub-titled movies. I've seen several of those movies in theaters and out and enjoyed them as much or more than "normal" movies. For instance, I saw Jet Li's 'Fearless' in theaters 3 times and own the DVD now. :) I love that movie.

I totally agree and I live in the US! Most foreign films don't compare to the overrated, regurgitated crap they put on the screen nowadays. Honestly the older movies and foreign films are far more creative and inventive. Rarely is there a worthy movie that comes out that is actually worth buying/seeing. Some people are just lazy and don't want to read subtitles, society... :no: (This offends anyone, forgive me but Neowin forums are mostly opinions anyways)

    • Free Software Foundation Europe pushes EU to force Google to allow AI uninstalls on Android

      By zikalify · Posted

      Free Software Foundation Europe pushes EU to force Google to allow AI uninstalls on Android by Paul Hill Credit: Pexels Users should be able to fully uninstall AI-based features from Android devices and be able to access interoperability functions, free from Google’s verification requirements, the European Commission has heard as part of an Android interoperability consultation under the Digital Markets Act. These measures were proposed by the Free Software Foundation Europe (FSFE) last week when it submitted its documentation. The FSFE noted that Google had started silently installing AI models without telling users. It noted that the EU’s DMA requires companies like Google to allow users to uninstall pre-loaded software from their devices, but in the case of the AI models Google is installing, they reinstall if you delete them, contravening the DMA. To get Google back under control, the FSFE has told the European Commission that there needs to be improvements within the Android Open Source Project (AOSP). First, it said that users should be able to fully remove pre-loaded AI components from their devices, with companies being prohibited from silently reinstalling or reactivating them. Second, access to Android interoperability features should not be contingent on registration, authorization, or contractual relationships with Google. This pertains to Google’s attempt to force developers to register with Google, even to publish apps to alternative app stores like F-Droid. Discussing its submission, Lucas Lasota, FSFE Legal Programme Manager, said: Google is planning to roll out its Android Developer Certification in September 2026. This will force every Android app developer to register with Google before their software can be installed on certified Android devices, but it should affect those who have removed Google Apps from their device. The program is controversial because it entails the signing of contracts and payment of account fees to Google, as well as the handing over of the identities of developers. It said: The FSFE said that if the Commission’s draft measures remain unchanged, then Google will be allowed to make developers verify their identity. The FSFE believes that asking developers to register is contrary to the text and spirit of the law. In summary, the FSFE has told the Commission that no developer should need a Google account, a Play Store presence, or any agreement with Google to access Android’s interoperability features.
