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.

You really thought Land of the Dead was good?

"they're just trying to find a place to live" :x

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)

    • Microsoft confirms Windows 11 26H2 to finally get one of the most requested features

      Web search has been one of those crap ware that I try to get rid of asap. It's annoying and slow. It was a cheap way for Microsoft to drive traffic to Bing.
    • Creative Sound Blaster AE-X PCIe review: your headphones will love it

      By WaltC · Posted

      All I can say is that think the USB G8 is better in many ways, and costs the same or slightly less. I wouldn't part with mine. It's even a big improvement over the G6 USB. (You can also use studio phones (up to 600 OHMs I think) with the G8, but I have to say that even relatively cheap 30-50 OHM phones sound absolutely great--far better than through most internal motherboard sound!) Considering the difference in these products I am surprised that Creative is still making the PCIe internal card versions. https://www.headphoneer.com/cr...ve-sound-blaster-g8-review/
    • I have really been nerding out on my desktop icons and feel compelled to share...

      By Nick H. · Posted

      I missed this when you first posted it, but those are awesome icons! I would normally prefer things to be uniform, but each of those icons seems to fit perfectly for the game! If I may ask though, what was your thought process on which icons are circular - MK makes sense - and which ones should be rectangular or square?
    • Microsoft Paint used to be my favorite Windows app as a kid, and it's still pretty good

      By WaltC · Posted

      What I like about Paint is using it almost exclusively for cropping and resizing images I get elsewhere--it's quick, easy and cheap... I keep it glued to my taskbar, in fact. Also, the clipping tool comes in handy, as well (hit print scrn on the keyboard and it activates immediately.)

      I still remember it fondly today. It was so cool to work in 64-color Half Bright mode and 4.096-color HAM mode (interlaced) when x86 was still in 4-color CGA or 16-color EGA low res. C= never realized what it had until it was far too late--the failure of C= was the failure of its top management. The C= Amiga was 20 years ahead of its time, I always thought. It didn't hurt that in only 512k of chip memory, the Amiga could preemptively multitask when Apple was still doing gray scale graphics on tiny screens and along with everyone else was doing cooperative multitasking (running more than one app at a time in resident memory, but you could only run one of them at a time--had to manually switch between them.) I had a ball with AREXX scripting running between programs that had AREXX ports so that when you sent other applications data and instructions, those running applications could process the same in real time to output!
