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.

Yeah have you seen [rec] I have been meaning to ask?

'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 by Sayan Sen This past week Microsoft officially confirmed Windows 11 version 26H2 with the latest build, 26300.8697, for testing in the experimental Insider channel. The company also published more details about it mainly directed towards IT admins and system admins. Essentially version 26H2 will be delivered via an enablement package (eKB) over Windows 11 25H2. If you are wondering about some of the upcoming features in the next Windows version, one of them is certainly very interesting as Microsoft has confirmed it is finally bringing one of the most overwhelmingly requested features ever. March Rogers, the Partner Director of Design at Microsoft, recently highlighted some of the Search improvements that the company is testing, and during the interaction with users on X where he posted it, Rogers also confirmed that the company is working on disabling web search results inside Search. This is something which many users find quite annoying as Windows would often serve them links to Bing which it feels could be more helpful rather than bringing up the actual object or app the user may be searching for on their PC. Finally though the company is prioritizing local file search over the web. However the feature could not be disabled for many users as not all new features are immediately rolled out to everyone. Image via phantomofearth (X) Windows enthusiast phantomofearth who likes to dig deep into new builds uncovered the IDs you will need to enable these features. Using the following feature IDs the new Search-related features landing in Windows 11 26H2 can be used. Follow the steps below to enable the new Search experience on Windows 11 build 26300.8697: Download ViveTool from GitHub and unpack the files in a convenient and easy-to-find folder. Press Win + X and select Terminal (Admin). Switch Windows Terminal to the Command Prompt profile with the Ctrl + Shift + 2 shortcut or by clicking the arrow-down button at the top of the window. Navigate to the folder containing the ViveTool files with the CD command. For example, if you have placed ViveTool in C:\Vive, type CD C:\Vive. Type vivetool /enable /id: and press Enter. Restart your computer. If you change your mind and want to restore, repeat the steps above and replace /enable with /disable in the commands on steps 5 and 6. Delightedly and perhaps also expectedly, once you disable web search and other such bloat, the Windows 11 Search is said to get snappier as remarked by another Windows enthusiast Xeno.
