Pretty much.I saw it in the theater.
Mad Max: Fury Road is crap
Will they? I wouldn't bother, just like I didn't for Evil Dead or Fright Night. If it was a good movie first time round, why would I bother with a remake? The only example I can think of taking a good original and doing a good remake was True Grit. (Infernal Affairs / The Departed is probably a legitimate one as well, but I honestly didn't really get into either of them.) There's far more chance they're going to do an Oldboy or Wicker Man.
None of those are good examples in the slightest as only Evil Dead has the same sort of cachet and is still a niche movie. Point Break is an awesome bad movie. It's well known by a huge swath of people. It has a long running live show. People will be curious enough to go see it. Look at The Karate Kid. I remember tons of people saying "How can they remake the Karate Kid!?!" then going to see it for the very reason Hollywood remade it. It sucked. It also made a ton of money. Hell, people saw Annie because it was Annie and they grew up with it, and that has MASSIVE changes. People hated the idea of it hugely, but enough people still went that it made money. People went and saw Footloose with zero stars because they grew up with it. Same deal, criticized ahead of time, big return on the budget. Those are better comparisons. Movies with a big audience and nostalgia that drew people in despite their reservations.
I think I am going to do the same with Point Break, I don't think there's a chance in hell this movie will be good.
You simply cannot replace the amazingly perfect cheese factor of Swayze, Reeves, and Tank Girl.
Don't you dare leave Gary Busey or Anthony Kiedis out of that equation.
