    Which probably means it's going to be watered down.

    Oldboy's happening. Spike Lee is directing and it stars Johsh Brolin and Sharlto Copley.

    Well, since Oldboy seems to be the most successful flick in "The Vengeance Trilogy" by Park I've been awaiting talks about a Hollywood remake on that one.

    In which case I always think whats the point?

    The foreignness and the fact its not a standard Hollywood film is why I watch the foreign films in the first place.

    Normally I'd *****, especially since it'd be now two of Park's Vengeance trilogy getting remade but there's times when remakes are equally good and the fact that Theron, Ellison & Monahan (who managed to craft an equally compelling story for The Departed from Infernal Affairs) are involved gives me confidence that at least this stands a chance to be good compare to some remakes in works out there.
