According to The Variety, Will Smith and Steven Spielberg are both in talks to remake the Korean hit movie Old Boy and bring it to the U.S. Similar to The Departed, which had a strong following in China and Hong Kong, Old Boy is considered a Korean classic made famous for its intense graphic visuals and twisted plot lines.
Movie is about a man who is kidnapped and held in a shabby cell for 15 years without explanation. Suddenly, he’s released and given money, a cell phone and clothes and is set on a path to discover who destroyed his life so he can take revenge. And take revenge he does. If all goes according to plan Will Smith would play the kidnapped man and Spielberg would produce.

If Smith gets the role he will have a lot to live up to. Check out this fight scene from the original movie where he fights and takes out 20+ guys on his own.

What's next? Ichi the Killer (if it hasn't already)? Battle Royale?

But I'm kinda curious too...

There was supposed to be a Battle Royale remake, but due to the VTech Massacre last year, things aren't looking all that hot. Remake rights haven't even been purchased yet.

And I don't want to see a fuckin' Oldboy remake.

Though probably off-topic and technically not a movie from another country...

But they're re-making The Karate Kid

And it's being produced by Will Smith and starring his 10-year old son.

Screw Will Smith. I want my Karate Kid 5 that retcons Karate Kid 4 and has Ralph Macchio training some random Asian kid. THAT'S THE WAY IT SHOULD BE!


I'm usually the last person to play the childhood raping card, but DAMN.

what. the. fuck. Seriously? Will Smith?! Karate Kid doesn't need a remake! (and it didn't need the 3 sequels it got either)

and screw steven speilberg, he is the most overrated director of all time. :zenitora:

Karate Kids 1 and 2 were good, the 3rd one was bad but still enjoyable for the cheese(and the fact that Ralph Macchio was a year older than the guy who played Silver), but Next Karate Kid was just garbage.

Why is Will Smith making a remake...

Because he's run out of ideas for new movie projects (like the rest of Hollywood it seems).

And for the money, naturally.

Hollywood seems to be in a "great depression" or something like that ... Or how should I call times where Hollywood makes a Karate Kid remake and a Monopoly movie?!

The only reason Hollywood remakes stuff is because nowadays you guys never watch anything that isn't something you have heard about before, so when something original and good DOES come along- all you guys ignore it. If you want them to make original things, you must first attend original movies.
