Bullitt To The Head

discussioncomments published: 2004-06-11 00:00:00 Author: Stuart Wood
Warner Brothers, is well documented as being perhaps my least liked studio, what with the Superman shambles to name but one reason. Now they've just provided me with more ammunition - another "reimagining" of a classic movie

Who gets the short end of the stick now? None other than Steve McQueen himself in one of his most famous roles - Frank Bullitt. Yes, the great imagination vacuum of a studio has hired Wolfgang Peterson (Troy) to bring a new incarnation of Bullitt to the screen. Petersen almost sounded convincing when he said; "Bullitt" is not about remaking a film or repeating a plot, it is about reviving a great character.".

Nice try Wolfie, but let's not lie to ourselves, a remake is a remake and is just an excuse to coast and sell yourself off a brand-name rather than put hard work into coming up with a successful original idea. Make your own goddamn icons for the 21st century, stop recycling the previous generation's.

Who needs House Of Rage in the forums anyway...
