    Read the other day that they are to remake 80s classic Scarface and now heard today that they are looking at getting Michael Fassbender in for the new Robocop reboot. I'm sure they could probably do a better job with Robocop but trying to remake Scarface. What are they thinking!

    For once I agree with you Medro... Robocop has the potential to be okay but a remake of Scarface is just wrong <ok>

    Scarface was a 1930s movie about an Italian immigrant.

    I think American Pie and Lethal Weapon are just doing sequels rather than remakes.

    If they do re-make Robo-Cop, they should rename it:

    American cinema is dying

    No movie they make is worth the admissions fee

    Remake of old or foreign films

    No good ideas of their own anymore

    Cowboys and Aliens......**** me

    Scarface was overblown ****e anyway.

    Al Cappucino plays the same character in every film he has been in. Much like Sean Connery.

    Not proper actors at all.

    No, they are just doing a reunion type movie with the original cast.

    Give it 5 -10 years and they'll have ruined all the smashing 80s movies.

    Ghostbusters is getting a reboot but there was talk of having the original cast and then having them train up younger folk so they can milk a few sequels out of it.
