Girls are more vicious than boys. It would probably turn out quite grizzly if it ever happened in real life.

Here’s some more to avoid:

“Lord of the Flies is the latest addition to Hollywood’s gender-bending remake streak. Other installments include Splash starring Channing Tatum, Dirty Rotten Scoundrels at MGM and an role-swapping Overboard reboot, as well as the upcoming Ocean’s 8 movie.”

Boys feel an inherit need to belong to a group. This is a nature thing. Girls do not.

Where did you get that idea? Girls form some of the most obnoxious cliques imaginable.

Sooner or later they might make a good movie version of the book. Too bad it should have been sooner.

Completely devoid of any new ideas aren't you Hollywood. That's why we end up with 2 or 3 ‘The hangover’ sequels which was a really dumb movie but hell, it put butts in the seats and that's all they care about.

Well, that and pushing leftist agendas all day long.

The original one was PERFECT, the remake not good, and this planned for re, remake will utterly and completely RUIN the book and be a stinker of a movie!

If they had made it into a Comic Book series with a superhero Lord of Flies, it might have had a chance with the low IQ comic book crowd.

Roman Polanski has already put in an advance order for his Blue Ray copy.

It was a lousy book, that made a lousy movie and now let’s remake it as another lousy movie.

It's a literary masterpiece.

The movie was lousy, as you say. And I'm sure the remake will be even worse.
