He’s not even that!
Don’t mess with the classics man…………
The article says that it is not a remake, but an original movie with the same character.
I find I OD on coolness with Steve McQueen movies. Too much.
No chance, Bradley Cooper isn’t even 1/1,024 of the cool of Steve McQueen. A hard pass on this one.
I’m certain the car-chase scene downtown will be so overdone and over-the-top to suit this generation’s “Marvel franchise” audiences, it will be laughable.
Film firearms trivia. In a scene where the bad guy is killing folks with a Winchester 1897 shotgun, the receiver is US miitary marked.
(Mrs. Slim hates me stopping movies to check out the guns involved.)
Bradley Cooper the new STEVE MCQUEEN????? Nahhhh.
McQueen is easier to recast than Jacqueline Bisset! The thought of her got me through a lot of cold nights in Korea.
Rumors are he’s gay.
Jacqueline Bisset...and THAT wet t-shirt in “The Deep”
I wonder if they’ll have that magic green VW Beetle in the chase that Bullitt’s Mustang kept passing.
What, no LBGQRSTUV+ person in Steve McQueen’s role? Or a kale powered steel tread WWII tank?
It’ll be a Prius this time, LOL
It’ll be mostly CGI.
Brad Pitt or Tom Cruise. Though I think I’ve only seen Pitt drive a tank.
I knew Steve McQueen, and Bradley Cooper is no Steve McQueen. 🤡
There is cool, and then there is Steve McQueen cool. Steve McQueen cool is its own universe, its own dimension.
We often watch The Thomas Crown Affair to get a healthy dose of McQueen.
Still a dumb idea...people who will remember the film will hate it and people who never saw the film will say, Frank who. Why not just make an original cop film? Spielberg remakes West Side Story, that nobody but he wanted remade, then he does a pseudo bio of himself, and now this...
