That is one scenario, but it wouldn’t fall under a remake to the original. Maybe a sequel, but not a remake. I like my scenario for the remake of the original movie :)
Within that group there really were very few finger injuries... More were just people that are shooters. Now if I have taken note of this trait, you know that the bad guys have as well. I think most of us would prefer not to be shot because we gave ourselves away as being armed due to an extended trigger finger. So, I now make a mental note to curl that trigger finger along with the rest of my digits. Only when I draw my weapon from its holster will I straighten it out along side the frame of the pistol - that is until I'm on target and it's time to go to work. This straightening of the trigger finger is second only to the civilian tactical vest (I call them a "shoot me first" vest) in advertising that you are carrying a weapon. There are plenty of ways to carry concealed without having to look like "Tactical Tom". Concealment means undetected, not just the fact that the pistol is not visible.
Another "giveaway" trait is that of turning ones strong side (on which the pistol is carried) away from anyone to whom the gun toter is speaking. It gives away the fact that he is carrying... If you are carrying concealed (and want to keep it a secret) or working undercover, you can't give away to the bad guy the fact that you are carrying by favoring a side of your body.
It's funny to watch how people behave when carrying a weapon. With the best concealers, you never even know they have the pistol at all.

This looks like a stinker after they changed it from Chinese to North Koreans. I won’t be paying. The old ver. is good enough.
Interesting observation. I don’t extend my finger when standing relaxed but I will watch for it in others. I carry under-arm weak-side but have learned how to hug without them feeling it.
The old ver. is good enough.
This one looks like it might be pretty good:
likely to be a liberal version of “Red Dawn”
I wouldn’t dounbt it
Didn’t want to offend the Chinese.
wow.
...
Hey writer33, how about a parody review of a fictional remake of an old movie thats been completely stripped and redone according to political correctness?
“Tora, Tora, Tora” without anything that might upset the Japanese? for instance?
lol
North Korea at this point, can’t even feed themselves.
Where would N Korea get the fuel?
They had to close down many factories and most places outside Pyongyang doesn’t have electricity because they didn’t have the fuel to run the trains that carried coal from the now-shuttered coal mines.
GO BLUE!
I should have never asked to see the long form...
Too absurd to accept, suspension of disbelief or not.
I would have made it UN troops under the world heritage site authority, with Venezuela providing the shock troops.
There's got to be at least a smidgen of reality fercryingoutloud.
By the way, silly or not, I always enjoy watching the original.
If for no other reason, this will be the reason for becoming a total flop, before it even plays, LOL.
It prompts this whimsical question :
Who is the greatest Black actor in U.S. History?
Lucky you. I paid to see it at the theater. Couldn't stop saying to myself "there's no way" after every scene. I know Hollyweird churns out bad flicks built on unrealistic premises every day, but that movie was pathetic.
Do you remember The Sum of All Fears?
Never have seen it, but I really enjoyed the Clancy book.
Notice the third picture, that was once our press shop which was filled to capacity with massive stamping presses, racks filled with parts and hi-lo's racing around moving parts from one area to another ......Virtually everything in that facility was removed with the dies being shipped back to Ford and the presses and the rest of the equipment auctioned off. All the available scrap metal was stripped off by the rigging company that purchased the contents.
The fourth photo shows where our #1 Line was. 1 Line was where we stamped all our Ford van roofs.......
Thank you for your post.
Our film makers once travelled to Europe to film scenes of mass destruction. Now they can do it right at home.
The fall of Detroit is such a sad commentary on government policy over the last 40 years.
Even worse, no one in authority seems to have learned anything from it as they are still pursuing the policies that destroyed one of America’s greatest cities.
Remember that they also cast the Russians out, as they want to sell this movie in Russia. They learned the lesson of the Modern Warfare series (Which is not for sale in Russia).
The movie production house replaced the Chinese with North Koreans?
For marketing reasons? Are you kidding me?
Can’t Hollyweird do anything right anymore?
And anyone is supposed to believe for one second, that North Korea would invade the United States?
Waste of a movie ticket. Utter waste. BORING. Hollyweird screws up yet again.
Might as well send it straight to DVD, PC dopes.
