One of the problems with rebooting anything for today's crop of ill-informed, 12-to-14-year old, bread & butter 5 to 6 times going movie attendees is that they have such a short attention span... you need to have many short bursts of over the top action or comic stick to keep them from simply eating the popcorn and forgetting they are in a movie theater.

Maybe Youtube should open theaters that just play random videos from their site 24-7 and see how many youngsters notice.

There are some people doing interesting things out there. I am really interested in seeing the Oldboy remake out this fall. I would have never imagined Spike Lee of all directors helming this project but I think Gary Oldman is a great actor so we’ll see. I also really liked Neill Blomkamp’s District 9 so I am looking forward to ELysium as well. There is a lot of chaff these days but some people are doing really neat projects as well.

Hollywood (and Broadway) have given up writing anything new. 400+ comic books for Superman and Spiderman and they keep remaking the movies that they’ve already made about these characters.
