Red Dawn

The 2012 kids had a wicked '96 Roadmaster, but I'd follow Daulton over Thor any day.
 
The 1984 version was way better. That scene when they popped up from out of the camouflaged fox holes was awesome.
 
2012 - I will take Thor anywhere, anytime, any way I can get him.

But then I was 9 when the first one came out, don't even think I watched it all.
 
Same.

It's not just that I was a huge bias for the 80s movies, but the original was really well done. Great story, and cast.
I saw the remake on TV last night, and turned it after 20min.

I wish Hollywood would be original, and not remake movies, especially ones from the 80s. They have remade Fright Night, Footloose, Karate Kid, Conan, Arthur, Nightmare on Elm, Pet Sematary, and Ghost busters to name a few.
In all cases, the original was perfect just as it was, and the remake flopped.

I read Scarface , American Werewolf in London, and Weird Science are all being remade too.
Bah!

Um I believe Scarface was a remake. Original with James Cagney.

Its going to be tough to make a remake of Scarface remake without Pacino.
