If it's crap... We'll tell you

Right now I'm bloody well stuck for my end of term papers so my mind throws this at me: "What movie was a great redo and which just plain sucked?" I like it when my mind throws these loops at me cause it helps me to procrastinate jut that little bit longer. It also helps me finish my work, but that's neither here nor there. I'm a newbie, so I have no idea if this topic came already. I'm also horrible with the names of movies right now because of this end of term crap, but I'm sure you, the Spill community, will know what I'm talking about.

Most recent one I could remember starred Adam Sandler, pro footballer thrown into prison. The original was done by Burt Renoylds. The first had a gritty feel to it, more serious. I like the remake, firstly, Adam was in it and secondly, lets face it, it was funny. Not too gritty, but still kept a semblence to the original and fun to look at.

Have a better remake? Tell me about it.

Or if you just feel like not completing your home work just yet..... Get in and type! :)

The Longest Yard was the name of the remake. Thank you.

I'm doin' an assignment as I write this, but what that hell, let's procrastinate!lol
The most recent remake I saw was Takashi Miike's "Sukiyaki Western Django" whc=ich was a remake of the original Italian Django. I didn't watch the original, but this one was pretty good if you can handle the funny heavily accented Japanese English...

Everyone's a critic. Personally their style of comedy is so different and I like Robin to, but I don't think he could do a better remake.

Yesterday I requested Graham to stop by the butcher shop and get a pork shoulder so I can make pulled pork. Not knowing anything about meat portions, I simply parroted what the recipe calls for: 4-7lbs. That's a pretty wide margin, so I was assuming…
