Tolerated Movie Remakes

I enjoyed the remake of Alfred Hitchcock's Psycho.

Is that the one where they shot the movie exactaly like the original?

I guess that's the one. Must have been 1998 or something.

so, what was the point in doing that? It's just stupid. The orginal was such a great movie. I guess the makers (the re-makers) have absolutley no creativity at all. Lame.

See, the problem is, I've never really even "tolerated" remakes. Except..hmm..hold on, let me think for a minute..there's one I know it.

And I remember that...I remember reading about that when they made it...I don't recal seeing Anthony Perkins masturbating when he was looking at the shower chick through the hole in the wall. I have the original and it's cool. Nothing was ever EVER going to top that.

AMEN brother!

i liked the remake of Psycho. I mean, I think some people take it too seriously. To me, it was a lighthearted remake. like "we know we cant make it better, so we just made it a tribute"-kinda. imo anyway. I love Julianne moore in it. That scream when she sees the corpse-mother. omg.amazing. I love that scream. a classic horror-scream and she inhales like two or three times hahahha. <33 and i like vince vaughn aswell. =p

...is everything...okay.... Y.T.....LOL
