Post Just seen the trailer for the Omen remake....
It looks bad. Why the fuck can they use real dogs 30 years ago but today they are Cgi shit. And why does the monkey look just like king kong? Again, they used real baboons in the original. I'm so sick of cheap ass movie studios using cgi just to save money. One guy on a computer is cheaper than hiring animals and there trainers. I understand that but does that make the tickets any cheaper. We pay the same to see it and get ripped in the process. Any thoughts?

The sad thing is I dont think CGI is cheaper than the real thing....

And I totaly agree, only use it when you cant acheave the real thing.

I also dont see the need to remake EVERY great horror film. The originak usually does the best anyway.

Didnt these people ever hear the advise "just be yourself" ?????

well if you consider that the ONLY reason they remade this movie at all is because 6-6-06 happens in 2006 and not again for another 1000 years it's not as surprising that it's probably going to be a piece of shit

I'm sure that decapitation scene will be CGI as well, or probably cut out all together.

i think for it to qualify as acting, it has to be executed in a believable manner.


hehehe
