Okay I am utterly pissed off, completley!!! I don't even know where to start here, I was incredibly insulted and let down when I found out that Will fkin Smith was remaking The Karate Kid.... not only that but casting his son, (nice way to break into show business eh?).... Why would anyone want to remake cheesy classics such as that is beyond me, I can to a point understand why movies that were never given the budget or the special effects capacity years ago are remade, I mean, imagine knowing a film from the 70's could be so much better for the "fans" if the technology we had today was used... so in that asspect I can clearly understand. BUT not when it comes to remaking a film thats less than 20 years old, that has neither special affects or anything like that, what on earth could be remade in The Karate Kid,,, what could be improved (apart from the typical cheesy 80's script, which is why we love it)?? Absolutely nothing could be improved, there is just no justification as in why this movie is being remade,,,,,,
So I forgot about this and moved on with my life, looking forward to better things in my life like my Michael Jackson concert, my new friends, Jean Claude Anderson, Jack Napier and Lois Lane,,,,,,, do not let my frustration about the whole Karate Kid thing get to me......
Well I tried and life was good, I tried.......... but this morning, to my disbelief I read some devastating news... another film is about to be remade,,,,, this movie is less than 15 years old..... its a normal film, (crappy in some eyes but by the by still a normal movie)....
The Bodyguard!!!!!!!!
Where is the achievment and satisfaction to remake a movie like that I thought, then I carried on reading, and more was explained, things began to make sense,,,
The one hit wonder , ten minute star that in 5 years will be forgotton silly little girl Rhianna is to be cast as the main role..... Well of course she is, she would have been my first choice too,,, after all she has been into the acting business for never! But she says she has always wanted to do movies, for fuck sake find me someone who wouldn't like that.... she is a nobody.... and the film does'nt need remaking anyway, this is the music manager/producer/publicists way of making her now seen as a serious entertainer.... WHAT-FUCKIN-EVER!!!!
Which gets me started on why do kids these days try and break into the music industry by proving their so called talents by doing a COMPLETE replica of someone elses song???
No people dont get me wrong, I find cover versions completley entertaining and enjoy many of them, when the people doing the cover have put there own stamp on it and made it their own, ie the bands that succsefully do this are Pet Shop Boys, Marilyn Manson,,,,, thats ok!! But not when a complete and utter fkin replica is brought out of a song thats 2-10 years old.... whats the point, what are you proving, is that not just gloryfied fkin kareoke??? I could do that and I am tone deaf! I cant sing for shit, but if thats all it takes nowadays to break into that entertaining field, I am going to remake something like The Matrix (becasue that doesn't need remaking but what the hell?) and come out with a hit version of Dont'cha? By the pussycat dolls, and of course its going to be exactly the fookin same, even the video is going to be a tribute to them by replicating that too becasue thats what gets you to number one apparently!! people will love it becasue after all the original hasn't been heard in almost 4 month!! whoa, how do we manage?
fuck and I have just been told now about friday the fkin 12th,.... i mean where is the imagination,,,,,, what the fuck is going on lmao!!! Now thats just a joke, but the principles of my complaint still stand.
So if you want to be a movie writer or musician or song writer or anything like that, remember the reason you wanted it, remember who inspired you,,,, do not think,,, ooh I have a favourite fkin movie I will remake it, or do not think hey in 2006 that song was ace, I will do my own fkin copy,,,,, its lack of talent, imagination, creativity!! So fkin pack it in and be original!!
