Seriously?
Jul. 31st, 2009 10:09 amI cannot believe this. Death at a Funeral. An American remake of the British movie by the same title that was only made two years ago. It's an utterly hilarious movie, I well reccommend it to anyone, but.... I just can't believe they're doing a remake of it, and so soon, either. Normally America remakes foreign films that aren't in English already, like Shall we Dance, which works brilliantly as a Japanese movie, but I'm not so sure about the English version... but what really makes me happy is that when I make this complaint to Alan, he knows what I mean because he's actually seen the Japanese version. I gotta thank my good friend Rhi for introducing me to that one...
But, anyway, my complaint is that the English Death at a Funeral was funny and fantastic, and it's way too soon to go and make an American version in the hopes that that appeals to a larger audience.
I've been having a bit of fun on imdb today, anyway. Cracked up because The Terminal was on tv here recently, and I caught the tail end of it with Alan and Joe... well, there's this chick in it that I thought I recognised, and asked, "Isn't that Uhura from the latest Star Trek movie?" And it is and that is hilarious because in The Terminal she plays an immigration officer who also is a Trekkie. She's also Anamaria from the first Pirates movie, which I didn't know.
Fin.
