Guess the movie

[Line]

German director. He's remaking his own film in English and will be released later in the Spring.

 

[Pain]

No idea.

If you feel like cheating...

I'm gonna guess at Werner Herzog without Googling but don't know what film if it is him.

 

[Pain]

Funny Games ?

Funny Games ?

Correct. How badass is this going to be?

 

[Pain]

Made it kinda easy with using google.

Guess the movie.

 

[Rocky]

^I remember seeing the trailer for that months ago and thinking it looked good. Didn't realise (or forgot) it was a remake.

Million Dollar Baby?

Before the Devil Knows You're Dead?

Would you say the remake looks better than the original? I might check out the 1997 original.

Before the Devil Knows You're Dead?

Correct. Was kinda easy since it just came out.

I'd see the original first only because the remake is supposed to be shot-for-shot. For me it will just be a chance to try to take in a bit more of its themes instead of seeing an entirely new film. Then again, if you hate reading subtitles (or listening to German) you could just go with the remake. I really don't know if American audiences are ready for that type of film though, it's not really what you'd expect it to be (the trailer has a Clockwork Orange characteristic to it which isn't really there in the film).

I don't mind subs. Some of my favorite movies/tv shows are in subtitles.

 

[Rocky]

Once you start watching a subtitled film having not done so before you forget about them after a few minutes and it really doesn't detract from the film like I think some people think.

I was just taking a pot-shot at the German language.
