DL: WB wants [RZEME] to direct a straight remake of 1939's Wizard of Oz. Nov 16, 16:21
No. Original. Ideas. Left. {nm} Nov 16, 16:28
1939 Wizard of Oz wasnt an original idea. Its based on a book published 39 years earlier. {nm} Nov 16, 17:06
But this is more like GVSAN's Psycho, than the typical remake. {nm} Nov 16, 17:14
Not my point. Remaking classics is lame, no matter what they were based on... Nov 16, 17:16

with you on all three points. and I thought I was the only one who liked the Manchurian Candidate redux {nm} Nov 16, 17:58
One of my all-time faves. And Schrader's Cat People is a guilty pleasure. {nm} Nov 16, 18:03
Now that is a great quote. (So is the Cage one, btw). Nov 17, 00:30
Honestly, I first saw it in this Jarmusch quote (which is equally as good) Nov 17, 10:11
and your blog entry was a great read {nm} Nov 17, 10:11
I feared this might happen someday. I echo the sentiments of the comment section....leave Oz alone. {nm} Nov 16, 17:29
