Man, avoiding spoilers is gonna be tough.
Wish they would redo some of the old Charlie Chans, but I guess to much racial undertones that would piss people off.
Funny you bring up Charlie Chan. About a year ago I found some Charlie Chan DVDs are the library and checked a few out. Charlie Chan in Egypt and Charlie Chan at the Opera are the two I remember.
I agree that some Charlie Chan remakes would be cool, but like you say it probably won't happen though. It's really kind of dumb, ultimately, because while there were some racial stereotypes Chan always came off as intelligent, kind-hearted and the hero of every story.
One issue that's easy to fix is to use a real Asian actor. The other issue is The Mantan Moreland Birmingham Brown character. He was awesome and funny but it would never fly today because he was a buffoonish black stereotype with the wide eyes "NO SIR, I ain't go in' in there!". Check at Charlie Chan in London, Charlie Chan at The Circus, Curse of The Jade Mask.
Mysteries!Big fan of thrillers such as this. Hope its good.
The use of the Imagined Dragons song in the trailer has really grown on me.
Looking forward to this one. Awesome cast. I've seen the 1974 movie so I know the ending, but still I'm looking forward to see how this film is executed. Branagh is underrated.
Thanks, saw it a few hours ago on some other site, looks better for me or at least starting to get used with this new version of him.
This was originally going to be a Fincher, right?
I believe you're thinking of the upcoming remake of Strangers on a Train.
Ah yes, the long-awaited sequel, starring Samuel L. Jackson.
"Enough is ENOUGH!!! I've had it with these motherfucking strangers, on this motherfucking train!!!"
LOL. I actually got curious and went looking for some info on it. The most recent thing I found was an article from 2015 saying that it's been delayed, so who knows if it will ever happen.
Speaking of awesome train movies, did you see Train to Busan? That was a great surprise last year.
