Title: 12 Monkeys
Post by: Tpek on July 18, 2014, 01:45:13 AM
Remember that old classic with Bruce Willis and Brad Pitt?
One of those awesome time-travelling / predestination-paradox sci-fi flicks...

Well...

Seems Remaking/Rebooting is the new cocaine in Hollywood :P

So they will replace Director Terry Gilliam's brilliant quirky storytelling craft with what? Big 'splody things?

And more CGI.
Explosions and CGI are all the rage now.
Used to be explosions and car chases, but I guess the ever-increasing price of fuel made people prefer to chase each other on dinosaurs, spaceships
and in flight-capable power armor suits.

Not only a TV show, but a SyFy TV show. So instead of 12 Monkeys, it will now be 12 Cyborg Sharks.

Brad Pitt played a lunatic in it, didn't he? If so I love that movie.

^Yep.
Though he played a lunatic in a couple of films (Fight Club as well for an example)
