At the Movies!

SO I recently found out that The Raid will be getting a Hollywood remake.

Ok. I honestly don't know what to think about this.

Basically, this remake won't feature the highly coreographed action made the original so likeable. It also won't feature pencak silat and there's the possibility of Iko Uwais either getting a minor role or not being featured at all . There's also this:

will build a deeper story with regards to the two brothers and their father, to highlight “The Walking Wounded.”

I... isn't that excatly what the sequel did?

I understand that they want to introduce more people to The Raid, given that it is a fairly obscurse film among the mainstream, but... wouldn't it be much easier to spread the word through social media? Both the director and the producer have twitter accounts after all.

But hey, if this movie somehow ends up being a success then maybe we are gonna get a 'The Raid 3'. Who knows?.

Also, I can't believe it took me this long to discover this (almost five months since I've watched the movies, to be exact).
