When the original came out I was a teenager who wore all black listened to NIN and was into comic books. In other words the perfect demographic for that movie. And I absolutely loved it. My friends and I would watch it all the time. I've continued to watch it and enjoy it throughout the years.

After seeing the first preview for the new one, I had zero interest in seeing. So much so, that I had completely forgotten about it again until reading your comment.

It sounds like I need to add this to my never watch list. Along with every single terminator movie after T2.

good call.

the original is so perfect, its timeless. it perfectly captures the source material.

this.. reboot.. is a moneygrab. a boardroom written and directed piece of waste that literally no one should ever watch. that it ever made it to actual theater screens shows what these big corporations really think of the general public.
