Are we recycling disaster movies from the 70's? If it does well, there may be a surge.

He'll never make that jump.

Well, there's only that many plots... exhausted. CGI make it less costly that in the past. I saw "Earthquake" with speakers under the seats to shake the seats during the shake and bake.... maybe raise the temperature of the theater during towering inferno. I need to be hired by a studio!

More like the entertainment we ingested in the 70's has now passed through the collective GI track of the populace and is being shit back out as gawd awful remakes.

Don’t need to go to the cinema to see a disaster movie, we are now living in one!

It's the conservative movement. Making everything old new again. Not better, just new!

I hope not, they don't do a very good job on redo's they just throw in more CGI to hook people in.

Movies, tv shows, whatever will bring in a buck without taxing the imagination. Have you noticed CBS reincarnated SWAT? Not sure what network (CBS again?) rebooted Hawaii Five O or Maguyver, and now Magnum PI will be getting the same treatment.

Yeah first preview I saw I thought they where redoing Die Hard. It's been awhile since they've come up with anything even remotely original.
