Still Happening

Posted on 10:14 AM by Unknown
Entertainment Tonight running a trailer-preview for the "Red Dawn" remake is a geuine two-fer: I didn't think either of those things were still happening.

Chris Hemsworth and Josh Hutcherson are not, incidentally, aging backwards - this thing was shot about three years ago and has been shelved largely owing to the MGM crack-up and (reportedly) really, really sucking; then got delayed again to perform a villain-ectomy: Originally the film was about an armed Chinese (replacing the Soviet Union from the original) invasion of the United States; but someone realized that would probably make increasingly vital Chinese distribution/business-relations difficult and decided to digitally re-edit the invaders into North Korea.



The film is now set for a November 21st release date, which will make it only the second stupidest fantasy about expelling imaginary communists from the U.S. that plays out that month.
