Yet more proof Hollywood is just plain out of ideas.

It isn't that they are out of ideas. It is that stupid concepts and remakes make a ton of money, so why should they bother hiring good writers?

Christian Bale is a bit old to be playing a Teen Wolf but this might be OK.


I'd hate to be the Director, Producer or other crew member on that production team. Bale is nuts. He was arrested for pounding on his mother and sister in London ... and he laid into the Director of Photography on the set of Terminator Salvation.

they have plenty of ideas, but why reinvent the wheel when the public just wants to relive their childhood everyday.

This is the reason collectables are so fucking expensive. You always had a mother throwing away your toys.

Actually the 1985 film was an original. The 1957 film was a horror movie while the 1985 was a teen comedy and shared no similar plot lines. The only comparison you can actually make between the two is the use of "teen" in the title.

lol @ them trying to be cool and not even knowing the basic plot of the movies

I was just commenting on teen werewolf movies. I think between the '57 flick, Teen Wolf, Teen Wolf Too, and the Twilight non-sense we've had enough of teenage werewolf movies.

I refuse to go see another remake. Especially these remakes of GOOD movies! Well, Teen Wolf wasn't a "good" movie, but Alice in Wonderland and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory are two that come quickly to mind.

Uh, no he just yelled at his Mom and Sister after they asked for money and I believe criticized his wife (but yeah, they reported him to police for assault where it was later established he just yelled at them), and well yeah, his fit on the set of Terminator was pretty crazy prima donna crap.

Of course, I don't know why you people are even mentioning Bale since he doesn't have anything to do with any movie mentioned in this thread.
