People: read what has been posted. They are not recreating Tony Montana.
Sure sounds like it. That's essentially the entirety of the 1983 movie.

Hollywood movie industry for the last 20 years and getting worse.
Go to the movies and you have a choice between a remake that you know is gonna suck or a computer animated "cartoon" with no plot........that you know is gonna suck.
independent films are the only good ones being made, with a few exceptions per year.

I can't say that I am looking forward to this, it could turn out really good but I have my doubts.
This seems to be the case these day doesn't it?
While there are a few original scripts and stories that I've liked over the few years(District 9 and Inception),for the most part,they all suck.And I'm so fucking sick of all of the animated movies! Does Hollywood think that every adult either has kids or are man-children?

Torn & Frayed.
That's also the entirety of the 1932 original.
Which means if they did it once;they can do it again.
If the story is taken back to its' basic elements;and certain other things changed in terms of setting, it has potential.
Do you think a bazooka and the line "say hello to my little friend" would be out of place?

I HATE remakes. Writers to need work their asses off and come up with new material.

Yep, it seems the trend of laziness started in the late 80's/early 90's with them making TV shows that we grew up with into movies.
I think a lot of people watched those out of mainly curiosity, to see how it would look as a movie with different actors.
Then along with those came the remakes.
Most people do realize that they almost always suck but there are enough humans available to fill the theaters, plus with DVD releases they almost can't lose money.........so why stop? Why be creative when the money is there no matter what.
Also USA ain't the only country on the planet. Lotta money to be made internationally.
And most people in other countries have no idea that a remake is even a remake.
But there are still good flicks being made, just like with music.......you just gotta search a bit harder these days.
If they do remake it, maybe they'll make it so I'll actually be able to sit through it.Are we officially allowed to revolt if they start to remake The Godfather? I can see them going there someday.

Yeah, it started off good but got off track around 3/4 of the way in, then it got kinda stupid.
Seemed like they rushed it, then went to the big Rambo style finish.
And why did he think everyone was Jewish?
Jew know what I mean?
This makes me facepalm. That is all.
Are you talking about Scarface? I love Scarface. I'm talking about The Godfather.
