"You got no imagination." (The Italian Job - 2003)

In the last ten years, Hollywood has made a lot of movies based on previous material, including many, many remakes. The newest one I've heard about is "The Day The Earth Stood Still" with Keanu Reeves. Rumor has it that the remake is missing the key figure that made the punchline in the original.

Simply stunning.

We have Ted Kaczynski's notebooks, plus countless other conspiracy theorists' (Freedom Act, internets, etc.) ideas. And Hollywood can't use ANY of those ideas and have to pilfer the vaults of classic movies?

Also, the new movie "My Best Friend's Girl" is kinda an anti-Hitch character. Kinda wish I was in on that idea pitch. [rolling eyes go here]
