“Obviously, they've got to remake themselves; obviously, they've got to make themselves relevant in a more significant way again. Their contribution in print is now not needed in large part.”
George R. Sansoucy
“Remaking the best picture could be seen as an obvious ploy. Then again, the first movie got so many nominations, the subject matter obviously has something going for it.”
Dave Karger
“Australia must remake its team.”
Patrick Smith
“For all intents, it's been very close to a total remake. He's got an excellent arm. It's all about throwing in the zone. Over the second half, he was much more consistent.”
Dan O'Brien
“There has never been a successful follow-up to the original 'Kong'; the 1970s remake tanked. The original film became such an unexpected success that there has never been anything substantial to add to it, and no possible way to compete with what was already achieved.”
William Luhr
“The golden rule has always been to remake films that were not a success, if you saw something in them. To remake a movie that's already a milestone offers audiences very little that they haven't already seen, the way 'Lord of the Rings' did.”
“(Producer) Michael Bay has done something that is rarely if ever done and that is remake a classic and turn the remake into a classic. We have a shot to get into the $80 millions. It cost $9.5 million to make. I imagine this will be the (year's) most profitable movie vis-a-vis what it cost to make.”
