Re release of Red Dawn
 
I don't I missed it in the thread...but "Red Dawn" has been slowed for release as they are editing out the Chinese for fear of hurting their feelings and the fact that they own alot of our stuff.....Go figure, CSM-H

QP Kgoerz--

FWIW, the original version of this absolutely horrible movie caused significant controversy in the TMZ.
  • First, it opened during the 1984 summer Olympics. Angelenos were concerned that the film detracted from the triumph of those games.
  • Second, the movie was absolutely horrible. (The echoing silence in the half empty Cinerama Dome was broken only by derisive comments and laughter of angry--but not bitter--members of the audience.)

How could ANY movie with Ben Johnson be "horrible"??? Bad, maybe. But, horrible??? No way!:)

Sometimes
 
Sometimes it's better to let the original movie be the "last word".

The North Koreans????? In Michigan??????? Oh, come on now......

How did they get their Army through China and Russia?

It appears Palin has a better grasp of geography than Hollywood.

Are camels indigenous to the most populous Muslim nations <<LINK1>>, <<LINK2>>? Or are you just going with stereotypes for a quick laugh?

Now that would have given the producers an opportunity to placate the Chinese in an entirely different manner.

I love that movie. Probably more because it was date night with my dad and it was the day I got my cast off my arm. I still remember it now, Fargo's for dinner and chapel hills mall for the movie because the Citadel was sold out.

Great memory.

Charlie Sheen was still cute back then.

I am just archiving this remark for future historical research. Or a retirement roast. Or a Tweet.

Was 12 years old and living in western Colorado when the original was new.
Created lots of ideas for entertainment for my peer group.

Still head up into the Colorado mountains every summer, with the same friends, and continue that line of entertainment.
We just have better toys and more ammo now. :D

My son was 5 or 6 when we saw this together. A few months later I was getting ready to leave on a hunting trip and he asked, "Are you going to drink the blood?" We both still laugh about it...
