The word Remake never used to make me tense up and frown and shout about. I don’t recall exactly when it started to happen, but in the last few years it’s been happening a lot more. And it just happened again when I read this.
For me, The Wicker Man—featuring Nicholas Cage, carved out of wood, in an acting-style cringe-worthy kind of a way, that is—tops the list as far as films which should have been left well and Read more…
Why it is that some people are bullies? Maybe they were picked-on themselves or is it simply because they are not very nice people?
