The Reamke of this awesome martial arts/action movie THE RAID is currently on developement. Attached to direct is Patrick Hughes (The Expendables 3). 

Other names yet to be confirmed are the likes of Luke Evans, Ethan Hawke and Anthony Mackie. 

In an interview with the actor had this to say on Wegotthiscovered.com: 

"What people don’t know is that I’m a black belt in jiu jitsu, which I’ve been for 20 years, and I’ve been boxing since I’ve been 15 years old – those are things that come natural to me. Believe it or not, I just got hired to do [the remake of] The Raid… I loved [the original]… we’ve got to do this justice. It’s a fanboy favorite."

Stay tuned for more (hopefully)

I think you might mean the Raid 2 that came out not too long ago

@McGee

Dredd actually began filming before The Raid, so no.

Frank Grillo is the goods...from "The Grey" to "Cap: TWS" to the previews for "The Purge 2".....which looks like the best Punisher movie that's not the Punisher ......so if he's attached? even if it can't be as good as the original, I'm there.

I think they should remake Easy Rider. [frick] real motorcycles. Just CGI them shits.

The old man doesn't seem to like this idea.. and I'll bet thinking about aggravates his hemorrhoids, so I'm all for it.

I'm with Yoss on that one.

Just don't remake Blast From The Past. Ever. Don't touch my beloved Blast From The Past.

Hemorrhoids arent something you wanna mess with Ciph.

For sure Ciph. Blast From the Past should never be remade.

So...



Also, that girl who does cat burglar type shit for some insurance company, except instead of stealing the shit she is replacing the shit. Put her in some movies she is hot as hell.

Well, there was a scene in the movie where an old dude gets propositioned by a tranny..

That's, like.. a typical Friday night in Detroit, so yeah.. there is potential for a porno spoof there.

You know what, the more I think about the idea of a porno spoof, the more I like it.

yossarian - 6/16/2014, 12:15 PM
I'm with you Ciph. I'd watch a porno spoof of damn near anything.

Somebody.. get on that shit pronto. Alicia Silverstone annoyed my girlfriend for some reason that only she understands, but maybe she'll like it better with Sasha Grey instead.

Yes, yoss, YES!! We should start our own production company and make that shit ourselves.

Sid, you're the key grip.

Only if we can hire Gusto to choreograph the [frick]ing.
AsgardianHobo
AsgardianHobo - 6/16/2014, 12:27 PM
@Yoss

Don't let Gusto choreograph that shit at all, or it will be just Miley twerking for 40 minutes. And I'm sure he will bring his SJP mask to the set also....trust me, it's scary

The one thing that makes no sense about this remake. Is there not going after someone like Scott Adkins. Instead they want to use actors. Also the Raid is perfect the way it is no need for a remake.

hahahahahahahahahahaha

Well we have to give him a job somewhere.

No interest in this movie just like I have no interest in brick mansion
Remaking classic movies
