Last night I watched something on TV that wasn't South Park or Robot Chicken (wife was shocked).

The new Total Recall, came on AMC (along with frequent threats that Satellite TV subscribers might soon lose AMC). I love the original bur never saw the remake.

Verdict: Disappointed. Too much Kung-Fu, over-the-top effects with non-stop music.

My favorite line in the original, "That's for making me come to Mars. You know how much I hate this f#$@%&g planet!" - Sharon Stone

But they never go to Mars, and the setup wife in this one was more like a female terminator.


Also playing was Jurassic Park on another channel (didn't watch, have DVD) and it made me think what a modern remake of JP would be like. Wonderful special effects, so overused that 95% of the movie would be dinosaurs fighting to some dramatic (but forgettable) soundtrack.

And that's why I don't go to the movies.
