Lots of decent movies do not need to be remade.
Like "The Taking of Pelham 1-2-3." It's criminal!
I showed the original (Matthau, Stiller, Shaw, etc.) to Mrs. D. on DVD last year. First time she had seen it. It really holds up - what a great film. There's not a bad performance or a wasted scene in the film, and casting Matthau was genius.

The on-line poll from the above link:
Do you think Rush Limbaugh crossed the line when he hoped for riots during Denver's DNC convention?

Yes. 5881 29%
No. 14360

oh, what the fuck, since there's the 'let the people vote' folks here I'll just post the whole post:
"We already had top Clinton supporter Harold Ickes, who voted to sanction Michigan at the DNC, then now complains about the sanctions he himself approved.
Now we have Terry McAuliffe himself, as DNC chairman, enforcing the very rules he now thinks should be broken.
Mark Nickolas digs out the relevant passages from Terry McAuliffe's own book:
"I'm going outside the primary window," [Michigan Sen. Carl Levin] told me definitively.
"If I allow you to do that, the whole system collapses," I said. "We will have chaos. I let you make your case to the DNC, and we voted unanimously and you lost."
He kept insisting that they were going to move up Michigan on their own, even though if they did that, they would lose half their delegates. By that point Carl and I were leaning toward each other over a table in the middle of the room, shouting and dropping the occasional expletive.
"You won't deny us seats at the convention," he said.
"Carl, take it to the bank," I said. "They will not get a credential. The closest they'll get to Boston will be watching it on television. I will not let you break this entire nominating process for one state. The rules are the rules. If you want to call my bluff, Carl, you go ahead and do it."
We glared at each other some more, but there was nothing much left to say. I was holding all the cards and Levin knew it.

Y'know, it's just possible that there will be paid provocateurs at the Democratic convention, and elsewhere. Things such as this have happened before.

Yes Prof. And not very long ago. There have been many reports of this even back to the Seattle protests.

He also told reporters he was not sure if he would rebuild the lower 9th ward as president.
"That is why we need to go back is to have a conversation about what to do -rebuild it, tear it down, you know, whatever it is,” Mr. McCain said.

You can count on it. They're not gonna be filming in the actual subways.
Christ on a crutch, what the fuck is the point of remaking that movie? Why don't they do what the original filmmakers did - take a mid-level "thriller" most people had never heard of and make a cracking good movie out of it? It's not like there's a shortage of crime procedural fiction on the market...

Yes, Prof. There's a great documentary that appears periodically on the Documentary Channel that shows how much the NYPD and the FBI had infiltrated and tried to sabotage the protest movement then. It's really chilling.

Elias: never saw that one. But everybody in the city knew about the NYPD 'Red Squad'. Part of being in the labor movement was being willing to fight these people.
The unions with a narrow focus on their own members, that never ventured into larger political visions, even the corrupt unions, never a target like the lefties.
