Total Recall remake has a writer!
One of the greatest movies ever.
I've mentioned before that Total Recall starring Arnold Schwarzenegger is one of my all time favorite science fiction films. It's an amazing movie! When word came out back in February that a remake was in the works I was pretty pissed off, but isn't everyone when a remake of a classic is announced? I'm still pretty pissed off - I think this is a horrible idea, however, more news has come out that I think needs to be commented on.
"Kurt Wimmer has been tapped to write Columbia's new version of 'Total Recall,' which Neal H. Moritz is developing and producing through his Original Films banner," The Hollywood Reporter tells us.
Kurt Wimmer is the writer and director of such scifi films as Equilibrium and Ultraviolet. Granted, most people aren't that crazy about those films but I'll admit that I actually love them. They're really a fun guilty pleasure for a bunch of reasons. Wimmer writing Total Recall is actually a cool thing, for me at least, for the simple reason that I like his past scifi actions. Will he direct it? There isn't any word yet.
Since we have no choice and we have to accept that a remake is coming, I'm cool with Wimmer writing it. Let's face it, it's not like anyone could make a movie better than the original Paul Verhoeven film.
"The studio is keeping mum on the new take, simply calling a 'contemporized adaptation'," which basically means it's going to be the same shit except with a lot of CGI and no originality.
What do you think of Kurt Wimmer? Has anyone seen his past films?
