The acting was terrible in my opinion. The special effects of the creature is was what kept me interested. Why does everyone get their panties in a bunch when someone wants to retell a story? If people think they shouldn't retell, remake, etc.....then dont watch it. I thought the Host was mediocre at best. The acting was terrible in my opinion.

You make this into a low budget hollywood DVD movie, you get something like Lake placid 2, the problems come to the surface and can't be ignored because you watching your fellow country men act like crap, with a crap story and over the top yet really crap low bdget effects. I doubt this will see the big screen. The original was fun, something different with flaws that could be ignored, you replace the koreans with americans with the same story, you get the same straight to DVD excrement that is churned out everyday - why bother?

From my understanding, Gore Verbinski isn’t directing. He’s producing/overseeing. So it don’t matter how good or bad the Pirates films were. It means nothing.

Two
Host was really good. It wasn’t really great. Why remake it though? It’s pointless.

Three
Just as long as Hollywood keeps the remake mitts of Shiri I’m good.

I wouldnt, by any means, say this was a bad film... i just thought it was VERY slow, very overrated, and the story is fine, but just nothing that spectacular. The reason for any hype over this film escapes me. Although for big fans, it does suck that it will be bastardized by Hollywood and when MOST people think of this film, the sure-to-be-shitty American version will be what they think of...

What drew me to the theater to see the first (and only one I saw) pirates film was the fact that verbinski directed it. You're forgetting he did the ring remake which was actually really well made and he managed to bring about his own style to it. Not to mention he also did The Weather Man which I thought was also really good too. I'm curious to see what he does with this and yes, I own The Host on DVD and love it. But instead of getting bent out of shape about remakes which really doesn't do anything...try to just say fuck it and hope for the best. Who knows? maybe this guy will bring something new to the table and we will have a stylish re-imaging like Carpenter did with The Thing. Or Cronenberg did with The Fly, or maybe like Kaufman did with Invasion of the Body Snatchers.
