  1. They're doing an American re-make? I don't like that at all. Part of what makes the movie cool is that it's in Norway, starring Norwegians. That just makes it seem more authentic, cause who really knows anything about what goes on up there? Most of my heritage is Norwegian, and I know absolutely nothing about that country. It just seems like a mythical place. If trolls lived anywhere, that's where it would be.

    I agree 100. Even though it was it was pretty good, I was upset when America made a "Dragon Tattoo" remake. And I was about to flip out when I heard that Stephen Spielberg and Will Smith were going to remake South Korea's "Old Boy." Old Boy is such a cult classic and most people have never heard of it, and I'd like to keep it that way.

    I appreciate the authenticity of original foriegn films, and I respect the low budgets that many of them have, relying on the acting to make the movie. If Spielberg and Will Smith remade Old Boy, it would probably have $100M budget...

    If anybody is hip to the South Korean movie scene, they are aboslutely DESTROYING the U.S. when it comes to original thrillers in the past 3-4 years...

  2. I've always come so close to checking this movie out but something made me skip over it. I might have to give it a shot, I acutally loved Cloverfield.

    I just saw that they're now doing an American remake of Troll Hunter.

    Dude, you sound exactly like me LOL. It got 4 outta 5 starts on Netflix user reviews, and the description sounds cool. I added it to my instant queue months ago, but would always scroll past it when looking for something to watch LOL.

    There is a similar "last movie you watched" thread on the Broncos forums, and multiple people chimed in about "Troll Hunter." So I figured what the hell and watched it yesterday. I was impressed. You should definitely check it out. I liked Cloverfield as well, but Troll Hunter is better. IMO of course.

    Talk of an American remake should be enough to tell you that it's worth watching. America steals and remakes every decent foreign film these days :ols:

  3. I just watched "Troll Hunter." I really enjoyed this movie. It's like "Cloverfield," except a lot better.

    I noticed on Netflix that this movie got pretty good ratings, but it just looked kinda cheesy. Well thanks to a bunch of people on other forums recommending it, I finally gave it a watch. I gotta say I was pretty impressed. 8/10.

    THIS. MOVIE. WAS. COOL.
