The Remake


They should remake this with Jake Gyllenhaal & Scarlett Johansson in the leads with Paul Bettany as the husband and Keifer Sutherland as the detective.

It should be rewritten slightly so that the ghost bits at the end are more scarier and darker, as I found them a bit boring. And BinJip should escape from Prison using his newly discovered mutant powers.
The pace should be quickened cos at times the film dragged.

boring and slow, but that's how most Asian films are

The fact you've just said that, proves my point exactly. They should remake them so they are not boring. Unless of course you like paying to sit in a darkened room and be bored to tears?

So, yeah, 3-Iron... Good Movie.

With all due respect, I think that a remake of this one would be a so stupid, films like this do ot function in the Hollywood enviorment, period. And all though the actors you mention for the parts is good ones, they would never pull of the perfection of the original film, never. why rewrite and remake, in my opinioon, perfection?

reply

OK, maybe not remake it, maybe they could add some CGI like in the original star wars trilogy
They could add in some more monsters to make it scarierer, like Gorge Lucas did with Jabba's Palace. Maybe make BinJips eyes go yellow/red when he shapeshifts / enters cloaking stealth mode. This would rock.
Who's with me?

The vast majority of people replying to this thread need to learn the meaning of sarcasm. I hope.

Yeah this and Kim Ki Duk's "The Isle" should be remade with Brett Ratn.. no Renny Harlin directing, yeah. With Kirsten Bell as the battered woman in 3-iron and the sea nymph in the Isle. Nick Cage can play the guy who takes a dump off the float cabin.

I honestly can't understand how some Hollywood idiot can remake this beautiful, moving and unique film! It's absolutely crazy! What the hell is happening to Hollywood?!?! Can't they think of their own films anymore or do they have to keep remaking foreign films and older films?! It's mad. I have complete confidence that one day, the American film industry will collapse completely the way they are going now!

I love 3-Iron I thought it was beautiful. So powerful...Kim Ki-Duk is one talented artist :)

OR they should not remake it at all, because there is nothing glaringly wrong with it and it was made in 2004.

The whole golf bits were lame. No one plays golf. The Hollywood remake needs to replace it with American football and I vote the new mutant power should be laser eye beams.=D

If this movie were American




it would totally suck.

Parts of it are odd, but it can get away with them by being a foreign, Asian film. By US standards, some of the parts are just too off-the-wall to fly.

reply

yeah and they should add some guns too.. maybe the husband could turn out in the final moment to be a drug dealer and the wife a heroin addict and then the kid uses his mutant powers to go back in time, kil lthe director before he writes the movie and then return tothe matrix

Are you out of your f'ing mind?
