Can Denzel pull off Yule Brenner?

I see Christian Bale too.


I wonder how bad it will suck. Commiewood hasn't been making the grade when it comes to remakes in a while.

I'll reserve judgment.  I like Denzel, Star Lord, and Pvt Pyle.  How does Bunghole Lee fit in though???

Sure wish they'd do the Afghanistan one, Rubicon, though...

What's next?  The Great Escape? The Bridge on the River Kwai?

Those three alone would make it difficult to suck, unless the writers are reaaaally bad.

I would rather see a remake of Seven Samurai.  This movie is gonna be so sterilized by a politically correct Hollyweird that they'll all probably be discussing their feelings before braiding each others hair.

Nope, the original.  The Magnificent Seven was a blatant rip off, right down to the girl disguising herself as a boy.

It was actually damned good for a black and white flick in Japanese.

I'm thinking Denzel is Yul Brenner and Star Lord is Steve McQueen.  Ethan Hawke looks twitchy so I'm guessing he's Napoleon Solo.

I have no idea who the Chinaman is supposed to be.  Unless he's the young Mexican kid and the movie is set in China and the cowboys were shipped in.

ETA:  Jeez, there was a lot of Chinese labor in the West, so I guess, somehow, there could be a Chinese character but has there EVER been a Chinese cowboy/gunfighter/outlaw (outside some Chinatown)?

A black cowboy isn't hard to believe though.  I think I read somewhere that at one time blacks made up 20% of the cowboys out west.

Then this is a remake of a remake, not a remake of a remake of a remake.  



I've seen Seven Samurai, but I never saw The Magnificent Seven.  It was indeed damn good.

Came here to post this. Sometimes bastardized remakes are worthy. The Magnificent Seven (1960) is a great example.

Probably Ethan hawk. Just a guess as a) he's the only one I recognise and b) he's quite thin.

Terrible terrible,idea. Magnificent 7 is defininitely one of the best film ever made.

I'd watch it...  Vincent D'Onofrio and Denzel Washington should make it worth while.  I don't think Ethan Hawke is a hack either.

I think this a pretty good cast.

Denzel, Hawke, Pratt, D'Onofrio, and Lee.  Lee is a pretty good action star, but I think an old school Chow Yun Fat gunplay would be bad ass.

For those of you frowning on the diversity, give it a rest. A modern retelling of a bunch of misfits who do something heroic should hopefully capitalize on this cast.

This isn't a factual documentary of the Old West.

Absolute iconic masterpiece by Elmer Bernstein.

ETA: His son goes around giving retrospective concerts on his father's work, they're very entertaining and if your local symphony hosts one, it's worth seeing.
