My favorite scene from the original Total Recall is when the feisty midget hooker starts firing her machine gun from the bar top  :
Here's the link if someone would like to imbed it : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9m3vKBftITw The original movie does not need to be redone, just like Red Dawn.

Quoted:
The first one was a fucking garbage ass movie. Hopefully this one isn't. I Disagree. The original movie was quintessential 1980's and will be remembered as such, the good and the bad.  The movie was pretty popular at the time.
"Total Recall debuted at No.1 at the box office.[12] The film grossed $261,299,840 worldwide, a box office success. Critical reaction to Total Recall has been mostly positive. It currently holds an 81% positive rating on Rotten Tomatoes, based on 42 reviews.[13] " - Wikipedia |

Quoted: Quoted: I certainly dig sci fi that is far out in the future, especially if it's a dark and dreary future, Bladerunner comes to mind. So basically any PK Dick story "Screamers" was a pretty decent adaptation of one of his stories. i enjoyed the hell out of 'screamers'. |

I don't read, but I liked the original, if this is good on its own I'll like it. I certainly dig sci fi that is far out in the future, especially if it's a dark and dreary future, Bladerunner comes to mind. Blade Runner is a lot darker and drearier of a movie once you've read about the setting described in Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? |

I don't know if I've seen Screamers, I don't remember it. Didn't know it was a PK Dick story, I'll have to check that out and watch it this weekend. |

Isn't it that most of the Humans had left Earth? One of the supposedly reasons why it's such a shithole, from what I heard. |
