Looks like it will be a good movie.

It seems like the last decade has been pretty soft on simply making fun to go watch action movies. Glad to see there is some inertia to get back to it.

I saw awhile back how this was originally delayed because they had to change the original Chinese invaders to Korean

They did make that change, and it caused some delay, but the biggest reason for the delay was MGM going bankrupt in November 2010.  http://screenrant.com/red-dawn-remake-delayed-kofi-64310/

Don't forget to pre-order your Blu-Ray version of the original:  Red Dawn Blu-Ray at Amazon.com

growing up in Colorado, there was so many times we played out that movie in the woods behind my house.

it also helped to have a friend named Jedd, who's dad was in the ARMY, so we had access to all the cool surplus type stuff that he had.

I cant wait to see the remake when it comes out.

The original Red Dawn is the sole reason behind my paranoia and survivalist tendencies.  I do not need to see this one....but I will.

Wolverines!

Ditto.  The trailer does look good.

Apparently Hollywood has completely run out of original ideas.  Reboot's of classic movies are NEVER better or even in the same league as the original.  This one will tank at the box office and rightfully so.  This is going to be a turd of a movie.

Probably not gonna see it in the theater. But I will see it when it comes out on Blue Ray.

Do I expect it to be as good as the original? No, and apparently it has a different story line than the original one.

I am kind of interested to see how Josh Peck (Nickelodeons Drake and Josh) plays in an action movie. He was a big goofy clutsy nerd in Drake and Josh.

it will be a PC cluster, not interested

at least in the 80's it was OK to hate your enemy, now doing so will make you a racist and a bigot.

i love the orignal Red Dawn, it's fun to watch. i'm intrested in the movie Gray State, maybe it will be OK

I wish they would have used a more likely scenario. I wish they would have  used the UN as the invaders!

"Battle:Los Angeles" was an absolute "fun to go watch action movie".

"Red Dawn" was a decent movie when I was 36.  Now, kinda meh.

  I remember the first time I saw the original in the theater,  everyone was cheering when they finally fought back.  I agree, it will be a PC goat F**K.  Most people now a days don't have the pride or patriotic spirit that we had 20 yrs ago.  The Soviet Union was our enemy, and we knew it.

  Now people don't care, as long as it doesn't interupt their american idol, dancing with the stars, snookie or any of the other crap,

And like Greg said, the movie really made you stop and think about what could happen.    Remember all the info in the beginning of the movie, Soviets have low wheat crops, NATO dissolves, etc

What do you think Charlie Sheen has to say about this?
