THE FACULTY Is getting a remake

[Killer Instinct]

Classic film. I'm still at them having Usher front and center on the poster and he had 60 seconds of screen time total. A lot of sisters got bamboozled into that theatre.

His career trajectory is one of those great mysteries along with Derek Luke. I dont get it..

Loved this movie but why a remake?

Hollywood out of ideas

 

[kt773]

Wild ass movie when you think about the og…the schools dope dealer saves the day

 

[Black Excellence]

Love this movie still watch it once yearly.. had a lot of potential. Remake could be interesting with a great writer.

 

[Fillerguy]

It doesn't need a reboot.

Give us a sequel with Zeke as a man character. Zeke is probably the top 5 coolest high school characters ever.
He's super senior who:
- is a chem genius that makes his own shyt at home and school
- fukks his teachers
- a pothead that can start varsity football as a walk on
- drives a classic muscle car, where he sells drugs out of
- basically raises himself because his parents are like art dealers who travel the world.
- has bootleg movies that don't exist
- damn near saved the world from an alien invasion by himself.

OG version is dope

 

[BlackMajik]

This should be interesting lol

Watched the 1st one again on prime before the game today. When I watched this as a youngin only person I knew as usher. Had no idea so many stars were in this. The alien at the end looked cheesy as hell but I was entertained. I just can’t see a remake for it though



The faculty definitely hit every single 90’s-early 00’s highschool movie cliche. Over the top football coach, nerd, QB jock, goth girl who doesn’t fit in, the bad boy outlaw who’s parents aren’t around.

A remake could probably work, in theory. The Faculty is simply a Body Snatchers rip off which, to quote Stokley, is "a blatant ripoff of The Puppet Master." However, how many of the Body Snatchers remakes have been good? But it's the perfect mix of high school character archetypes, cheese, fun, sci-fi, action, tension that makes it work. And all of the characters get a chance to shine.

This was a classic in middle school, I remember that too. I used to clown my homie for wearing some jacket like Usher was wearing. The lettermans shyt.

Watched this again over the weekend and the biggest thing that popped out to me was Robert Patrick, who was basically re-living his Terminator days in it. Could tell bro was having the time of his life filming it.

Had Frodo out there snorting coke.

I was down on it at first but I think this remake can shine. The original felt like The Breakfast Club and The Thing had a baby and…I wouldn’t mind seeing that done again? We haven’t had a film like that in a minute. The homie who wrote Companion is handling it and that had a tight, yet fun script.

A lot higher on this remake than what Hollywood’s trying to do with Takashi Miike’s ‘Audition’.

So Usher pulled a Stomp The Yard before Chris lol.

"I've definitely said no to some of the wrong people. I said no because I was tired and wanted to spend more time with my friends and family. That's frowned upon in this industry. People don't like being told no," he told the magazine. "I don't like it. I learned my lesson when [writer-director] Christopher Nolan and I talked about Batman. I decided it wasn't for me. Then he didn't want to put me in 'The Prestige.' They not only hired their Batman for it, they also hired my girlfriend at the time."
The girlfriend he was referring to was Scarlett Johansson.
"That's when I realized relationships were formed in the fire of that first Batman film and I should have been part of the relationship with this guy Nolan, who I felt was incredibly cool and very talented," he said. "I was so focused on not being pigeonholed and so scared of being considered only one thing as an actor. I should have thought, Well, then, work harder, man. Watching Christian Bale go on to do so many other things has been just awesome. I mean, he's been able to overcome that. Why couldn't I see that at the time?"

Why Josh Hartnett Regrets Not Doing 'Batman'

Looking back, it's hard to imagine anyone other than Christian Bale playing the most recent "Batman," but it could have been Josh Hartnett.

he was a hot commodity back in the early 2000s, and almost every big picture wanted him in the lead.
"Spider-Man was something we talked about. Batman was another one. But I somehow knew those roles had potential to define me, and I didn't want that," he told Details magazine (http://www.details.com/celebrities-entertainment/movies-and-tv/201405/josh-hartnett-interview-showtime-penny-dreadfu) of passing on the iconic characters.
He also passed on 2006's "Superman Returns."
"I didn't want to be labeled as Superman for the rest of my career. I was maybe 22, but I saw the danger."
Hartnett admits that he and his agents even parted ways after passing on such projects.
"I didn't have those agents for much longer after that,” he said. “There was a lot of infighting between my manager and agents, trying to figure out who to put the blame on. It got to the point where none of us were able to work together.”
