Absolutely loved the original, but I know some folks have no tolerance for subtitles or even a dubbed flick. Thats the real shame.
I agree - it's too bad. These folks are missing out on a ton of goodness.
I also agree. I think the average North American movie goer would rather watch paint dry than have to read a movie.

I can't see Spielberg or Smith caring anything about remaking that particular film. Especially Spielberg, I know he's done a couple of remakes/reimagings but seems like Old Boy is just too fresh and too well done to turn around and redo.
I can. Spielberg, imo, is now all about the almighty $. All he wants to do is try to make blockbusters with the hollywood "A" list. Smith I can see wanting to do it because it's a juicy role and would garner him yet another big paycheck. And for an example of how "fresh" and "well done" doesn't matter, [REC] was remade before it was even released here.
