Straw Dogs Remake
I need some help identifying some guns in the trailer for the Straw Dogs remake. Here's the trailer:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7krZZabaC_U It surprisingly looks good for a remake (which usually suck). And it has a great cast (James Marsden, Kate Bosworth, Alexander Skarsgård, Dominic Purcell, James Wood). Although I'd prefer if Elijah Wood and Evangeline Lily play David and Amy Summer and Charlie Hunnam play Charlie Venner.

I like how you say it's a great cast, but then recast the main actors. I've never been a fan of Bosworth. Marsden's a good actor, I know a lot of people are bitching because they wanted a more wimpy Hoffman type. But I'm kinda of glad they didn't go that route. Picking someone that at least looks like he can give that big Swede a run for his money.
Your dream cast probably would have been okay, but we'll never know.

There has been many a little wimpy looking guy that has killed hundreds of enemy soldiers in combat. See Audie Murphy. Anyway that's the idea behind Straw Dogs. A civilized, educated man who doesn't have the genetic background of a caveman but who learns to tap the animal inside himself and actually becomes more of a monster that those that he is fighting. The character can't and shouldn't look like he hangs out at in the free weight room and the local Y. I think that this famous quote by Nietsche applies to the movie. "Those who fight monsters should take care that they never become one. For when you stand and look long into the abyss, the abyss also looks into you." ~ Frederich Nietsche Last edited by Jcordell; 09-01-2011 at 03:11 PM. |

Okay you're right. I'm 5'6" and I sprung to the defense of one of my fellow Brothers of the Height without really thinking about what you wrote. I like to think that I'm above (or is that below) the whole sensitive about height thing, but now and and again I'm all too Human. Sorry.

Generation Kill
I just noticed that both Colbert and Trombley from Generation Kill are in this film. Weird.
