Off topic, but this is the first time I saw 'YART' (took me a second to figure out what it meant) and it makes an awesome word.

Re: YART: Total Recall and The Neverending Story
I like both originals but think the source material is there to make 2 vastly different remakes. I'm down for both as long as they get some talent behind them (sounds like TNE will definitely get some good attention if Kennedy/Marshall gets the rights...)

Unlike Clue, I have no problem with this. There is plenty of room for a re-imagining of TNES. The original was great, but it's a world that has plenty of room for re-interpreting.

If you guys haven't seen the official music video from "Neverending Story," you're in for a treat.

Re: YART: Total Recall and The Neverending Story
The Neverending Story can be updated. Kids today laugh at its "special" effects, as they're a clear halfway point between Harryhausen and what we have today. Not to say that they are right in doing so.
Plus, anything will be better than the sequel.

Re: YART: Total Recall and The Neverending Story
cant wait to see how terrible The NEver Ending Story remake will be. There is no way it'll be half as dark, scary and depressing as the original is.

Re: YART: Total Recall and The Neverending Story
Neverending Story III is one of the most surreal and insane films I've ever seen. It stars a pre-famous Jack Black as the leader of a gang of Moe-and-Larry misfits, gnomes that mail themselves around in a FedEx package, and a baby rock creature (the offspring of the one from the first film) that has a giant diaper and is hidden in a boy's bedroom.
But yeah, I'd hate for them to remake this. It's one of the last vestiges of my childhood that remains untouched.

Re: YART: Total Recall and The Neverending Story
Except if the remake of Total Recall is now an accurate adaptation of We Can Remember It For You Wholesale, it'll be 5 minutes long (if you stretch out all the scenes as much as possible).

Re: YART: Total Recall and The Neverending Story
They should just mash both remakes into one film:
Neverending Recall: The Total Story
Directed by Terry Gilliam
Can you imagine the mindfuck that would ensue?

Total Recall being remade? Come the fuck on.
Schwarzenegger's best non-James Cameron venture, and one of Verhoeven's best getting remade?
I hope this gets torn to shreds, you know like Johnnycab.
