Seven Samurai Remake

[bryant]

Oh, yay, the Weinsteins are investing money in Asian film…

“Titles slated for the fund include… a remake of Japanese director Akira Kurosawa’s 1950’s epic The Seven Samurai.”

What the hell?

I'm vaguely interested to see what they'd do with Seven Samurai. Mostly scared, though.

I'd actually like to see the story cut down in length -- which is certainly what'd happen -- as right now I feel the requisite number of times to watch that movie is "one."
