Val Kilmer and Xzibit Sign on for Bad Lieutenant

err

sigh.

okay cell, one last time... now listen closely:

its none of those things.
he's just using the name.

stupid.

NAME GOES HERE

how can they already be remaking of a movie that was made in '92?

Anyway i'd never heard of it but this will probably suck: Nicolas Cage couldn't act if his life depended on it and in Ghost Rider (where he was also with Eva Mendez) his acting seemed to have fallen to an all-time low

CelluloidDreams

remake / re-imagining / re-something of Abel Ferrara's cult classic....What ever it's all the same thing!!

HOLLYWOOD STOP....Remakes / Re-imagining's / Re-something or another!!! BS!! PURE BS!!

err

its neither actually.
check out the interview here:

http://defamer.com/395038/defiant-werner-herzog-to-defamer-who-is-abel-ferrara

it turns out hes just using the name to anger fans of the original, as a form of publicity. there will be no connection between any of the characters or storylines, and it will be filmed in new orleans because he said theyll get a nice tax-break if they shoot there.

and he insults abel ferrera repeatedly throughout the interview.

CelluloidDreams

Ohhh and Calling a film "NOT" a Re-Make butsome "Re-Telling" is the same damn thing!

CelluloidDreams

Being a fan of the 1992 film W./Harvey Keitel..not to thrilled W./a Re-Make...esp of a "Cult Classic"..but hellwhat can U do...Hollywood loves the money ....SO far W./the casting of Val Kilmer this is the "ONLY" bright spot in this mess!!

Not thrilled W./the casting of Nicolas Cage & Eva Mendes!!

SoylentGreenAnyone???

anything involving nic cage is not for me

SLIM

I never thought XZIBIT could act, but then I saw XXX2 and Derailed, and Gridiron Gang, I think Gridiron Gang was the best

err

with a body of work including writing for shows like COP ROCK and l.a.law, i wouldnt expect too much from mr. finklestein.

after having read the interview with herzog id like to kick him in the nuts... having said that, i should probably point out that i do like werner herzog i just think he should be more respectful to abel ferrera, who has directed some of my favorite movies, including bad lietenant and king of new york, among others.

I'll probably check this out just based on the cast.
