WHAT THE FUCK! WHY ARE THERE SO MANY FUCKING REMAKES NOWADAYS?!?!?!? THE ONLY SHIT AMERICANS CHURN OUT NOW ARE REMAKES AND SEQUELS. HAH THEY'LL FUCKING REMAKE SCREAM SOON AND THEY'LL REMAKE THE DESCENT TEN YEARS FROM NOW. stupid motherfuckers!

I think its much too soon for this.

fuck off with all the remakes! i loved candyman!

oh crap, I just vomited all over my laptop.

i agree with thedecent08...No one can play Candyman better than Tony Todd

Candyman was classic. It still gives me the creeps to this day.

All we gotta do is get Alexandre Aja to direct it, Platinum Dunes to produce it, and Bloody Disgusting to implement some nauseating popup ad concerning the film over every nook and cranny of the site, and you philistines will be sucking eachother's dicks waiting for it to come out.

Stop going to see them and they will stop. Its really simple. But yeah, pathetic.

this is fucking sad, Candyman isn't even 2 decades old and was perfect. Absolutely nothing can be improved by remaking this film...really sad. I thought that the writers strike was over?!?!?

I think they should remake Transformers. It´s already 1 year old and remake could be more effective than original. ;)

What is up with all the stupid remakes? It's enough to drive a person insane!!!!

Isn't Sony pictures the studio in the business of PG-13 horror remakes? Prom Night, Hell Night, and Stepfather. Fuck a PG-13 remake of Candyman! Come to think of it, fuck ANY remake of Candyman.

this movie is not that old at all. it was made in the 90s. Wow im sick of this.

ANOTHER FUCKING REMAKE! AGGHHHHHHHHH, GIVE IT UP HOLLYWOOD, YOU'RE SHIT!!!!

I know, this is kinda stretching it. Candyman is from the 90s. That wasn't too long ago. What's next, are they going to remake Saw and Cabin Fever? Seriously, they are getting too close to the 2000s with these remakes. Let's remake The Craft, The Faculty and Scream. Don't forget I Know What You Did Last Summer and Hostel. They ALL need remakes NOW! @_@

do you guys HAVE TO use puns all the time?

sacrilege!

I've already told myself that Hollywood is going to remake every horror movie ever, but still when I hear another remake being planned I still get pissed off. Stop remaking all our movies and come up with something new and original already.

How about a new Candyman 3 instead? Candyman: Day of the Dead was a weak sequel, so instead of remaking the original, which isn't even 20 years old yet, they should do a new sequel instead.

NO. CANDYMAN is a classic! no more remakes! its not even that old! just rerelease it!

NNNNNOOOOOOOOO!!! I'm all up for the Friday the 13th and the Nightmare on Elm Street remake but this! Leave Candyman be. But if you want give us a Candyman 4. I woundn't mind seeing the hook and the bees back!

I agree, even though I can't stomach a NOES remake. I mean, it's not as jaw-dropping when they announce remakes to horror movies from the 70s and 80s. But, it DOES get attention when it's a remake of a movie from the 90s. Whereas a lot of younger fans might not remember(were babies) or weren't even born during the 70s and 80s, the 90s seems to be the general decade mostly everybody "modern" falls back on cause unless you were born in the late 90s, most teenagers and early 20-year olds DO remember the 90s fondly. Hence, there's more people out there ready to say, "Wait a minute, that movie isn't THAT old! Why are they remaking it?!". Also, look at the original Candyman. It was, IMO, one of the last great horror classic movies before horror became trendy in the mid-90s with MTV-Teen horror(Kevin Williamson-typed horror) which would branch off into modern PG-13 horror and overgore torture porn. I shudder to think WHO exactly they will get to play Candyman. Tony Todd captured the original chillingly well. He was an AWESOME horror villain, right up there with Jason, Freddy and Pinhead. They'll probably get Busta Rhymes for the remake.

I'd rather they remake this movie than a Nightmare on Elm Street, however it's still disappointing news because we all know it's going to be a sh*t remake because 90% of remakes are like that. You guys were warned not to pay to see remakes years ago from people like Adam Green, and yet you'll still go see it and then bitch about it afterwards, not realising that you've persuaded the studios to make more profitable remakes, and that you wasted your money funding the Hollywood remake factory!!!

cmon it was made in like 1992!! looks like remakes are heading into the 90's now :(

Speaking of remakes, I am in the process of remaking my life but they tell me I cannot become a fetus again. So now I am just gonna go rub one off.

THat's why I said, the 2000s are next. We're going to have something like, "Rob Zombie's Saw" and "Platinum Dune's Final Destination". It's starting to come full circle. At first, the only adamant fans agaisnt remakes were the older fans who loved the 70s and 80s horror. But now it's slipping into the 90s, and people who thought, "Well, remakes aren't that bad, cause they were of older movies I've never seen!" are no like, "Wait, that movie came out not so long ago! They can't do this! What the hell?!". People don't fret until it hits close to home. In a way, it reminds me of that episode of Family Guy when they have that abstinence assembly at school and the guy hosting the event tries to talk hip. You have all the teens going, "Hey, he understands us!" and, "He's sitting in his chair backwards, let's listen to what he has to say!". That's what modern remakes seem like. They try to hit that hip nerve. Kinda like the Rocky Horror remake(which I hear will have a hip hop version of the Time Warp). That's crap there. That's why I said, better start guessing right now, cause the new Candyman will most likely be played by SOME famous rapper.

I hear they are remaking "The Dark Knight" to be released this Christmas.

REMAKING 90's MOVIES IS SIN!! SIN!!!!

really isnt necessary, the original is still fresh. and if tony doesnt play him theres no way i wanna see it.

The just better not have a "white" candyman because that would just screw all the imagery up. Every one knows the Candyman as a Colored guy so they at least should leave it at that.

I actually would be at least open to the idea of the Candyman not necessarily being black. The Candyman was based on Clive Barker's story "The Forbidden" and the Candyman's race doesn't come into play in that story at all. There's no mention of his skin color. At the same time, the Candyman being black is part of what makes the project so unique.

they can do a remake/sequel with Daniel possessing a new body to track down the his youngest decedent(the little girl from the last one)

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!my gosh! candyman came out 92!! this is bull crap! they need to screw the remakes. i agree with you halloween fan. who in the right mind would they get to play candyman?!?! tony todd is the only one that can do it right along with robert englund as freddy. alright these people need shot in the head! ill deal withthe f13 that i am siked for and i liked the tcm remake. but not candyman. this sucks. ok so heres to the stupid teeny boppers can go and see this. and that candyman will prob. be "toned town". id rather see a fourth candyman than a third one. cant anyone come with any ORIGINAL ideas!?!?1...figured i knew it was only a matter of time......

i agree with thedescent08
