I just really don't know about this remake. Nothing about these shots altho' very limited is making me think this will be good.

Is Josh the lead? He doesn't look the lead.

I think the one way i might like this movie if its quite the departure from the original. Perhaps only taking a few core elements of the original and adapting it into a more american grindhouse-esque type thing.

Am I the only one who kind of wanted to see them tackle the ending of the previous film? It would've been ballsy for an American film (though not unheard of) and lends a certain Greek tragedy flavor to the story. I appreciate that Lee wants to make his own interpretation, but still... I haven't heard great things about the manga's ending, and since the South Korean film is one of my personal favorites.....
