Glad to hear Recall 2012 is flopping.It was a bad idea to remake a classic Arnie flick ( Especially with Colin bleedin Farrell ).

Wouldn't have minded a new adaptation of "We Can Remember It...." but by calling their movie Total Recall, they were very much marketing themselves on the shoulders of someone else's movie. They're saying THIS is Total Recall, as if it didn't work the worst time around and they're improving the formula. Such exercises seem somewhat insulting to makers of the original- a movie which is beloved by many.
Hollywood would do well to stop giving their remakes the same name as the original.

I don't see how you can suggest that Diary Of A Wimpy Kid3 is a flop yes it hasn't done the business of the 1st 2 but it still only cost $22m to make & is already 3/4s of the way to making it's money back in it's opening weekend which is hardly the sign of a flop.
