iTunes Trailers and via YouTube, you'll find a couple of 2.5 minute trailers.

Dude let me tell you. Total Recall is a classic for me. I recently coerced the wife into watching it in all its Standard Def 4:3 Dolby Pro Logic glory.

That's all the preparation I needed, she's now wanting to see the remake almost as much as I do.

There was really only ONE question I had related to content that must be brought into the reboot... As a matter of fact I do have an extra hand.

Give THESE people air. I assure you. I know my Total Recall ;)

Naturally it's nowhere near as good as the book that inspired it. And it's also nowhere near as good as it could have been, when Cronenberg was going to direct it. But as an Arnie film it ranks as one of his best.

Also, fuck this stupid remake. Colin Farrell? ARGH!

I would probably watch a Kindergarten Cop remake b/c there are tons of hilarious routes that can go nowadays.

Is this a direct remake or a reboot?

Remake - Practically verbatim of it's predecessor.

Reboot - Retelling the origin.

From what I've seen and read, I consider this a remake. Even some of the dialog is the same.

I kind of like the idea of Farrell in the role. He rose to prominence then did STV crap for 5 years. I think he can pull it off.

I would have liked to have seen Sam. Not because of the Arnold - Terminator tie-in :P

Because I think he's a badass.

Sam is growing on me. I like Farrell though. Loved him in The Recruit. I wasn't heavy into Total Recall but I'm glad they're bringing back the 3D's (see what I did there?)
