Werner Herzog's BAD LIEUTENANT remake? Double-You Tee Eff?

Ahoy, squirts! Quint here. What the shit is going down at Cannes? Why is every single report coming out of Cannes feeling like an April Fools joke? Seriously. Point Break sequel? Donnie Darko sequel focusing on Donnie's little sister? Werner Herzog remaking BAD LIEUTENANT with Nicolas Cage in the Harvey Keitel role? WTF?!? These aren't jokes, people. These are real projects. Is this the first American film from the '90s that's being remade? I know we can point to any number of Asian films from the '90s and '00s being remade, but this is the first I can think of that's American to American from that decade. Can you count reboots like THE HULK? Probably not... since the new one seems to pick up where the last left off. Curiouser and curiouser. Next we'll hear that there's a remake of the remake of PSYCHO with Shia LaBeouf starring and Spielberg directing in SCHINDLER'S LIST style black and white... to make it feel more like the original...
