Red Dawn, Swayze or Hemsworth and why?

 

[Ziggidy]

Swayze......1984. Original seems to always carry with me. Also, the time period was much more appropriate, seemingly more patriotic.

I only saw the second one so I can't compare but it was good

 

[ArthAnsgar]

Both were good, both were appropriate for the time they were produced, but they are different movies for different times.

I only saw the original, and it was a fun watch but I think the whole premise is BS propaganda. It says without the US government, we would have to fight for our freedom against a foreign adversary. The truth is, the enemy is going to be the US government itself. I would have loved to see the sequel about the Wolverines fighting Democrat-controlled US forces, because that's what people need to see.

But anyone can make a movie nowadays. You don't need Hollywood. They did Chappaquiddick two years ago and it overperformed financially.

I agree but this one was made by United Artists and distributed by MGMUA entertainment Co. and I bet they decide what goes lol

I’d pay to see that

I have to go back and watch the original again, it’s been a while. I just happened to watch the remake last night. The movie would have been better except the costar, Hemsworth’s little brother was just a bad over actor. Almost ruined the movie for me. Who I think would have been the perfect costar is Dylan O’Brien

I think Hemsworth and O’Brien would have made an incredible pair onscreen.

The original move was the best by far. It is every HS kids fantasy. There were lots of controls put on it from the studio about who the invading soldiers would be, etc. The one line that sticks in my head is when the enemy commander tells his men to go to the sporting goods store and get the 4473 forms.

The original.

 

[jrbfishn]

The original. By far.

the first one........while it is still rather sy-fi, it was just more plausible at least as far as the actual ambushes, guns, the hardships.....and especially about raiding a gun shop for supplies......followed by the Cuban's comments to check the shop's 4473 forms to trace down the gun owners in the area.......that alone raised the hair on my neck.....

I agree they are both good, but I felt they were very different, the remake only generally followed the original story. Like two good rifles, wouldn't want to choose between the two.

 

[Square target]

Haven't seen the new one but Swayze was great in the original. I havent seen too many sequals or remakes that even come close to originals. Guess after the comments I'll have to check it out.

 

[Philmo11]

The concept was the same but that’s all they share.

 

[PrairieHunt]

Don't have the slightest what you people are talking about.
I've defunded Hollywood.
