Red Dawn Remake--WTF?
Just a simple redo with us vs. North Korea (originally China, but apparently China said no.)
Even better is it's featuring Josh from Josh and Drake. Due 11-21-2012, it has no real trailers yet, but it does have a website. www.reddawnmovienews.com I think I'm going to be sick. |

IIRC in the original, they came up through Mexico and split the country in half
I doubt they could even get into Mexico unnoticed, but that's slightly more feasable |

Maybe if North Korea managed to nuke every major city and government office simultaniously they could put up a fight.

The same would have been true of the Soviet Union in the original movie. If you bought into the original premise you should have no trouble with this one. Movies aren't real, but gullible people are. The original movie was entertaining, but fantasy. It was no more realistic than the new movie.

No, it isn't. But people wanted a "rah rah, America is the best!!!!" movie in the 80s so they bought into it.

I spend several months a year in South Korea (just returned Saturday). Take North Korea seriously, they are a threat. They may not be a threat to invade the US (the Soviet Union wasn't either), but trust me, they are a threat.

They just don't have the capacity to do it in a Red Dawn scenario. |

Are the bad guys going to drop food on a highway to spring a trap, instead of just poisoning the food?

Well yeah, NO country is a real threat to invade the U.S., but among the list of candidates NK's pretty close to the bottom

They're a threat to South Korea. For about a week.

We can hope our technology can overcome their millions of troops. I hope to never see if you are right, especially since there is about a 30% chance I would be there when it happens (since I spend about 30% of my year there).
Unfortunately, they are also a threat to the US, both militarily and economically. Thankfully there are people who understand this and do their part to prevent it. You are welcome. |
