Will Smith is a great actor, he was very serious in Ali so it may work but I still think he's the wrong choice. Still he can do serious when it's needed.

Yes, very serious Romero. He so should've won over Denzel Washington, what a seriously overrated film that was.

I'm unsure if you're agreeing or disagreeing Gas?

"American remake for Suicide Club?
This project is real, it’s currently in the work and I’m set to direct it."
- Shion Sono
- http://wildgrounds.com/index.php/2010/0 ... i-typhoon/

Wonder how they'll remake a film that was so much about Japanese culture and its diseases...

... but I guess the gore will be enough to sell it to US audiences. Has been done before...

... and Sono's touch and fresh air can take it pretty far if the actors are ok and the studio allows it. And Sono has already shot one good film in the US...

... but if they were honestly gonna make "Suicide Club in the US" then it ought to be about the school massacres. But they would never have guts to do that...

...but please, no American Idol on the soundtrack. Won't work like Dessert / Haruko Momoi
