    With all the talk of Hollywood remakes of Asian films lately, this is one title I never heard being mentioned....Chan-Wook Park's Joint Security Area
    I know what you're thinking....this is supposed to be about the conflict between North and South of Korea? Yeah. They're adapting it to the vicious rivalry between...............America and Mexico.
    It's going to be about illegal immigration.

    And the Asian cinema world weeps again....

    "Didnt see this one coming". Why not? Its Asian, its realtively popular, its held in high regards, no movie is safe.Its a winner for hollywood. (The Movie is already made therefore no need to come up with anything original+able to churn it out fast+ if it worked in Asia it will probably work here lets steal it)xmediocre but recognisable lead actors= Souless piece of crapX$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
    $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
    $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$


    Thats the standard formula for your modern hollywood remake of decent asian films because people are bored ****less of the standard,cliched,boring hollywood crap we've all been fed for so long.
