Those cast lists are terrible.
Why remake it? What's wrong with this one?

No, but if they do they should get Hackyboy back. He's ace. And see if they can get Kristofferson this time.

Uhhhh.no.

My own cast
Rhodes - Dennis Quaid
Wilkes - Gary Busey
Blaster - Peter Horton
Sailor - Mike Starr
Scott - Jason Wiles
Johnson - Reg E. Cathey
Charts - Kurt Russell
MacGregor Gene Hackman.
Terrific, a six-demon bag. Sensational. What's in it, Egg?

If you are talking Owen Wilson and Chris Klein, they have done some dramatic work ( Behing Enemy Lines and We Were Soldiers), so am I still stupid ?! And a lot of comedic actors can do drama Jim Carrey, Bill Murray, Tom Hanks, you're right, people who have starred in comedic roles should only do that for the rest of their careers.
"There's not going to be a remake of this cause it wasn't really all that huge. " I started this post as something entertaining and to get people talking, not because I am dying for a remake. Have you ever heard of having fun ????
"Playin' it cool."

Though it has it's funny moments, it's not a comedy. So the idea that you would throw in comical actors is stupid. There's not going to be a remake of this cause it wasn't really all that huge.

And even leaving it to a Vietnam plot wouldn't be that bad, but yes, since the Iraqi war is still a fresh thing, a movie based around that could also work.
Do you have any casting ideas?

The "Uncommon Valor" plot could be used in rescuing left behind prisoners of the Iraqi war but Hollywood is being careful about movies that relate to the war. This can be made after the war is officially over.
