in the wake of all these terrible remakes of classic films, will this break the chain or forge it further?

>>67112153

William Wyler must be rolling in his grave.

What possible argument could be made for this existing
>>67113364
its absolutely bizarre to me that someone thought this was a good idea
who wants to see this exactly? who is this aimed at? you already have 2 amazing ben hur films, why would you even attempt to make a third one?
Looks like they're completely discarding the aspect of the old movie where Judah learns the good side of the empire and turning the Romans into just le oppressers.

... There's four.
1907, 1925 and 1959 (IMHO the best ones).
>>67112055
are you fucking kidding me?
>>67113426
I was surprised (and disappointed) to see that this wasn't made by the hack of all hacks, Sony.
I dont know much about Ben Hur but... isn't this pretty much "Gladiator" 2.0 from a story telling perspective?
Look at the story stages, known warrior, family killed, lost himself, fighting in an arena to gain revenge.

They all blur together at some point. Hercules is Gladiator is Troy is Ben-Hur.
Fucking studio suit cunts think they can repackage the same shit and sell it to me again, no fucking way.
>>67112055
It actually looks really really bad.
Seriously the part where he falls out of the boat looks like a video game.
>>67112055
who are these people?
now some films are good when they get unknown people. this is not the fucking case.
for
what
purpose

>a 300 style ben hur
kill me
>>67113364
it has name recognition and 300: birth of a nation or whatever earned back it's budget
>>67112055
Thanks for ruining my childhood again, Hollywood.
>>67112055
>CGI Roman battles
Fucking weak as fuck. The live action scene of the roman legions in Kubricks Spartacus was fucking amazing.
