Subrick Posted August 2, 2007 Posted August 2, 2007 This is an email that I sent to Universal 1 minute ago. Hello. My name is Richard Lowell. I am a 14 year old from Connecticut. Your movie Scarface has inspired me to write this. Now, hear me out, because this may sound a little bizarre. But, I have in mind a great idea for you. Now, we all know of all the remakes out there today; Psycho, Ocean's Eleven, Rob Zombie's Halloween, but I have an idea for a new remake: Scarface. Now, the idea I have in mind is for it to be a shot-for-shot remake of your 1983 classic, just like what Gus Van Sant did with his remake of Psycho. Now I already have a director in mind; get back Brian De Palma. He made the original movie great and he can do it again. For the roles, the 4 main characters (Tony, Manny, Elvira, and Gina), I already have those in mind as well; Freddy Rodriguez as Tony Montana Marc Anthony as Manny Ribera Mary Elizabeth Winstead as Elvira Jennifer Lopez as Gina Montana I have also come up with a few others; Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio as Mama Montana Steven Bauer as Frank Lopez Al Pacino as Alejandro Sosa That's what I have come up with. If you like, or if if you don't like it, email me at the address that you see. It is kenneth.lowell@snet.net Thank you for reading this email. Goodbye. Quote
The Don Posted August 2, 2007 Posted August 2, 2007 I should ban you for suggesting that they shit on the legacy of Scarface by making a remake. Fuck you. Quote
The Don Posted August 2, 2007 Posted August 2, 2007 Damnit, I just can't say it. Fuck off Ladyhawk. Anyways, I think Scarface was great, it's had such an amazing influence on our culture, and to be honest I can't think of another movie that has had the same influence other than The Fast and The Furious suddenly making your mom's tricked out Honda fucking awesome.

manDude Posted August 3, 2007 Posted August 3, 2007 How about Jean Claude Van Damm as Tony Montana, and Adam Sandler as Manny Ribera Quote
