I can see this being remade with Brad Pitt and making a mint.

No he shouldn't. Brad Pitt isn't half as cool as James Coburn was.

That's true, and by now, Brad Pitt is too old for the part. Coburn was 38 when Our Man Flint was made; Brad Pitt is 48 now.

It would be nice to see a continuation of the franchise, but unfortunately, our society is much too sick and too far gone compared to how it was in the 1960s for that to be possible.

Huh? What´s that supposed to mean?

The movies of today leave nothing to the imagination, and the remakes are generally shallow, in comparison to the original.

Years ago I thought this too.

Now I'm thinking Justin Timberlake could be funny.
