Stop Hollywood before they do another remake.


......In 1975 the first "Rollerball" was released. It was the depiction of a possible dystopian future in which a few corporations owned everything and individualism was strongly discouraged. The corporate world government used rollerball as a distraction for the masses and as a way to get their anti individualality massage across much as the ancient Romans used the gladiatorial games. This remake took those ideas and turned them into roller derby on the fried chicken circuit.....The same thing happened to the cult classic "Death Race 2000". It was remade from a social satire to a cool cars and guns prison movie. Some one should stop Hollywood before they kill another seventies classic.
