I wish they'd give the money to something worthy. I predict box office flop of proportion.
I thought the remake with Charlie Sheen & the olive was alright.

Why not, lots of audiophiles buy "music" for the same reason. I cringe when I hear some of the junk people seem to be listening to. They bring the same discs to gatherings over and over.

I have the same feelings about audiophile music. I purchase music I think I will like, not artists who sound good on my system.

There sure is... Don't seem to have much choice these days? Can't remember the last film I saw that I thought was truly a great film. The classic example is the Star Wars prequels. Lucas was so obsessed with digital technology that he forgot all about the actual film/story/acting!

Isn't that how the original ended? He got a choice of assignment and he chose to be an instructor at Miramar?

The first one was an excellent movie, the Officers Mess, flying scenes, testerone, some flag waving and the veiled "Red" bad guy. You cannot loose with the soundtrack. How do you put out a better product with the same theme? Let it gooooo!
