Yes, it’s gone from bad to worse.
The remake of Red Dawn has had all references to Chine removed and replaced with North Korea.
Uh huh.
Making the bad guy China was stupid. Making it North Korea is beyond stupid.
Wasn’t going to bother seeing it before, now I damn sure won’t.
How the heck would North Korea have the resources to invade the United States and be able to do anything? My plausibility meter just went negative.
I seem to recall that in the original, the Chinese were on ‘our’ side (a Powers Boothe scene about “…600 million screaming Chinamen.” “I thought there were a billion screaming Chinamen?” “There WERE.”). In this one they are no longer our allies? If so, why remove the reference? WTF?
And North Korea? Puh-lease…spare me.
I’d watch it if it was a Porno…just sayin’
I also watched “Nailin’ Sarah Palin” it wasn’t very good, but I watched.
The Norks don’t have the logistical wherewhithal to invade the ROK, much less the US.
A Chinese invasion scenario might at least be PLAUSIBLE within a generation or two.
The conspiracy theorist in me wonders if the Administration didn’t lean on their Hollywood buds because they don’t want the ChiComs getting annoyed and dumping some of our debt.
