Sorry but Falling Down didn't blow my mind when I saw it as a teen and I don't think a remake would blow my mind now. What blows my mind are problems like Shrek 4 being made (do we really need another one), every 80's movie you can think of is getting the REBOOT, and how the heck is Lindsay Lohan still able to get an acting job these days?

They wouldn't make the movie today, because, frankly, it was awful.
Brilliant analysis, though. Strangely enough today, the word controversial seems to mean stupid and pointless.

I don't think they would make this movie today. Not because it's terribly controversial, but because it doesn't have a bunch of explosions and the main character screaming "NO!!!!!!!!" in extreme closeup. Movies like this really don't get the big studio treatment anymore.

i just don't get the point of this article….that michael douglas said something and you want to refute it? why not discuss movies they actually might not make today, or movies that were really controversial years ago but are tame by today's standards?

Or better yet, Kieffer Sutherland.

If The Machinist isn't all that clever then I'm stupider than I thought because that film was like water off a ducks back to me :P

Good article though I have seen this on many 'Special Editions' cropping up lately.

And if you did find one and shot it up, you'd have People for the Ethical Treatment of Telephone Booths riding your ass and boycotting the film.

Which would increase ticket sales….

…anyone know where we can a telephone booth??

Well, he's right – no one COULD make that movie today. Just try to find a phone booth anywhere.
