That poster is the first I'd heard of that remake. I'm going to have to seek it out now. It never got an official American release. It played at a couple film festivals and I think that’s about it, I never saw it on blu-ray or anything. I watched it via....extralegal means, it’s pretty good. It’s not the greatest movie but it’s different enough to make it worth a watch knowing you aren’t seeing a shot for shot remake.

I heard about it in pre-production, but I never sought out whether it was made or not until today. Haven't seen it but it has Ken Watanabe as Eastwood, so that's pretty great.

Didn't know the Watanabe version existed. Just bought it. I'll report back.

Battle of the Decades
The Sweet 16
The Electrifying Eighties
Team Dooms and Sno The 1980's as described by Wikipedia: The 1980's was a decade of the Gregorian calendar that began on January 1, 1980, and ended on December 31, 1989. The decade saw major socioeconomic change due to advances in technology and a worldwide move away from planned economies and towards laissez-faire capitalism. As economic deconstruction increased in the developed world, multiple multinational corporations associated with the manufacturing industry relocated into Thailand, Mexico, South Korea, Taiwan, and China. Japan and West Germany saw large economic growth during this decade. The AIDS epidemic became recognized in the 1980's and has since killed an estimated 39 million people (as of 2013). Global warming became well known to the scientific and political community in the 1980's. The United Kingdom and the United States moved closer to supply-side economic policies beginning a trend towards global instability of international trade that would pick up more steam in the following decade as the fall of the USSR made right wing economic policy more powerful. The final decade of the Cold War opened with the US-Soviet confrontation continuing largely without any interruption. Superpower tensions escalated rapidly as President Reagan scrapped the policy of détente and adopted a new, much more aggressive stance on the Soviet Union. The world came perilously close to nuclear war for the first time since the Cuban Missile Crisis 20 years earlier, but the second half of the decade saw a dramatic easing of superpower tensions and ultimately the total collapse of Soviet communism. Raging Bull Selected by: Dooms and Snoborder Released: 1980 Directed By: Martin Scorsese Who Directed: 6 Films in the 1980'sA Decade in Music:Thoughts from the Team:Probably the movie, at least to me, that truly elevated both Martin Scorsese and Robert DeNiro into the pantheon of cinema. They each had classics under their belt but Raging Bull cemented their statuses as titans. Raging Bull is a movie that certainly makes you 'earn' it as you watch but at the end you'll see that there are few if any films like it. - Doomsday Visual Enhancements:
What Happened... in the 1980's:On January 28th, 1985, The R&B single written by Michael Jackson and Lionel Richie called "We Are The World" is recorded by more than 45 American singers; it will go on to raise $75 million to feed people in Africa. Versus
The Terminator Selected by: Dooms and Snoborder Released: 1984 Directed By: James Cameron Who Directed: 4 Films in the 1980'sA Decade in Music:
Thoughts from the Team: One of the action staples of the 80s, this B sc-fi movie helped launch some of the biggest names in cinema. This movie and franchise have influenced so much that came after and the fact that we're still going back to this franchise almost 40 years later proves that it's much more than just a simple action film. - Doomsday Visual Enhancements:What Happened... in the 1980's:On December 8th, 1980, Singer John Lennon is assassinated by a deranged gunman in front of his New York City apartment. My Vote: Raging Bull
