I’ll keep this brief but I knew that a remake of Oldboy was going to happen. What I didn’t expect were the two least likely people to direct or star in the film. Those being Stephen Spielberg and Will Smith respectively.

Only two and a half more months!
Forgive me for not shutting up about politics for the last couple of posts, but honestly what do you expect after something so monumental? Now let’s move on.
