grr yet another film to be ruined by a re-make

Police academy was a funny film tbh but re-makes are NEVER good

Anyone else see S.W.A.T. last night? It was a surprisingly good action film

Sounds like "Driven" with Stallone.

Got it on dvd, not bad is it. Hardly the greatest film in the world but I enjoyed it for what it was.

Are you sure it doesn't sound more like Days of Thunder?

Cocky upstart driver is paired with old-school veteran crew-chief Harry Hogge (Robert Duvall). Both battle for control while chasing the same goal and eventually find respect for each other. Conflict with competitor driver Rowdy Burns (Mike Rooker) leads to a fateful crash that puts Trickle in a position to meet the standard Love Interest - Neurosurgeon Nicole Kidman. Neurosurgeon falls for tough but tender driver. Trickle then makes buds with Burns. Finally, Trickle makes it to the big race in Daytona to face arch-rival Russ Wheeler.

Ahh, it's all coming back to me.

"50 laps my way, 50 laps his way"

Haha, with a name like trading paint they could even drop in a reference to the original (as this clearly is nothing more than a re-make)
"No, no, he didn't slam you, he didn't bump you, he didn't nudge you... he *rubbed* you. And rubbin, son, is racin'."

hehe, he'll probably even be called something like Joel in the new one.
