    First Footage of Total Recall Remake

    What's Taiwanese for "I liked it better when Verhoeven and Schwarzenegger did it twenty-two years?"

    The Film Stage has our first look at the Total Recall remake and Len Wiseman and Colin Farrell retreading the same territory. Only not on Mars. Because who would want to be faithful to the Phillip K. Dick short-story We Can Remember It For You Wholesale?

    What's that? The 1990 film already covered that material? That begs the question, why did you even bother remaking Total Recall to begin with if you thought it was a good idea to nuke a vital plot component? To be fair, this isn't even a complete trailer; just 30 seconds taken from, what looks like, a Taiwan trailer. But you'll notice "COMICON" stamped on top. Your guess is as good as mine to the actual source here.

    Regardless, to quote Buddy Rich; this guy... this is not my kind of guy....

    I think it looks really cool and has a chance to be better than the other adaption given the lead can actually act and it wont be a splatter-house type of deal with the action, looking forward to this.
