I've hated the idea of this remake ever since I first heard it mentioned. I feared it would be awful and the trailers have convinced me that it is beyond awful. Nobody can play that role but Peter Sellers. Same for Herbert Lom's role and Burt Kwouk.
I can only hope that this and ever other ill-conceived sequel bombs horifically and puts and end to this trend. Doesn't anyone in Hollywood have an original idea anymore?
