That makes me happy, although I'm going to punch a baby in the face if this movie turns out horrible.

I can't wait, also. The fact that it's being reviewed well is giving me hope.

1) The remake looks like a typical horror/shock fest and not in the campier spirit that the series in known for
2) Joss Whedon and Drew Goddard already did this new movie, better, with Cabin in the Woods and twisted it inside out

I like horror and different type movies and I was not impressed with "Cabin", actually it was a major pile.

I'll keep calling Cabin genius. Those of differing opinion thinking me brain damaged will be far from the first.

Cabin was epic. Anyone that disagrees isn't a true Seahawks fan.

I don't know, maybe I should give "Cabin" a 2nd shot but I bought the video based on reviews and it didn't do much for me. Yeah it had a different plot but based on the reviews I expected different.
Evil Dead remake obviously won't have any resemblance to the accidental cult hit.

The awesomeness of Cabin isn't in the plot for me. It's the send-up/homage/mockery of that particular subgenre (and others -- Japanese Ghost Horror, for example) that makes me appreciate it. In analogy -- The guys pulling the strings and forcing everything to happen are Horror Movie Directors. The 'great old ones' are the audience. They have to -force- these 'real people' to behave in particular stereotypical ways and make them make stupid decisions that no sane person would make otherwise they won't be 'following the script' and the ever-powerful audience won't accept it. It's kind of the horror industry saying, 'God, we make stupid movies' while saying, 'Because the paying audience demands it'.
