Death At A Funeral to be remade



Touch and go! Touch and go!

Wow, time for a re-make already? This seems totally unnecessary, the original was brilliant. I don't recall there being very many culturally obscure references--plus, Love Actually has proven that Americans are capable of sucking it up and Googling if they don't understand something.

Death At A Funeral is one of those films that just works. There's nothing particularly out of the ordinary about the style or the setting, and there aren't any fantastic special effects, but the talent of the actors and the way the plot slowly builds up really make it something special. It's one of the funniest movies I've seen, and Americanising it would just cheapen it.
