Oh, for goodness' sakes...I had at least thought it might be respectful to the original in some way, but all my hopes for this film have been effectively dashed. Thanks for sharing this. I doubt I'll be wasting my money to see this one now.
The original is one of my all-time favorite films, and when I heard about the remake, I was quite appalled, but this...I'm going to shut up.

What is the big deal? The original will always be around!
Of course, that is one tired argument I keep hearing from remake lovers. While it is true in principle, I also tend to think of that as an oversimplification as well.
In facing some facts, not everyone is as movie savvy as we would like to think. If this movie turns out to be terrible (and reading this thing, it sure looks like it!), any time the name “The Day the Earth Stood Stillâ€

I think they should hand over the script overseas to Hayao Miyazaki. He makes enviromentalist stuff work in his movies, and he's a genius so surely you could give him a copy of the script over a weekend and have him spruce it up. No prob.

how about leave it the f* alone? Not everything needs a remake. PERIOD. Buy some of those screw shaped lightbulbs(which cause you to use more energy via less heat energy) and quit going to the remake barrel.
