    yes, he definitely did.

    however, he didn't advertise his coppola relations to the public, prefering people to love him for his hotness instead of his family. :eek:

    I would give up watching movies if I wasn't obsessed with them.

    Hahah.

    No, I wouldn't.

    Did anyone see him as Tiny Elvis? with all honesty, that was his best work.

    I have always wanted somebody to make a high budget television series that copies the story almost literally, including all of the Chief's hallucinations.

    I loved the movie though...I quite like everything Milos Forman has done.

    book was of course much better but i think it was probably one of the few books-turned-movies where i enjoyed both versions. nicholson played mcmurphy well. i still hate him.

    I really like that movie. I actually have it in our DVD collection.

    I think a remake would be great, quite interesting and definitely worth watching. With the way films are today, it would more than likely be even better than the classic one, even though I truly am a fan of Jack Nicholson. I like Nicholas Cage a lot too though, so I think he would be a pretty good pick for the leading role.

    Then again, sometimes you just shouldn't mess with a classic. ;)

    i don't mind remakes. it's not like the previous version ceases to exist.

    I think we should have a remake, but use HF members as cast of characters. I'll be Nurse Ratchet. :cool:

    I actually watched the movie for the first time last night. I liked, but I was wanting more. The main focus of the book wasn't shown I thought. The patients really seemed fucking loony. Ken Kesey tried to show in the book that they weren't crazy, society was just telling them so.

    And I agree with Face Eater, I would love to see a movie from Big Chiefs perspective, including all the hallucinations and memories of home.

    Instead of re-making a good movie,maybe they should re-release the original to in the cinema,that way people can see it on the big screen.I'm not referring to any movie in particular.--And as far as I'm concerned Hollywood has basically forgotten how to make good films.Or maybe they just no longer have many talented people in the show-business.I know this is my opinion but most modern day tv shows and movies are pure rubbish.
