#Blog - Random NES oddities


Found a copy of Total Recall on the NES, boxed and complete with manual, at the local flea market.

AND I even got it for free!

All in all, a good day.

Total Ripoff (Total Recall Comparison - 1990 vs 2012)

My exact thoughts on all this Total Recall-stuff put on this shiny video by Cinestir on youtube.

Also, damn! I remember the producers/director talking about why this wasn't on Mars. ("oh, it's a brand new take on Philip K Dick's novel" "we wanted to make something new and different" etc.) But in the end they just remade the same exact movie, to the spot-on details. Only not on Mars.
Also I find this "remake" to follow way too closely Scharzy & Verhoeven's movie than the original "We Can Remember It for You Wholesale" novel...

Anyway, check this out:

#BestOf Total Recall - All the Breaking Glass in Total Recall

So that Total Recall remake is still happening?


This reboot of the Schwarzy classic is set to draw a lot more from Philip K. Dick's original novel We Can Remember It for You Wholesale.
This new film is being directed by Len Wiseman from whom we got the Underworld series as well as Live Free or Die Hard (noooooo!!!) and is set for a August 3 release date.

Anyways, enough about the future!
Let's turn our eyes to the past for an epic compilation featuring lots of breaking glass from the original Total Recall...enjoy!
