Remake Alert! THE BUTTERFLY EFFECT... Wait, What?!

Movie by Joey Paur

Ok, even though I hate it when Hollywood remakes older movies, I can understand why they remake most of them. A lot of them are classic older films that people grew up with and enjoyed. What I don't understand is why anyone in the right mind would want to remake Ashton Kutcher's 2004 piece of shit The Butterfly Effect. That may seem like some kind of internet April Fools joke, but I assure you, it's not. 

To make things a little more silly is the fact that the writer and director of the original film, Eric Bress, is writing the remake, so it's not like the script is going to be any better. There's no director attached yet, but I assume he wants to direct it as well.

The first film also starred Amy Smart, and followed a character "who had the ability to travel back in time and change the present by changing what he had done in his past — but found that changing several childhood traumas created unintended consequences."

This has got to be one of the dumbest ideas for a remake so far. Why would anyone throw their money away on this? Do any of you have the slightest bit of excitement that this movie is happening?
