Default Oldboy movies

There are actually 3 version of this movie, I have not seen any of them!

Oldboy (2003) -http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2HkjrJ6IK5E

Bollywood was first to remake Old Boy
Zinda (2006) -http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pmyi4Ti2owg

Oldboy (2013)-http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vd20pywMXuY


I am actually thinking of watch Bollywood one first before US remake, then US remake won't seem so bad compared to the original

Love the 2003 version, one of the best films I've seen. Don't want to see either remake really.

I love Oldboy but I'll never see the remakes, they can't possibly be a patch on the original.

I don't need to see them, watching the trailer for the US remake was painful enough.

RoboCop looks crap, the original wasn't exactly a masterpiece but it was a fun bit of fluff. The remake looks soul-less.

big fan of oldboy since i happened to watch it late at night once on tv. really good film
watched the remake the other day god almighty i knew it would be a bad idea espeically as it has some of the worst reviews ever. they really butcherd it. spike lee you would expect better but nope its not even like a spike lee movie. its watchable but not good. stick to the original its class.

as for bollywood i would rather saw my dik of with a rusty penknife than watch that.

i seen the new Oldboy and i really liked it and no i havent seen the original but i might someday. if/when i do im gonna judge it on its own merit and not be some whiny bitch ass fanboy about it. there is so many people that shat on the remake when it was first mentioned and many still do without even seeing it. now if you did see it and didnt like it fair enough. im not one of those people that say a remake/sequel/prequel ruin the one before it if i really enjoyed the original. i find that laughable sometimes. i like the first two Godfathers but not the 3rd and i still enjoy the first two just as much as ever.
