The Hollywood Reporter announces that AMBI Pictures is going to remake Christopher Nolan's 2000 thriller Memento. AMBI apparently recently acquired the library of Exclusive Media Group, which includes Memento, and also Cruel Intentions, Donnie Darko, and Sliding Doors, among others. Why? Seriously, of all the films out there to do a remake of, Memento?! The head of AMBI released the following statement:
“Memento is a masterpiece that leaves audiences guessing not just throughout the film, but long after as well, which is a testament to its daring approach. We intend to stay true to Christopher Nolan’s vision and deliver a memorable movie that is every bit as edgy, iconic and award-worthy as the original. It’s a big responsibility to deliver something that lives up to the mastery of the original, but we are extremely excited and motivated to bring this puzzle back to life and back into the minds of moviegoers.”
I would sooner watch Gus Van Sant's shot-for-shot Psycho remake on a loop!
