>The year is 2020, and hell is literally on Earth. Ching Dai, sick of relying on screw-ups like Lo Pan to do his bidding, has broken the barriers between Earth and the infinite hells, and declared himself ruler of all. Sixty-year-old Jack Burton is alone in a tiny corner of Florida with only his broken radio to talk to, until one day it manages to pick up a message. Someone is out there in the hellscape, and they know a way to stop Ching Dai.

Hell yes. Why the original is being remade is beyond me, but this looks fantastic.

Wait, what?
I remember there being talks years ago about remaking The Last Dragon, but remaking Big Troulble in Little China is news to me.
STANDING

Yet another "Dwayne Johnson Ruining Eveything" remake.
>>93207408

This is actually fucking great. The concept of an immensely powerful god just getting tired of minions and taking matters into their own hands is something that probably needs to be done more often.
Why don't they just make this into a movie
Instead of an unnecessary reboot that probably doesn't even realize that Jack was not the hero of the movie, just the main character

Time, money, studio heads, etc
We need the logan money

Well they say that in the article:
>Via Screen Rant, it was just announced that BOOM! Studios is taking a page out of the Wolverine playbook with upcoming comic series Big Trouble in Little China: Old Man Jack, set to tell the tale of Jack Burton’s final ride in the Pork-Chop Express!
>Written by John Carpenter and Anthony Burch (Borderlands 2), the four-issue series will be kicking off in September.
>>93207539
But they're already making a reboot that will without a doubt cost more than anything Carpenter will do

>Anthony "Cuckold" Burch
DROPPED
>>93207648
>and Anthony Burch
I see there are no folks from /v/ here, otherwise this would have been christened a comic for cucks in an instant.
>>93207744
oh, nevermind.
>>93207070
Well, that's big news. Not crazy hyped for the setting, but damn it IS big.

For fuck's sake
Burch is gonna ruin it, Carpenter is very progressive and will probably have Burch take the lead since he's younger than he is. This is gonna be another IIF where the big named person is on the cover just to sell books because his name is on it.

God fucking dammit.
