Raging Bull II

RAGING BULL 2?!?!
from: www.quietearth.us
So we have Logan's Run, Halloween, and everything but the kitchen sink getting remade, and now we're getting Raging Bull 2 based on the book. Are people just running out of ideas or what?! This will explore the "before the rage" and "after the rage" of world middleweight boxing champ Jake LaMotta's tumultuous life and times. The after period will probably have Jake in rehab. The screenplay is currently in adaption stages and the case is to be determined.

Say it ain't so? Anyone have anymore information about it? According to an online petition (http://www.thepetitionsite.com/1/no-raging-bull-2) it's being produced by Sunset Pictures.

[Shakes head in shame.]
And they're remaking Logan's Run too? I hadn't heard that. Why?
That's like the sexiest movie ever.

what a strange idea. of course it will suck. who the fuck thinks this is going to have some sort of commercial viability?
raging bull is great because the talent involved is great and they all were at their prime. jake la motta's story is not very interesting anyway. the things scorsese, de niro and schrader chose to explore in the film is what made it worthwile, and those are very general themes regarding the italianamerican male psyche. and of course, the filmmaking itself. unless they have some fucking genius behind it the whole thing will be very boring. if they go some other way and do something completely different then who cares?
