Song Seung Heon and Matsushima Nanako in "Ghost" teaser

[rikayla.livejournal.com]

Early last week, a teaser was released for Paramount’s upcoming Asian remake of Ghost. The new footage clarifies an important fact about the remake that has largely slipped under the radar since the project was first announced back in May—that Nanako Matsushima will actually be playing the ghost role originally played by the late Patrick Swayze and Korean actor Seung-heon Song‘s character will be more in line with the Demi Moore part. Also, a recently released production still shows veteran actress Kirin Kiki taking over the psychic medium character originally portrayed by Whoopi Goldberg.

Plot: One day, a company manager named Nanami (Matsushima) meets and falls in love with Joon-ho (Song), who’s staying in Japan to study ceramic art. However, when the two begin their life together, Nanami is involved in a tragic incident and loses her life. Refusing to allow her soul to go to heaven, Nanami instead chooses to remain at the side of Joon-ho.

“Ghost: Mo Ichido Daishimetai” will be released in Japan on November 13, 2010.

I thought I would like this but this remake or loosely based whatever looks kinda cheesy eeew.
Things are going bad in the writing department when other countries are remaking american 2 decade old movies~ sad sad state of affairs.

lol lets get real, the original is CHEESE personified

ia that this remake looks to be probably even more saccharine and w/o even the excuse of being made in the 90's, but hey if they're just following the material they're working from what can you do. (besides not make the film, which is too late :C)

What. Why did they have to change the gender roles? D;

I hope there's a pottery scene. ;D lol

I think I'll watch this but I'll probably cry from the fail. (Like when America fails in making remakes)
