OMFG

OK, remakes are of course commonplace in film, and some of them seem a bit ill-considered. Liev Shreiber is The Manchurian Candidate, I'll buy that. Frank Oz remakes The Stepford Wives, a little odd. But... Keanu Reaves is John Constantine??? What is this, an attempt to make every Alan Moore adaptation worse than the last?

I doubt Moore gets any money from this. Constantine's creation was in a work-for-hire book, and before there was any precedent for "rectroactive creator credit".
