Not sure if this rumor — that Michael Bay’s Platinum Dunes production company is following up its reboots of Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Friday the 13th, and Nightmare on Elm Street with a remake of Rosemary’s Baby — is true, but if it is, it can only mean that Satan really did father a child, and that his initials are M.B. Can we at least get him to promise not to wink at the original by casting Mia Farrow in the Ruth Gordon role?

How the hell can Michael Bay seriously call himself a film maker?? Except for PEARL HARBOR (only because it’s based on history), none of his films have ever told any real story. The man is nothing more than a demolitions expert, in my opinion.
Does this mean if the remake happens that the pram will blow up, followed by the nursery, the apartment and then the building? AWESOME!
That’s the thing Mr. Friedmann…I don’t really think that Michael Bay has any illusions that he’s a real “filmmaker” (whatever that means) and nothing more than a guy who knows how to blow stuff up really well (witness his recent “awesome” commercial).
Sorry, but I’m kind of over the whole “let’s hate on Michael Bay” thing. What can I say? I really enjoyed “Transformers”. It was complete trash, but it was fun.
I’m also sort of over the whole “let’s hate on remakes” thing. Do we need remakes to classic films like Rosemary’s Baby? No, of course we don’t NEED them. Do they personally offend me? Not really. If anything, it can prop up the original and make people appreciate how good it was or make a younger generation that’s never heard of the older film check it out for themselves (which is never a bad thing).
…all that being said, I WILL admit that I did a minor spit take when I heard they were thinking of remaking “Singin’ in the Rain”. I mean, that remake (just like most remakes) wouldn’t have been the end of the world, but, damn Hollywood! You can do better than that!
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ. Hollywood writers went on strike for over 3 months and we still can’t get any new material? What’s next…the new Casablanca starring Jessica Alba and Josh Harnett? The African Queen with Colin Farrell and Scarlett Johannsen? MAKE IT STOP!!!!!
KateDFW, I think I just fell in love with you! Buy yourself a drink (or seven) on me!
If they ever, ever, ever remake CASABLANCA (my favorite black and white classic of all time!), I swear I’ll take hostages!
Please dear God NO!! Bay is a master and testosterone driven films where things blow up. Period. He should leave Rosemary’s Baby well enough alone and focus on making another loud, brainless summer flick based on a toy. GoBots: The Movie, anyone?
Well THAT’S a freakin’ buzzkill.
What does it take to get someone deported? Let’s get on that. Michael Bay can go destroy things somewhere else.
No no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no
I don’t know what’s worse: an actualy remake of Rosemary’s Baby or that that hack is involved. Bay is not a filmmaker. He just blows stuff up for a living.
Note to Hollywood: Please make him stop! Please, please, please! Pretty please with sugar on it!
I only liked Transformers. Stick to that Bay.

NOOOOO! Please leave this film alone!
It’s one of my favourites!
Thanks Eric, I will send you my bar bill tomorrow!
Hey, don’t mock Michael Bay. For a director I must say that he’s not bad looking. Still I can’t see Rosemary’s Baby being remade. The Omen remake was not bad but not good either. He should leave it be.
Hey Snarf, if he does remake Rosemary’s Baby, I think that he should get his awesome pussycat to take on the Satan worshipers.
Hands off Michael Bay! Someone stop this man. Now.
Will he keep the birthday the same as my little sisters birthday? That always cracked me up.
The movie stands very well on it’s own, I don’t know where a suitable spot in the plot would be to add an explosion or to have a vapid, empty female.
i have nothing against Michael Bay, I do wish Hollywood would leave the ‘classics’ alone and let us enjoy them as they were…I mean, we all NEEDED a Brady Bunch movie, right? Beverly Hillbillies, Starsky and Hutch, those were definitely needed to be remade, right? (I know they were tv shows, but you get my point)…Stay away from old material, good OR bad and make something new and interesting…rehashing is tiresome…
Michael Bey? Micheal “Awesome” Bey? Tell that boy to sit back and enjoy TMC on his new Verizon FIOS and not be so anxious to make old movies all freakin’ new. I propose, instead, you make your own movie without looking at anyone else’s movie, play, comic book or other stuff…

12-21-2012, people. This is only the next sign.
No matter how many times Hollywood tries to wreck classic cinema, the original still stands. Booooo to remakes!
HAVING HEARD THAT OTHER NOTED AUTEUR,BRETT RATNER,PLANNED ON A REMAKE OF “STRAW DOGS” AND I NOW THIS, I CAN’T HELP BUT WONDER IF SOME HACK OF THE FUTURE MIGHT DECIDE TO REMAKE ONE OF THEIR OPUSES AND HOW THEY WOULD REACT–PROBABLY THEY WOULDN’T CARE AS LONG AS THE CHECK CLEARED…

NOOO!!! PLEASE SOMEONE STOP THE MAN!!
This is ludicrous. Rosemary’s Baby is without a doubt one of THE GREATEST horror films of all time. AND IT’S ALSO A POLANSKI FILM!!! That is like remaking Mean Streets or The Conversation.
If this gets a greenlight then we, as movie lovers, must take action. Start a petition or a mass-letter campaign threatening boycott. This is horrifying news. We must band together!
i’ve been in love with this movie from the time i’ve seen it. i’m curious to see a remake, but i know it will NEVER stand up to roman polanski’s version. mia farrow was fantastic! ruth…john…all of them. it fit. again, while curious, i see no need to fix what isn’t broken.
i think its good hes remaking it. it probly wont be as good but its different. if it sux we wont watch it!
