I would eat a bottle of prescription pills, drink a bottle of vodka, slice my wrists and then hang myself if she were ever nominated for an Academy Award.
I'm seeing it for Chad Michael Murray. Paris getting killed is just an added bonus... and I've never seen the original so I have nothing to compare it to.
I dunno...living wax figures trying to kill people...sounds pretty damn creepy. But I've always been scared of that kind of thing. Same for killer dolls.
I'm not saying Hilton can act or sing, or even design jewelry. From what I've seen so far, her acting and singing skills predictably leave a lot to be desired.
I'm not saying she has a chance at EVER being nominated for any sort of prestigious award, but I don't understand why people feel the need to constantly bashing someone for trying to do new things. She obviously doesn't need the money, so I applaud her for trying new things. She's obviously got to be good at SOMETHING, so hopefully she'll find what she's good at. But I just hate when people feel the need to be so nasty and over dramatic about her coming out with a CD and and a movie. Don't deem someone talentless before you've seen them really do something worth while.
And before I get rocks thrown at me - I'm not saying she's talented - I really don't think she is - but I wouldn't so quickly dismiss someone just because they're constantly in the public spotlight and seem to have done nothing worthwhile.

I applaud the fact that she is venturing out into so many endeavors, we all would do the same given the opportunity.
And she's not doing Hamlet, she's in a re-make of a horror flick in which she does a strip-tease. From what I have heard of her first single from her album, I like it, very catchy and fun sounding. On her TV show she is herself. All of these projects seem to be well within her range.
Maybe she will surprise the naysayers and be fabulous. That would be the greatest revenge of all for her wouldn't it?

Coincidentally, the director of the original, Andre DeToth, could only "imagine it in 3-D" as well. He had one eye, and therefore had no depth perception!
As for the remake, I've already seen the scene of Paris dancing around in her undies twice on TV. I feel no need to see the rest of the movie.
I personally can't wait to see this movie. The trailer terrifies me. I am trying not to get too excited after the mahoosive disappointment of The Amityville Horror, but this will be better. It can't be any worse.
Nothing precious, plain to see, don't make a fuss over me. Not loud, not soft, but somewhere inbetween. Say sorry, just let it be the word you mean.
Apparently there are Tshirts to promote this that say "See Paris Die," which at first disturbed her, but then her response became "Whatever it takes to get people to come see the movie. I do have the best death scene in the whole film, after all." - I'm frightened that I enjoyed that comment of hers. She's sarting to talk like an actress.:) (I read this as some blurb in the RedEye a few days ago)
I just read a review online, and the critic gave it ***1/2 our of ****.
I quote a section of the review:
"Many potential audience members will probably be going to see the major acting debut of Paris Hilton (2003's "The Cat in the Hat") and, more specifically, her much-publicized death scene. For this, they will not be disappointed; her murder is the most lingering and gruesome of the bunch. What these same Paris haters may be disappointed to find, however, is a performance that isn't bad at all. Hilton meshes well with her castmates without drawing much attention to herself, and naturalistically plays a character that rarely even seems like her glitzy real-life persona. She's fun to watch onscreen, and is a good sport at slyly poking fun at herself, as in a moment involving a pile of cell phones that don't work.
"House of Wax" is the first unequivocally good—and often downright great—popcorn entertainment of the still-early summer movie season, and the most satisfying release from Robert Zemeckis' Dark Castle horror label, to date. Scary, scream-and-squirm-inducing, and legitimately suspenseful, "House of Wax" proves that the slasher movie, a genre that has never gotten the respect it deserves, is alive and well. As with 1996's "Scream" before it, it simply takes a masterful one to reinvigorate the genre and show how it can be done right. Stuffy, narrow-minded critics be damned, "House of Wax" is one of the most well-made and stylistically accomplished films of the year."
There is a store here in LA called Kitson and they have shirts that are selling like hotcakes that say "Come see Paris die on May 6th" Her mom was not too happy about these shirts and said she will beat anyone down she see's wearing one! LOL
It started with a sipmle idea, collecting one paper clip for every life lost, the feelings that connect us...are greater than those that divide us!
