The planned remake of a 1987 cult classic called “They Live” by John Carpenter will not have the famed sunglasses. Roddy “Rowdy” Piper who starred as a drifter in this classic found nifty sunglasses which allowed him to see aliens who are living amongst humans and giving messages to humanity.
The producer, Eric Newman, said that the sunglasses might not even be in the remake. Newman said that the likelihood of a homeless man being able to convince someone to wear his glasses is too farfetched, so he has enlisted the help of D.B. Weiss to explore other ideas. D.B. Weiss is the writer of the HBO mini-series called “Game of Thrones.” Some loyalists are crying foul about scrapping the sunglasses off the film. What’s your take in this latest remake news?
