If you were eagerly awaiting release information for the My Sassy Girl remake, your prayers have been answered. Sort of. You can watch Elisha Cuthbert and Jesse Bradford imitate Jun Ji-hyun and Cha Tae-Hyun on August 26th, 2008. The bad news. It releases straight to video. Look for it at your local truck stop by September.

The avalanche of remade Asian films is frustrating. However, this remake might have spurred some people to check out the original. They would’ve fallen in love with it, watched more Asian movies and slowly become interested in K-pop, J-pop and Cantopop. Then, they’d excitedly tell their friends, who’d tell more and more. Eventually, everbody would share in each other’s cultures and we’d have world peace. Oh well. Guess we’ll just have to satisfy ourselves by looking at Elisha Cuthbert’s titties.
