It was a rip-off rather than an official remake. Wikipedia sez:
-
I didn't really like Life On Mars very much at all - the creepy insane?/coma?/timetravel? stuff was all good, but the other 25(?) minutes of boring cliched cop show was awful. Ashes To Ashes is just shit.
-
This fan-collated timeline is pretty cool, although it does go into Eps 1 and 2, so you'll only want to read up to 1.6.
-
Quite cool, but it could have gone a bit quicker in the opening stage - it took me so long to figure out the conceit, I would have given up if it wasn't thumbs-recommended.
-
Yayyy! Well done! Gibbage is the better of the two, obviously. Everyone get the free demo!
-
Am I the only one who doesn't like these shows? It's exactly what I don't want from a gaming show - two idiots performing sub-Why Don't You? sketches and favouring bum jokes over copy. At least Bits conveyed some information in between the tits.
-
I got Obama, but I was clicking 'No Opinion' for a lot of it, not understanding a load of American systems, eg health care.
-
Is there an established internet slang term for something that everyone's seen? Like, say, if I posted a thread saying "Hey, look at this 'Zero Punctuation' thing", or whatever. If not, can we come up with one, please?
-
Well, OFN is closest to what I was looking for, although I was hoping someone had come up with an amazing pun term. Thanks, Thumbs!

Re. the original question: Although most sites don't include the track 'Angel' in the credits, wikipedia lists it as an uncredited track, and this site says: I'm still of the opinion that it's so close, it must be a licensed non-vocal version.
-
Digg it, everyone! That's me playing park-zombie/bad Bruce Campbell impersonator. I haven't seen it myself yet due to Flash issues, but I expect I look like a smug cheese advert child for most of it, for which I apologise. Dan (he made the film) is a big fan of both World War Z and that 50 000 Volts special...

British teenager arrested for owning a copy of the "Anarchists' Cookbook"
Ben X replied to Salka's topic in Idle Banter
Obviously, he owned bombs and stuff as well, but those details haven't been released. Either that or he was arrested on a hunch and they're making it sound as if there's lots of great evidence they can't talk about. They'll be shooting people for wearing rucksacks next. -
...up at avclub, which made me actually respect him a little, although he's probably talking complete rubbish. Is avclub one of those sites that everyone reads and doesn't need to be linked to? I agree with every one of their reviews, and I love 'commentary tracks of the damned' and the 'savage love' advice column.

Two parties on Saturday, very fun, up 'til 3am. After 2 hours sleep, get up to scout a location for the tv show I'm working on. Specifically, for a sketch pastiching 28 Days Later, so I was alone on Westminster Bridge with a camera at 6am Sunday morning. Got a couple more hours sleep, then watched Shoot 'Em Up (good fun, but not John Woo) and DeathProof (the full-length European cut, amazing). Went home, watched Face/Off, fell asleep.
-
Bummer. From the adverts, I figured it was either a really canny realignment of the series to fit the Wii audience... or a shameless rip-off of Animal Crossing. I suspected the latter.
-
Games TM is an awful mag anyway. It's a clumsily written, badly edited Edge-wannabe.
-
Good stuff! Glad you retained the classic icon. Any chance Josh Roberts is going to continue his Adventure Architect column? Hope his game hasn't folded...
-
It's DJ Shadow, according to Peter. Any thoughts on the trailer? A lot of people have been unimpressed by it, possibly because it doesn't bring the funny. It's supposed to give a general vibe more than that...
-
I'd like to recommend that everyone in the UK check out the trailer for, and look forward to, The Peter Serafinowicz Show. I worked on it, and it's shaping up to be brilliant.
-
So, assuming this is true (or do we now know it to be true?), is it a good thing? Are we excited? Is one-man-show Jack Black just the guy to usher in a new era of film star video games? Or is Schafer going to lose his Midas touch?
-
Red Riding Hood sounds hot, too. Bit old though.
-
Teen Wolf would kick Ruxpin's ass.
-
I care about Teen Wolf.
-
A word of warning: don't expect it to be too similar to Shaun Of The Dead. The humour's a lot broader. It's definitely worth watching, but I personally prefered Shaun.
