Didn't work so good with Transformers or GI Joe.
Remaking it with the Chinese is just gay. The Chinese are nowhere near the world power the USSR was perceived to be when they made the original Red Dawn.
Not to mention, the Chinese are not very red anymore. They are fucking capitalists now. Maybe the most capitalistic people in the world.
Chinese invasion? Yeah, right.
So right, Guerilla. The last thing in the world the Chinese want to do is spoil their fuckin gravy train and invade the U.S. They're just making too much money from us right now. Besides, they're too busy buying U.S. Treasuries to the tune of $30-40 billion a month...if they invaded us, they'd never get their money back!
If, on the other hand...they do the unthinkable...I'd be more than happy hop back in the cockpit and kill a few MiGs for the home team.

I always loved the premise:
Army gets past nukes: check
Army gets past largest navy world has ever known: check
Army gets past massive alliance of other countries who would be pissed at a US invasion: check
Army gets past airforce that's twice as large as every other airforce in the world combined: check
Army gets past bunch of teenagers with pea shooters: FAIL

He is - THE CACTUS!
I've got this thing I like to call "Harvey's Cinematic Promotional Inverse Quality Theorem"
It goes: The more money a film has to spend on advertising & promotions is directly and inversely proportional to the quality of the film as a cinematic & literary experience, with the exception of statistical outliers.
There are still good movies coming out all the time. You just never hear about them because they spend their money on making a good film, instead of marketing it.

If I remember correctly, they at least tried to explain a tiny bit of this. NATO had dissolved and Mexico and other nations were in turmoil. Spies inside the USA took out certain areas and nuke strikes hit other parts. Russia came down through Alaska, Cuba and Nicaragua up through Mexico. The planes with the paratroopers were disguised as commercial flights. As for how the USA doesn't notice all the buildup around the borders and many other illogical parts of the movie... WOLVERINES!
the original was insane i was pretty young and i remember this movie giving me nightmares for weeks!!! But for some reason i always had a thing for Russian Chicks !
