Ugh. I am probably the only person on the boards that didn't like the original. I have no interest in the remake. Still, to the point of the thread, China would be the more logical antagonist, as North Korea has positively zero ability to project power.

You assume too much. I thought the original was one of the stupidest movies I had ever seen. It did lead to one great story, though. I was at a wargaming convention when the subject came up. One of the people there, a former Soviet officer who had defected to the US, said that one of their greatest fears during the Cold War was to be ordered to invade America.

"We knew for a fact that every American owned a gun, and knew how to use it."

Are you serious? We both made US and China to be friendly from the outside. But in the inside, we're still spying each other with cloak and dagger.
