I wonder how many people on this board enjoyed the idea of Marion Cotillard being stabbed repeatedly after what happened Sunday night :p

The image of Seth Rogen playing any part Cary Grant played is funny.

She doesn´t even look like Renee Zelleweger.

That's exactly what I was thinking when I saw it.
She looks like Kim Novak.

I must say though, these are great photos.

There should be no more remakes of any film unless there is good talent behind it or is an adaptation more along the lines of The Departed. Even then, there should considerably less remakes, sequels, and prequels.

You should try and track down the magazine. It's a great spread. Emile Hirsh and James McAvoy do Strangers on a Train, Jodie Foster does The Birds and Lifeboat is made up of Tang Wei, Josh Brolin, Eva Marie Saint, Ben Foster, Casey Affleck and Julie Christie among others.

One of my favorites is the Keira Knightley/Jennifer Jason Leigh tribute to Rebecca.

Personally, I wouldn't have minded a homoerotically-charged Channing Tatum/James Marsden nod to Rope.

Wow. Those are some phenomenal images. Although, I really don't like the Seth Rogen/North by Northwest one, but damn...I would love to see Strangers on a Train, The Birds and Lifeboat as they envision it...

There is another Hitchcock remake coming. I just can't remember which film. I thought it was The Birds with Naomi Watts, but I may not be remembering correctly.

I feel confident that everyone here would hope that there are no more remakes of Hitchcock's films. Nevertheless, here's a look at some current actors and actresses in Hitchcock film roles through the magic of photshop.:
