Just looking at the IMDB page for the new straw dogs, the director has seemingly no pedigree whatsoever, why would he think he should be remaking a sam peckinpah film?

Exactly. I will probably download & watch it as I love the premise of the film but from the trailer it just looks exactly the same film being retold. Love Straw Dogs so much, doubt many would agree but it's my favourite Peckinpah film. Still need to see Bring Me the Head of Alfredo Garcia & Pat Garrett & Billy the Kid though.
I will say though, that bloke who's just done the new planet of the apes (which I fucking loved) had only directed one mildly successful film in the Escapist and before than he was directing Hollyoaks!

I think its different directing a blockbuster though. especially a CGI one.

They should of used CGI to bring a young Susan George into the remake.
