John Milius' 1984 actioner "Red Dawn" and Paul Verhoeven's classic 1987 sci-fi feature "Robocop" might be remade says The Hollywood Reporter.

At a press event in Cannes on Saturday, MGM toppers Harry Sloan and Mary Parent confirmed that both features are being looked at as serious candidates for remakes.

The original "Red Dawn" posited a slight different end to the Cold War with Russia and Cuba invading the US, and followed a group of guerilla resistance fighters (Patrick Swayze, Charlie Sheen, Lea Thompson, Powers Boothe) in a small Colorado town. It was the first film released to be rated PG-13, and at one time held the record for being the most violent film ever made.

imajući u vidu da su rusi zlikovci i u upcumming blockbusteru o indijani džonsu, zanima me šta o svemu ovome kažu analitičari i osobe bliske dobro obaveštenim izvorima...

Appearing at a news conference in Cannes, where his latest movie, Vicky Cristina Barcelona, had its world premiere over the weekend, Woody Allen was asked by an enthusiastic fan/reporter from Uzbekistan when he might make a film in Russia or Central Asia. To the reporter's chagrin, Allen suggested that he was unlikely ever to do so. A few years ago, he said, he took his family for what was planned as a five-day holiday in Leningrad. "I was there for about two hours and I went to the travel agency in the hotel and I said, 'Get me the first reservation out of here, I don't care where it goes.'" He said that he has been told that things had changed since then, but "it would take a lot to get me back. I don't travel well."

Ruski komunisti kivni na Indijanu Džonsa
Članovi Komunističke partije u Sank Peterburgu osudili su novi film o Indijani Džonsu kao grubu antisovjetsku propagandu koja iskrivljuje istoriju i zatražili zabranu prikazivanja novog filma Stivena Spilberga.

U filmu "Indijana Džons i kraljevstvo kristalne lobanje" Harison Ford kao neustrašivi arheolog, 1957. godine utrkuje se sa zlom agenticom KGB-a koju igra Kejt Blanšet, ko će pre pronaći kristalnu lobanju koja poseduje mistične moći.

"Ono što ljuti jeste što smo s Amerikom porazili Hitlera, i što smo saosećali sa njom kad ih je udario Bin Laden. A oni sada plaše decu komunistima. Ti ljudi nemaju srama", izjavio je Viktor Perov iz sanktpeterbuškog ogranka KP.

U.S. AND SOVIET FILM MAKERS DEBATE STEREOTYPES

By ALJEAN HARMETZ,
SPECIAL TO THE NEW YORK TIMES
Published: March 25, 1987

LEAD: The film clips traded insults.



In ''Invasion, U.S.A.'' (1984), Russian soldiers watch a little girl decorate a Christmas tree, and then blow up the child, her family, and her house. In ''Silver Dust'' (1953), former Nazi scientists working for the United States create a radioactive powder to poison Russians.

As part of an unofficial and self-styled entertainment summit between Hollywood and Soviet film makers, Soviet and American writers and directors on Monday examined how they portray each other. The seminar, held at the American Film Institute, was part of a weeklong visit by a delegation of nine Soviet film makers headed by Elem Klimov, a director who now leads the major Soviet film union.

For the most part, the occasion was one for expressions of good will. Differences in approach to film making - Government control in the Soviet Union, marketplace control in the United States - were not addressed at this meeting, having been covered at previous sessions. Stereotypical

The Russians torture a Christlike Sylvester Stallone in ''Rambo'' and execute a teacher and his students in ''Red Dawn.'' A K.G.B. officer threatens Mikhail Baryshnikov and Gregory Hines in ''White Nights.''

The Soviet movies excerpted were less violent but equally stereotyped. In ''Solo Voyage,'' which has been called the Soviet ''Rambo,'' the leaders of the American military-industrial complex play golf while reaching the conclusion that arms control would mean financial losses; they decide to attack the United States with a cruise missile and blame it on a Soviet submarine. In the movie ''We Accuse,'' the real purpose of Francis Gary Powers's flight over the Soviet Union in a U-2 is to provoke a crisis in Russian-American relations. As an actor playing Allen Dulles in that movie says: ''Presidents change. The C.I.A. remains.''

In general, the American participants in the meeting described themselves as embarrassed by the Hollywood film clips. ''We outstereotyped you,'' Franklin Schaffner, the director of ''Patton,'' said to the Soviet delegation.

Norman Jewison, who attempted to portray the humanness of both sides in his 1966 film ''The Russians Are Coming, the Russians Are Coming,'' said he found it ''very disturbing to see so many films reflecting a lack of tolerance.'' 'No Wicked Intention'

Viktor Dyomin, a Soviet film critic, said the Russians in ''The Russians Are Coming, the Russians Are Coming'' were ''not at all Russian'' but were acceptable ''because there was no wicked intention.'' He added that he didn't know ''whether to be happy or to weep'' because ''Solo Voyage'' was selling briskly throughout the world on video cassettes.

The film clips spanned a period of 40 years, with attitudes depending on world events when the films were made. In Ernst Lubitsch's ''Ninotchka'' (1939), three Communists are seduced by the soft, materialistic life in Paris. In ''North Star'' (1943), our admirable Russian allies refuse to allow the Nazis to defeat them. The valiant villagers declare: ''We will make this the last war. We will make a free world for all people.'' In ''Moscow on the Hudson'' (1984), a Russian character played by Robin Williams defects after he is asked by the K.G.B. to spy on his comrades.

Although Fay Kanin, a writer and a former president of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, was applauded when she suggested that the industry stop making so many militaristic and violent movies, realism prevailed over optimism.

Stephen Deutsch, the producer of ''Russkies,'' which will be released next summer, was a member of the audience. He said: ''A Soviet sailor is the hero. It was very difficult to get the movie done. Do people really want to see a Russian in a positive role? The Russians live under the tyranny of their propagandistic system and Klimov is beginning to break it down. We live under the tyranny of our economic system, and nothing is going to break it down.'' Positive Climate Needed

Another observer, Kenneth Locker, president of Armand Hammer Productions, is developing a feature film on the Chernobyl nuclear accident, to be co-produced with the Russians. He said, ''The best you can do is create a climate where you can create a positive picture of a Russian.''

The difficulties involved in attempting to cut down on stereotypes were described by Sergei Mikaelyan, whose ''Flight 222'' (1986) centered around a Soviet athlete who defects in the United States and his athlete wife who wishes to return home.

''Some of you might call it an anti-American movie,'' Mr. Mikaelyan said, adding that Soviet authorities called it ''anti-Soviet'' because ''New York was too beautiful'' and ''no one could voluntarily defect; they had to be manipulated into it by the C.I.A.'' Mr. Mikaelyan said he was told, ''The worst thing about your script is it could be a co-production.''

Although he said he fought and won on 62 of the 68 changes the authorities asked for, Mr. Mikaelyan said he had to mute the fact that his athlete chose to defect because of ''his understanding of human rights.'' The director also felt he couldn't create real American characters because he lacked the knowledge and experience of being an American and could not use American actors, clothing, or props. Stallone Was Busy

Asked why the panel did not include any of the creators of ''Red Dawn'' or ''Rocky IV,'' for example, Mark Gerzon, the organizer of the entertainment summit, said that Sylvester Stallone was working on another film and some other people connected with the American films had turned him down.

Robert Chartoff, co-producer of ''Rocky IV,'' said in a telephone interview that Mr. Gerzon had asked him to participate but that the Film Institute later said it had enough participants.

''I'm not overly proud of that aspect of 'Rocky,' Mr. Chartoff said of the portrayal of a Russian fighter as a killing machine. ''But it was a device of drama. We didn't intend to make anything more out of the Russian than we did out of Mr. T. They were each worthy antagonists. It's common in melodrama to represent characters in one-sided fashion: Italians as Mafia men, spoiled rich people, the tough kids from the street.

''You need worthy villains.''

Bice Rusi negativci dok ne ulete ameri sa zapada i kinezi sa juga da jedni uzmu Ural a drugi Sibir. E, kad ne bude bilo Rusije koja se ne daje dupe kao shto daju Chesi, Srbi, Englezi, tad nece vise biti Rusa kao negativaca.
