Episode 58 -- Roundtable Discussion III

2. All Quiet on the Western Front set to be remade with Daniel Radcliffe. What is it about this WWI anti-war film that resonates with audiences? Is it a coincidence that it keeps getting remade after U.S. involvement in conflicts that were considered unsuccessful (Vietnam and Afghanistan/Iraq)?
