movie remakes

i just watched a trailer for the departed... a new scorsese movie starring leo, matt damon and jack nicholson. it's a remake of the asian movie "infernal affairs" which i saw last year and absolutely loved. that movie was just very well made, with a great script and relatively good direction. i really like both the main actors in it - tony leung and andy chau - they've done solid work in the movies i've seen. i really like matt damon and can stand leo, so i'm hoping this movie does the original justice. i don't know about jack nicholson though, i hope he can avoid his same old shtick....
