Added DiffLines:

* ''Film/Scarface1983'' compared to ''Film/Scarface1932''. Both share a RiseAndFallGangsterArc. The remake, however, is further removed from UsefulNotes/AlCapone and the TheRoaring20s by moving the action from UsefulNotes/{{Chicago}} to The80s UsefulNotes/{{Miami}}. Also, Scarface is no longer Italian but a Cuban immigrant.

* ''Film/{{Blastfighter}}'' was originally planned to be a sci-fi film: ''Film/MadMax'' [[RecycledInSpace in the woods]]. By the time it was changed to [[DieHardOnAnX Die Hard in the woods]], promotional material using the title ''Blastfighter'' had already been distributed, so the producers stuck with the title despite it having little to do with the new plot.
