The film was originally about a Chinese invasion of America but scenes were re-shot and re-edited, while it was sitting in wait, due to China being offended and America wanting to keep their box office. This remake (which was finished filming over two years ago and shelved due to the studio, MGM, having financial troubles) is about an American invasion by North Korea (and some Russian allies) and centers on the town Spokane, Washington.
