As you said, it is already perfect. I don't see the point in re-making it. Spend the money making something new instead.

MONEY.

I guess you haven't noticed the slew of remakes in the past 7 years or so..
It's all about profit, it's easier to make money out of something that's been tried and tested than to think up an original concept. Simple as that. Expect E.T. and The Godfather remakes soon. People will gladly gobble it up and ask for seconds anyway.

What bothers me more is the Cowboy Bebop live action movie with Keanu Reeves as Spike. I'm cringing before they even started shooting it. Crying or Very sad

Also the fuckers get to re-release the back catalog flick they raped in the first place, and make yet another new revenue stream. Razz

I recently watched 2001: A Space Odyssey again, and I was thinking what a great remake it would make. Of course we'd need some aliens and spaceships with big ray guns, some A-list actors (and maybe a wrestling star or three) and a lot shorter scenes with more cuts.

This.


Navigator IS my favourite childhood film - and now it, like Short Circuit and god knows what else, is being raped and my memories dishonoured.

Fuck you Hollywood. I hope that when Korea nukes everyone, you're the first fucking place to go.

And a blond with big tits that fucks with Hal Laughing "Look Dave, I'm fucking your bitch while you are stuck in outer space. What are you doing Dave, you know it's against space regulations to jack off in zero G" Laughing

No it wouldn't work, what would it look like probably something like Armageddon, one scene=one second, can't see shit.

I always find it funny when people whine about remakes, as if it's somehow a personal affront to their nostalgia. I would have thought you'd got over the whole remake process already.

Perfect? No film is...

Maybe I'm thinking about another movie, but this one was far from 'perfect'. And you don't have to watch remakes, even if Hollywoord makes them.

What the point is? Well, obviously the point is to update an old movie so the younger generations can experience it.

Personally I also enjoy remakes, because they don't keep me from watching the original if I like it better.
But did you ever try to get a kid to watch a movie that was made 30 years before it was born? Will be pretty hard, so let them have something that matches their taste.

If you don't like the idea of a remake, then don't watch it. problem solved.

I disagree. Remakes can bring up completely different perspectives and set their own agenda or just enhancen the one from the original bringing it to a new audience. The Thing is a perfect example of this, imo.
