Remakes, Remakes, Remakes!

I just wanted to state that I think it would be cool if someone remade a movie that isn't necessarily old yet. Forget 'Ocean's Eleven' or 'The Day of the Jackal' and stuff like that.

I want to see someone remake 'Harry Potter', just the first one. Then, like, release it at the same time part three comes out, just for kicks.

Then they should remake 'Boogie Nights.' Same story, same dialogue, just different actors and producers and maybe a different director, just for the hell of it.

remakes are stupid and pointless. they are the ultimate haven for people with no creativity.

No, your thinking of movie forums.

LMAO movie forums. Funny but not really true.

We have all these ideas and pointless theories that just bubble over cause nobody cares enough to look...

We have to much Creativity here.

Sometimes Remakes are good - for example...

Hmm...

Well nevermind then. Game remakes are cool though. I wish they would Re-remake Chrono Trigger into 3D, and ff7 with a graphics update (which they actually might, or so I've heard.).

Payce,

Worst I ever seen was a remake of Pyscho.

if they're going to remake a final fantasy game, it should be final fantasy 3, best final fantasy ever, and would be awesome to see with updated graphics. and no preston, i was not thinking of movie forums, it takes much more creativity to post on a forum then to make a movie that has already been made once.

not all remakes are necessarily bad...granted most turn out that way..but weird al does a good job....wait that's music..ok yeah for the most part remakes suck

theres just no point to them, especially since the movie they remake are always the ones that are good. so its imposiible to improve on them. (psycho, TCM). if they're going ot remake movies, it should be movies that had a good premise, but bad execution.

The reason Psycho was bad was because it was scene by sneen like the original and why watch that when I can watch the briliant original.

Okay, I can agree that it does take more creativity to create a worthy movie forum post than it would to re-make a movie. I was joking, otherwise I wouldn't be posting this ingenius message right now. My whole point is to re-make new films just for the heck of it. For instance, what if somebody, probably someone with a lot of money and no original ideas, decided to re-make 'The Master of Disguise' starring Dana Carvey? They could do it right. I might even pay to see it. And what about 'Lord of the Rings'? In a sense, isn't LOTR a remake of a cartoon movie version adapted from a book?

Alright, let the beating begin. I can take it.

i dont think that constitutes a remake. the lord of the rings cartoon movie was all 3 stories crammed into 1 movie, while the new ones are a trilogy.

Actually, all three stories were made into three separate cartoon movies released by Warner Bros.

Not a bad idea.

ive only seen the one called 'lord of the rings'

Didn't know that there was a cartoon for LOTR.

dont like remakes!

Like some but not The Haunting the original was better.

Peter Jackson is re-making King Kong. I heard he's adding several action scenes that were never in the original, one being a dog fight in the beginning of the film where the pilot's plane crashes on the island where Kong is discovered. Kong isn't the only giant on the island either. Supposedly there will be dinasaurs living there as well. How could you not want to see that?

i wanna see it for sure.

i hear there's going to be a remake of casablanca with j.lo and ben as the lead. that's sounds disasterous. the original was just fine, don't butcher the poor thing! sheesh! also, there was another old movie that was featuring lance bass...can't remember the name though. most of the remakes these days, just butcher the original to death. don't you agree? ^.~ PhOeNiX
