Another "Remake" Bite's the Dust - Blu-ray Forum

Blu Angel · 02-27-2009, 06:39 AM

With all these movies getting remade now days,
What movies do you think are likely to be remade? Whether or not you want them to.

I bet you Hollywood does these somewhere down the road-

Legend
Casablanca
Ben-Hur

Too late, bought my ticket to go pitch the idea for all three of those movies! Mwahahahaa, I will be a millionaire with the cash I'll make off of remaking those puppies!

Well, they did a remake of The Pink Panther and it actually did well enough to get a sequel. I think the remake sequel bombed though as I haven't seen any ad's for it since it released. So, I think Hollywood will try and remake anything if they think people will go see it. I guess the next step is to start making remakes of remakes of remakes.

I believe the sequel bombed in the US, but is doing decent overseas. I may be wrong about that, but I swear I read it somewhere. I'm too lazy to go look it up though.

As of yesterday The Pink Panther 2 has made $43,731,766, and $30,000,000 of that is domestic.

I never bothered seeing the new ones with Steve Martin, while I find him funny, for me The Pink Panthers without Peter Sellers just doesn't work

Anyone who even attempts to remake these two should be caned in public as an example to others.

I can see them pulling remakes on Ben Hur & Legend but they better not even try Casablanca.

tigtat77 · 02-28-2009, 05:58 PM

The one remake I am actually looking foward to is Clash of the Titans.

The title of this thread made me think it was news about a planned remake getting canned. I had my fingers crossed on A Nightmare on Elm Street. Anyway...

I've always wanted to see Tim Burton remake Plan 9 from Outer Space. I thought it would be a nice thematic follow up to Ed Wood. I remember reading somewhere that someone was in fact planning to redo this movie, but I'm sure it'll be trash. I wanted a quirky tribute. Oh well.

In fact, a quick search shows that all the movies I was planning to list in this thread already do have remakes in the works. It's getting ridiculous.

I'm expecting a Goonies remake as well. My favorite childhood movie.

Penitus · 02-27-2009, 02:15 PM

They're going to remake the entire Godfather trilogy with Vin Diesel and Shia Lebeouf

I can't see how they could remake Casblanca & Ben Hur now a days but I will remain quiet just in case they decide to give it a try

Can you imagine Ashton Kutcher as Judas Ben Hur??
