Ladies and Gentlemen...please make it stop!

Why?

I think I'm going to cry.

 

[Anvil]

They should LEAVE that kind of franchise in the 80's/90's.

 

[Will Bozarth]

another fucking remake?

I Walked With A Zombie
Pet Sematary
Poltergeist
Child's Play
Friday the 13th

when will it end?!

 

[DreamNeonBlack]

yeah, remake no less. They are going to milk/ruin every single franchise.

For MGM, among those is a continuation of Bond and Pink Panther sequels, an announced remake of "Fame" and a not-yet-announced remake of "RoboCop," possibly in 3-D. "'RoboCop" would be great in 3-D, as would something we're hoping to announce soon," said Parent. This also includes "The Hobbit," which will be filmed in two parts released in 2011 and 2012, and maybe more after. "There's 80 years between the end of 'The Hobbit' and the beginning of 'The Lord of the Rings,'" said Sloan. "Think of the franchise." One other idea MGM was toying with was more "Rocky" films. Parent asked for a show of hands from the audience who might be in to that. Though there were a few very enthusiastic responses, many kept quiet





Oh and just for the record? Who wants a remake of FAME? Movie sucked back in the day.

 

[Anvil]

The Hobbit in live action would be great... but as long as they cast Ian McKellan again as Gandalf, and Peter Jackson directs.

EDIT: Looks like Guillermo del Toro is directing.

 

[Chromatose]

Robocop 3D is gonna be awesome DEAL WITH IT

 

[Will Bozarth]

oh, by the way... they're remaking Plan 9 from Outer Space.

 

[Calamitas1786]

Don't forget about the Hellraiser remake on the horizon.

 

[Phoenix5]

I heard that the agreement was as long as Ian McKellan is still alive he'll play Gandalf.


I could be mistaken.

 

[Will Bozarth]

Don't forget about the Hellraiser remake on the horizon.

forgot about that one!

arent they doing Nightmare on Elm Street, too?

 

[Calamitas1786]

That's what I hear. I'm not sure if it's a remake or a sequel, though.

They were gonna remake The Blob, too. Thankfully they scrapped that.

 

[DreamNeonBlack]

oh, by the way... they're remaking Plan 9 from Outer Space.

See, now a PLAN 9 movie could actually work. Plan 9 is considered the worst film ever made, because it was a badly made film. NOT because it was a bad story concept for a film.

Bringing the dead back to life to conquer the earth isn't a bad concept. Ed Wood was just such a shitty filmmaker. It has garnered the moniker because of the filmmaking and often people equate that with a bad story, which I do not.


A seriously made movie based on that story might actually be able to be pulled of successfully.

 

[Krigloch the Furious]

the first two Robocop movies are top class.
Dumbass! /Clarence Boddicker

 

[Kvlt Wench]

They're also remaking Evil Dead.

I don't know how they can possibly think that anyone can even compare to Bruce Campbell in that movie.

 

[Captain Beard]

No Campbell no watch!

 

[Calamitas1786]

I have $20 down on them casting Ryan Reynolds as Ash.

 

[Captain Beard]

Is Raimi even involved?

I think the shittiness is what makes it awesome!

Jesus Christ, why not just turn it into another Will Ferrell gimmick?

 

[Calamitas1786]

I could see it. He's the Steve Gutenberg of the new millennium.
