What 80's movie would you remake?
 
I would say either Splash or Ghostbusters, maybe even Back to the Future.

U-Warrior 06-04-2008 12:35 AM
Krull

Come on, how is this even a question?

Blitz 06-04-2008 12:39 AM
I would say Big Trouble In Little China. Kinda a love/hate thing with the idea, because honestly can't imagine it with any other cast, but an update with modern day special effects and someone awesome handling the directing/fight choreography, could be cool.

Also The Warriors. Yeah, it was made in 1979, but I'm including it. A proper remake, not that Tony Scott "Real Gangs" BS that's been floating around for a bit.

The Last Starfighter.

These movies where all prefect, there is no need to remake any of them...plus Evil Dead 2 is basically a remake of Evil Dead.

Xero 06-04-2008 11:33 AM
None.

If they sucked before, they'd suck now. If they were great before, they'd suck now.

Dunno about a remake but I'd love to see another Stand By Me/Goonie-esque film.

Loose Cannon 06-04-2008 01:21 PM

Actually had this conversation last night with my bro and a buddy while watching BTILC..

I'd love to see a Nightmare on Elm Street remake if done right.

Loose Cannon 06-04-2008 04:18 PM
hmmm

ManayZ 06-04-2008 05:07 PM
Nice, I thought I heard something about a Prequel/Remake before, not sure if that's the same thing.

Hopefully they don't screw it up and make it corny like that Freddy vs Jason shit...

Danny Electric 06-04-2008 05:14 PM
original is too good to be ruined

Unless I am still working at the movie theater I work at now(Since I get free passes to see movies) I'm probably not gonna bother seeing this. I don't know why but just the fact that Robert Englund will probably not be playing Freddy, makes me kinda think this movie will bomb.

Stickman 06-05-2008 01:49 PM
Nothing, I'm tired of remakes. Do people lack imagination nowadays to come up with something new?

Nowhere Man 06-05-2008 02:06 PM
Pretty much.

Yeah I feel the same way about Wes Craven not being involved. Micheal Bay is the one working on this though, and I liked his remake of TCM, so maybe it could turn out to be good.

A-team wasnt a movie but if done right it could be a decent movie.

Jeritron 06-06-2008 06:06 PM
No way Ghostbusters or Back to the Future. That's blasphemy.

I dunno what my answer is though. Prob something that could have been better, or was limited by the abilities of the time.
