Remaking the Bride (not Bride of Frankenstein) sounds like a good idea. I always liked the original, but the dialogue and some of the acting (Sting is not an actor!) was a bit stiff. A version of the Running Man that's closer to the book would be great.
Oh ffs. We really don't need any more remakes 2024 was full of remakes, sequels and prequels. Give us some original ideas please. That said. The Highlander one could be worth a watch with that cast
TBF, *NOBODY* who says this is capable of writing a script &/OR screenplay capable of recouping the cost of a family going to the theater, let alone cracking $200 MILLION at the box office Also, as WICKED will show you, a movie doesn't have to be original so long as it's... *POPULAR*😉
Many original movies worked even if production and scrip was cheesy , because of the cast. Psycho with Vince Vaughn huge miss, trying replace Robert Englund Freddy with Jackie Earle Haley did not fly. Tom Cruise Mummy, Universal trying start its classic monsters failed , if you gonna do modern monster movie its better be R rated not PG 13. Like studio took R rated Alien and Predator and made a PG 13 flop .

The problem I have with How to Train your Dragon being adapted is that it looks shot for shot the same as the animated film. And we all know how well those are received (Psycho and The Omen spring to mind). Not to mention taking a cartoon and making it real never really works because you suck out that toon factor because it wouldn't work in live action and those are often some of the biggest laughs.
I was 100% up for Bride until the 'dance numbers'. But I've been waiting someone to take a proper go at Running Man since I read the book, and I'm really pleased it's Edgar having a go (as long as he doesn't comedy it up.)
How is The Hand that Rocks the Cradle simultaneously a "cult classic" and a "box office smash"? Aren't those 2 categories mutually exclusive by definition?
@@YBAXTREME8TH2012something can do well at the box office but be forgotten afterwards. The cult status is more a later development of a strong fan base without any apparent reason for the movie getting that sort of support years later.
@@just9911 if something is a box office smash that eliminates the cult classic definition. The "Cult classics" term originated in 70s to describe underground films and midnight movies. Only a VERY inclusive definition would include box office hits, it's almost exclusively box office flops or underground films that are considered cult classics. There's really no reason to use both in a movie review. Box office smashes are almost always what would be considered cult classics by pure definition, they develop cult followings due to the sheer popularity, while actual cult classics are films that were not popular or performed poorly that slowly developed a group of fans that grows organically over a period of time. The hand that Was ocks the Cradle was a VERY popular movie when it came out, I was a kid and knew about it, it simply doesn't fit the commonly accepted definition of cult classic.
would love to see Doug Jones or Andy Sirkis as the creature from the Black Lagoon. Their costume body work gives so much emotion to beings without typical human features.
Leslie Nielsen was a serious/dramatic actor before he was cast in Airplane. Why is it so hard to imagine that Liam Neeson can do the same type of deadpan humor in a remake? If you actually understood why the humor in The Naked Gun worked so well, you would understand that a serious actor and not a comedic actor needed to be cast in the remake.
Also, Nielsen wasn’t a household name when he did Airplane. He was doing guest appearances on TV shows like Columbo. Neeson is a much bigger name at this point in his career and audience will have to try to forget who he is and his action persona.
Edgar Wright's last couple of movies were not his best work, but I know I would love his version of Running Man, knowing how crazy the original film was.
Love Edgar Wright, love Stephen King. Despite my ambivalence towards Glenn Powell, I'm excited for The Running Man, especially if it's more faithful to the book.
Yeah, that would actually serve a purpose since the Arnie movie chose to do its very own thing. The two versions could probably co-exist quite peacefully.
Actually, Whale's "Bride of Frankenstein" was just exploring a part of Shelley's book that was left out of his 1st film. Kenneth Branagh pretty much covered the entirety of the book (with some dramatic license, of course) back in 1994, and is by far the best film adaptation of the source material.
Any word on if the "Logan's Run" remake is ever going to get out of Development Hell? Also, remake "Fantastic Voyage" with modern effects technology in 3-D!
the Running Man was one of my faves as a kid. those neck bombs traumatized the imagination long before The Hunger Games or Suicide Squad borrowed from the film
I think it's lazy to do remakes of movies that were fine to begin with. Meanwhile there are loads of original screenplays by talented writers that get shelved..
I honestly prefer when they remake movies that had a good premise but just didnt turn out very good rather than them remaking a bunch of movies that were already good.
Street Fighter (2026) It's Probably Going To be like Street Fighter Assassin's Fist (2014) a shot to shot adaptation of the Video Game franchise I want casting news ASAP
@@MichaelRowe-cv3oq I was (if memory serves) a freshman in high school when that came out and a few of us went to the THEATER to watch that! Imagine the disappointment, only to be topped probably by the Dark Tower, which was something I liked to read as a kid with the short story format. Then there's the made for TV mini-series of King's that didn't do so well; The Langoliers and the Tommyknockers.
And Victor was engaged to his adopted sister, Elizabeth (I don't remember if they married, it's been too long since I read the novel). Will Maggie Gyllenhaal finally give us her story? (I doubt it, but it would be cool!)
Most of these sound good to great. The Running Man deserves a remake more in the vein of Bachman's novel, not that I didn't love the Schwarzenegger version. Did I miss Guillermo del Toro's version of Frankenstein being mentioned?
To whomever decided that HtTYD needed a remake, you are encouraged to imagine a string of vile insults and slurs that end with the phrase 'and the horse you rode in on'
STOP REMAKING MOVIES! Allow the people with real imaginations to make art. I'm so tired of studios going back to the well of previous successes just to make money on the same exact idea. It's insulting.
There are so many names of filmmakers I adore getting tossed around here. Seriously, for half the entries on this list, you could have just read the names of the directors and that would have been enough to get me fully on board with the remakes. Edgar Wright has directed 2 of my top 5 all-time favorite movies, Chad Stahelski making "John Wick with swords" might be one of the most awesome things I've ever heard, and I'm a recent convert to the Cult of Lanthimos after watching a bunch of his stuff before Kinds of Kindness earlier this year.
You didn’t say anything about The Bride that gave me confidence in the upcoming film. A too-high budget, “dance numbers,” and Christian Bale cosplaying as Frankenstein cosplaying as Jared Leto’s Joker all sounds terrible.
The only one I'm really interested in is the running man. The original was fun, but had nothing to do with the book. I swear they only read the blurb on the back of the book and based the movie on that. So a film actuality based on the book could be really good. The bride was remade in the 80s, and the story was kind of used in several films, including Young Frankenstein. Highlander without a Queen soundtrack is blasphemy.
As far remakes/rebooted, doesn't matter for us die hards cause OG's will remain the standard. As I always say to this day, with exemption to My big 3. THE THING/THE BLOB/THE FLY, never be smeared of their greatness 🤘🏼👌🏽
How to Train Your Dragon doesn't need a live action remake and the render of Toothless looks awful, IMO. The animated movies where wonderful, they don't need to be touched
Oh oh.... I got one.... The CLASSIC film "THEY LIVE" and the much needed POLITICAL MESSAGE (DeepState outing) that the Aliens were stand-in for that went over most Heads back then!!!! But keep the 15m Fight Scene! LOL
I just witnessed a goddess/princess say "Beguiling specificity" and now my spirit can finally rest. Good luck resta y'all, that was my ticket punch. Someone buy her a coffee/whiskey for me. SHE SAID MY CODE PHRASE!
Of course How to Train Your Dragon will be good it will be essentially the exact same film just a bit extra thrown in, but unlike Lion King it probably won't look weird for the dragons as they won't be talking. Still seems far to soon for a remake, like Moana.
If they are going to do a Highlander remake, the best way to do it in order to have squeals is to have it take place in the 1980’s like the original. That way if you do make more than one you can have 40 years worth of Highlander not aging.
The Bride 1985 was the first remake of the bride of Frankenstein, as was Frankenstein Unbound 1990 the second, so this version will technically be at least the third (Fourth if you count Frankenstein Created woman 1967 as a very loose remake)
There is absolutely nothing they could do to improve on the original Highlander or Possession for that matter. You can't improve perfection (in my humble opinion)
Nothing about the potential remake of the original Attack of the 50 Foot Woman? It's still up in the air, but I was waiting for it to get an honorable mention if nothing else.
yeah is soon as i heard that Spike Lee was directing it I lost all hope for that movie. I find him so damn overrated. And I hate saying that word. Still, I'll never forgive him for what he did to Oldboy.
I saw the original "The Running Man" in theaters when it first came out and was very disappointed as it had hardly anything to do with the Stephen King story that it was "based on." I put that in quotes because other than the fact that the story was about a man competing on a game show with people hunting him, pretty much nothing else from the original story was in the movie. I always thought the original story would have made a much better movie. As a stand alone movie, I loved the original movie, but was still left wondering how much better it could have been if they had actually used the source material. I'm hoping Hollywood gets it right this time.
I heard "Directed by the great..." at least three times in this video but i don't feel like that's a guarantee anymore, specially when it comes to remakes
Only in the sense that it had a giant fishman, who lusted after a human female. That's about where the similarities end, but hey, that still is kind of a weird two things to have in common.
I'd say thirty years is a good minimum amount of time to wait before remaking a movie. That said, some of the movies on this list--"Naked Gun," for example--don't need to be remade in the first place.
A production suggestion. There's never a situation where I tune to a movie related channel to watch a person stand in front of a green screen and read from a script. I know whatculture loves talking over their videos, that's fine, but ditch the full screen profile talking head crap. It adds nothing to the experience.
Wish they'd remake movies that failed instead of messing up classics. There has to be an absolute massive backlog of 'cheap' IP of movies that had a good idea but terrible movie execution.
That's too logical for Hollyweird
What's balls is that guaranteed a bunch of those are probably tied up in legal BS over rights and stuff, and the holders don't want to take the risk
Big budget remakes of "Plan 9 from Outer Space" or "Manos: The Hands of Fate".
Remaking the Bride (not Bride of Frankenstein) sounds like a good idea. I always liked the original, but the dialogue and some of the acting (Sting is not an actor!) was a bit stiff.
A version of the Running Man that's closer to the book would be great.
@@ProfArmitage218 But one of the things that makes Plan 9 so good is how very low budget it was. It is entertaining because it is so funny and cheap.
The bride was made in 1985 with Jennifer beals and sting
I was going to type the same thing!!!
I was coming here to say the same thing.
Thank you, so many forget about this classic
My thoughts exactly.
Same here. I remember that movie with the dwarf that died in the circus. His only friend.
Hollywood is so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn’t stop to think if they should.
The 1987 version of The Running Man has almost nothing to do with Stephen King's novella. So it'll be cool to see it remade more faithfully.
Like, how are they going to treat the airliner scenes.
The last time they tried to remake an Arnold film to make it closer to the original source material, it was Total Recall.
@@jerrybaughman4340 which was a complete FLOP . . Good call by the way
I dont think anyone understood oldboy less then spike lee, hopefully he does some research this time
I actually do look forward to the remake of The Running Man. I just hope it’ll be rated R.
I loved this movie when I was younger
