![Film Production Explained - Each Step of the Production Process [Stages of Filmmaking, Ep 3]](/img/1.gif)
I remember what Siskel and Ebert used to say:
Don't remake good movies. Remake BAD movies.
Yes!
I remember them saying this.
Too bad Hollywood didn't listen.
Yea Hollywood isn’t listening!
Oh I don't know. Dune was a remake of a terrible 1984 film
The Super Mario Bros movie was better than the live action version from the 90s
Mortal Kombat 2021 was better than that crap 90s version
@@OscarMPG1which just proves the commenters point here..
Interesting ideas that were done poorly: Ishtar, Howard the Duck, Showgirls, Catwoman.
Movies that deserve a remake today: Logan's Run, The Swarm.
A lion, a tin man, scarecrow and a woman is already diverse.
Best comment 👍
☠️☠️
Biden could play the scarecrow
Nice one
Don't forget flying monkeys and munchkins......
Wizard of Oz is the first diverse movie I seen as a kid. It had a straw man, a tin man, a furry man, a good woman, a bad woman, people of various heights.
And a little dog too!
Little people, too
I know right?!
A majority of the cast is little persons and it's one of the best films ever made.
And a green woman and midgets
On this one, the tin man will be bronze.
There is no actor currently active who can top Jimmy Stewart in It's A Wonderful Life...simply perfection
85 years later and we are still watching The Wizard of Oz. The remake will be forgotten a year after it is released.
ie: The Wiz.
Yes, they made the Wiz. That should have been enough.
8 months.
Let's hope so 😅😅😅
It will be shelved before its even finished.
Whoahhhhhh!! Donna Reed is my aunt….the movie obviously holds a very special place in our family’s heart as well because of that…I’m shocked & yet not because of how beloved the film is culturally…I had NO idea there were plans for this…unreal 😬
That's awesome she's your aunt!
Wait Donna reed is your aunt how lucky!! How is she?!
I checked out your channel- you look a lot like her!
Wow, you had a lovely aunt! I'm a young guy (28) but I love The Donna Reed show. Very wholesome :)
I actually see her in you, holy crap! You’re beautiful like her.
There already was a diverse version. The Wiz was done in 1978!!
Yup.
And it's good too.
But not enough rainbow people for the current generation 😂
This is what I was going to say. I think the point is that diversity already existed, but they want DIVERSITY, which is different
Ease on down, ease on down the road!
How many tornadoes occur in Englewood, California? It's an apartment complex? So the tornado picks up an apartment complex and takes it to Oz, landing it on the Wicked Witch of the East in Munchkinland? How many other apartment complex residents accompany Dorothy on the Yellow Brick Road?

Begging..
'The Wizard of Oz' and 'It's A Wonderful Life' are already classics and sheer perfection, so no reboot/remake will be better or worth watching.
"It's a wonderful life" is one of the most fantastic movies ever made. My mum and I watch it every year at christmas time, its tradition and honestly, i am scared to see what this guy is doing with such an incredible, timeless story.
Same! my mom and I love this movie as well. I’m waiting for her to come out of the bathroom, so I can tell her the “wonderful” news 😂😢😭. I’m black and I don’t see the point in all this. the movie has nothing to do with race. So why change it based off of race alone. It doesn’t make sense. 😢
hopefully this doesn’t come out wrong, but that’s why I never liked black movies. Every black movie I watched growing up always had to let you know it’s a black movie. Ex: stereotypical things like chicken, clothes, hair, location, the n word, racism and so on. Sorry didn’t mean to type that much 😅
He said he's making it more inclusive and diverse and told from a black perspective. 🤮
Don't see it. Ignore the rip-offs they kindly call remakes.
Haha, I wasn't planning on it@@terrylandess6072
There was a movie back in the seventies called “It Happened One Christmas “ with Marlo Thomas . It was adapted from It’s a Wonderful Life. In this version she ran the Building and Loan, and she needed to be shown that her life had value. Basically it was the same movie, but the roles were reversed.
Was it any good?
I really liked it, but then I saw the original. I loved the Jimmy Stewart and Donna Reed version so much more.
I watched it once, it was nice seeing the same high school gym being used, and there is a short interaction Mary has with her husband (was he still named George?) in the Pottersville universe that differs from the original that I thought was interesting. At the end of the day, you don't need to watch It Happened One Christmas when you have It's a Wonderful Life. It's not bad, it's just nothing special.
There was an even more obscure made-for-TV spinoff called "Clarence" in the early 90s. Clarence is played by a younger actor because "angels age in reverse." Tells you everything you need to know about that one.
The original is the best but I love Marlo Thomas watch the series That Girl it's so good
Brett you are so right…. Why is it necessary to destroy the classics…. My family won’t be watching it… No more diversity we’ve had enough!
I wouldnt say 'No more diversity', that on its own is extremely racist. BUT... I would specify merit and culture should be given more importance than diversity. Its not a good practice to destroy well instated story lines to protect diversity.
If you are creating new storylines, where different view points can be explored, it would be important to add characters and actors from different ethnicities and communities to ensure inclusion. This isnt some far left radical ideology like the lefties make it out to be. Its simply allowing those kids to feel included when watching the movies, or even adults to feel a sense of acceptance and connection when watching those movies and tv shows. Obviously it takes a bit of morality as well as some sympathy to understand their point of view.
Representation is important, but preserving culture is important as well. Instead of replacing well set storylines with mushed up modern ones, be imaginative create new stories. For example Wakanda forever, The Princess and the Frog, Everybody hates chris, and many more wonderful prodcutions has been made representing many wonderful communities and I love every single one of them
P.S. : We already have a diverse version of the Wizard of Oz. Its called 'The WIZ' (1978). Now thats a perfect remake
Ah yes, linking "diversity" immediately with race, isn't that kinda racist? 🤔@@firstconsul001
Wanna know what all these remakes are for? To replace the classics, which might eventually even get erased. It was never about money..
Are u slavic?@@VladTepes-SaviorofEurope-mw4uy
We already have a diverse Wizard of Oz, it's called the Wiz
it was an off broadway musical before that mediocre movie
These classic movies are classics for a reason. They're so good that they seem like they came out not too long ago. We really need to stop trying to remake every single film in existence.
Too bad the MGM film isn’t a good adaptation of the book
Also, the fact that they were made so long ago makes them special.
It's a wonderful life isn't that great of a film
Tell that to Disney execs
@@backdoorletsdothis How come?
We already had a "diverse" Wizard of Oz... it's called *THE WIZ* and it's awesome.
And it's was pretty good too.
Brett inspires me.. My parents said if i get 70K followers They'd buy me a professional camera for recording..begging u guys , literally
Begging..
I wiz on wokeness.
Came here to say this too!
Well it is not really diverse. It s an all black cast. I prefer the stage play than the movie.
The dumb part of rebooting It's a Wonderful Life is that it's so well told, and a similar type of story has been told so often that it's practically archetypal.
If you're going to do an updated version with different stressors for George to face or a different community, you could just as easily slap a different title on it and make your own thing.
This ruined my day. My favorite movie of all time “It’s a wonderful life” changed my life for the better and it has saved so many peoples lives. It is a shame they are remaking it. And to make it even worse they are making it without the same idea and values as the original. It is a true tragedy due to the fact that many young folks may not see the original film, and only know of the new one. With many young folks being depressed ,more than ever the original it’s a wonderful life is well needed.
Remember that NO man is a failure who has FRIENDS.
God Bless us All.
So we’re just going to ignore The Wiz and all the talented people who made it?
Yup, no LGBTQIA characters in The Wiz.
So it's not diverse enough.
Michael Jackson got cancelled so they won't ackowledge the Wiz's accomplishments.
@@oliviav.3565That is debatable.
Yep
My husband saw "it's a wonderful life" for the very first time last month. He cried. Me on the other hand, have seen it a hundred times since the day i was born and it never gets old.
I still cry at the end. And sometimes after George Bailey gets punched in the mouth. And when he loses it with his family. I can really FEEL his desperation.
So for 78 years nobody had a problem with It's A Wonderful Life, but all of the sudden in 2024 it's problematic?
It's the woke/dei era!😂🤡 of course they have a problem 😂 with literally everything 🙄
Not an original idea amongst them. Like recycling. 😂
yeah because they had kids, they should have decided to pursue their careers and live an overly materialistic, selfish and meaningless life before dying alone and having their faces eaten by their cats. Basically DINKS
I have watched close to 4000 movies and i have to say "its a wonderful life" holds à special place in my heart. Definitely in my top 10.
They already made a diverse Wizard of Oz. It's called the Wiz. It had Diana Ross and Michael Jackson. Tons on tv shows have ripped off It's a Wonderful Life too.
Nothing beats a broken Jimmy Stewart, just home from war, playing a broken man.
George Bailey never went to war, that was his brother Harry. George was deaf in one ear so he was precluded from serving, so instead he stayed in Bedford Falls and helped how he could from there while also operating the building and Loan family business.
@@emberparadox458 Sorry if I was unclear. Jimmy Stewart went to war and had PTSD from his experience. I'm saying he brought that to the character.
@@Unlovedmale48 Ooooooh I see, applogies for the misunderstanding.
@@emberparadox458no Jimmy Stewart had just got home from war with PTSD, that's why the 3rd act seemed so real, he was working through his demons through g bailey

@@Otokichi786Awesome statement!
The Wizard of Oz: Illegal Immigrant Edition
Well Dorothy would be the illegal immigrant in that case, I don't think she brought her passport when she got whisked away by that tornado.
Oz would also be an immigrant; he came to Oz without permission in a hot air balloon.
Wasn't that basically what Dorothy was on the modern TV series that came out a few years ago?
They already did a black Wizard Of Oz. It is called The Wiz. Michael Jackson and Dianna Ross.
It's already been done... "It Happened One Christmas" with Marlo Thomas, "The Wiz", plus a few other OZ based movies
And they all sucked.
@@drew6194 🤷♀️ Most remakes do 😂
Didn't they already make The Wiz in the '70s? Also, the Muppets version features Ashanti as Dorothy. It's already been diversified twice.
Yes, I thought I was the only one who remembered The Muppet Wizard of Oz
Both timeless films. I watch "It's a Wonderful Life" every Christmas season. For my part, any remake of these films will never exist for me.
The Wiz with Diana Ross, Michael Jackson, Richard Pryor and Nipsey Russel was an all black remake of the Wizard of Oz and I totally enjoyed it as a kid. I watched it before seeing the original movie and it was much more of a hip contemporary take on the story (70s contemporary).
And heavy hitter well respected black actors too. Maybe just maybe he doesn't know about it 🤷🏾♀️
Shrek 4Ever After, and Men in Black III are both the only It's a Wonderful Life remakes anyone would ever need.
The Wizard of Oz already had a diverse reboot back in the 70s. It was called "The Wiz" and had an all-black cast.
An all black cast is the complete opposite of diverse
As Bill Cosby who starred in the Wiz would say ''y"see Hollywood has the braaaiiin damage"
@@warriorspath95 i can't tell if your comment is a joke lol. bill cosby wasn't in the wiz. they considered having him play the tin man in a tv special, but they never did it.. (but maybe you're joking about that and i just don't realize it)
How much more diverse can it be? A lion, tin man, a scarecrow, a white girl and a green witch
Don’t forget the flying monkeys, very relatable.
And midgets
and Most if not all of the Lolipop guild were acted by dwarves
Yes I completely forgot about the lollipop guild
Yeah, but it has no super powered black woman. We need another one.
Hollywood just keeps proving that the only thing they're capable of is remaking movies rather than coming up with their own unique ideas. I also can't understand why anyone would want to take part in a remake rather than a role in a new story. The ability to portray a character no one else has done before and be recognized for that, has a whole lot more meaning than trying to compete with performances of the same character, from actors who most likely did it far better.
Lolol wow…. So by your logic, why are we adapting books to scripts to be acted out on a stage…. but then OHHH, it was loved so much they rewrite the script for screen adaption, hire all new and younger actors to play the roles and then imprint that atrocity permanently on a reel of celluloid film.
The absolute ability to adapt stupid opinions of other people and make it sound so much better, but worse, but like you totes improved the way the character was thinking about and saying the asinine things concerning his own opinions and actions. Like, for real tho… I don’t even doubt for a second that was a remake from a different perspective on stupidity. You must be a METHOD actress. Such a huge fan. 😯😮🙄👹🤷🏻🤣
@placeboeffect666 I find it entertaining the amount of offense you took to my opinion. However, there are several people who would tend to agree that genuine stories from around the world, so many of which have yet to be heard, would hold more impact in diversification, as well as interest on a mass scale as opposed to a 3rd remake of Charlie and the chocolate factory or any live action remake of a story that's been heard a thousand times before. Also, most books would be better off left as books rather than being butchered and adapted to stage or film.
"It's a Wonderful Life" is one of my favorite Christmas movies and it is perfect as is
I happened upon 'a wonderful life' last christmas on the TV. I live in Sweden and I usually do not watch TV, just streaming, while visiting mothers for the celebrations. I became captivated by this old film and I just couldn't stop watching - beautiful movie - so well done it captivated a weeb like me.
Excuse me, but the Wizard of Oz was already "re-imagined" back in 1978. It was called "The Wiz" and had an incredible all black cast. It took me years to decide to see it and I was very impressed with the energy level and the creativity that set the story in Harlem. I highly recommend this movie.
It is too bad nobody in Hollywood reads books because they might notice Frank L. Baum wrote a series of stories of Oz. Any of those could be brought to the screen.
As far as dei in the wizard of Oz is concerned, in book 2 there's literally a fairy princess that was turned into a boy as an infant to protect her identity, then she was changed back later on... and there was a girl that was a living ragdoll, a glass cat, a beetle who is a professor, and everything is ruled by fairy princesses, a woman who can change her head like a manmequin, and several of the heroines are girls too.
Some of these characters are spread throughout the books
Clearly already diverse.
I am waiting for another long overdue American Pie movie! Everyone loves Steve Stifler and the crew in GenX awesome banter. 😁
The wizard of oz already got a "diverse" remake, The Wiz and it's actually really good. Michael Jackson is the scarecrow and diana ross is dorothy.
I'd love to see Brett as Dorothy
Maybe that’ll be Jeremy’s next project after Snow White 😂
You realize Dorothy is supposed to be about eight years old, right? Have you not read the book? Judy Garland was too old to play the character, and she was younger than Brett. Granted, Diana Ross was over thirty when the wiz came out, but my point is that the character works best when portrayed by a child.
@@bl3343How old was Fairuza Balk when she played Dorothy on Return to Oz?
If they ruin Its A Wonderful Life, I'll be so fucking pissed.
We already have two versions of the Wizard of Oz with black Dortheys and diverse charcters: The Wiz and the Muppets Wizard of Oz. Does this guy not know that?
It's A Wonderful Life is my favorite Christmas classic. Oh so glad I bought the dvd years ago.
That was the sharpest transition to a commercial I have ever seen. Seriously. People generally see a commercial coming and leave. You grabbed me mentally.
You think after all these diverse reboots people would learn that they are most likely to get negative backlash. It’s one of the most well known stories in the world and a 124 year old novel but do we really have to remake it? Why not use the money spent on that remake to create a new original film that people would enjoy?
Right? I listen to the explanation of the remake and I'm thinking "you have a story there, why does it need to be a rip off of someone else's?"
Pretty much most tv shows or cartoons have done " It's A Wonderful Life " episode. Also, They already a "black" Wizard of Oz, it's called the Wiz which is currently on tour at the Golden Gate Theater.
"It's a Wonderful Life" is the only movie I watch at least once per year.
Michael Jackson’s ‘The Wiz’ wasn’t diverse enough apparently.
Its a Wonderful life has already been redone, in 1977 Marlo Tomas stared in "It Happened One Christmas ". I was only 13 when it came out and I only recall that I saw it not if it was any good.
They already did a remake of It's a Wonderful Life called "It Happened One Christmas"(1977) where they switched the genders of the Jimmy Stewart and Donna Read roles.
Marlo Thomas and Wayne Rogers. I saw it before the real version because we didn't have UHF stations in our area back then to play it. I don't remember anything about it other than the "Merry Christmas Bedford Falls!" sequence, but I'd love to see Orson Welles play Potter. (Note they didn't gender swap the baddie.)
Brett: "You think... Do you have a thought?" LOLOLOL, epic line! It had me laughing. I look forward to listening to reviews tearing those movies apart - if they ever make it to theaters - but I have no intention of watching them myself.
We need people to start adapting other works that already have diverse characters. Or creating original works like Nope, Get Out, RRR, Crazy Rich Asians etc
Apparently they never heard of the wiz. It's a race changed take on the classic tale. It starred Richard Pryor as the wiz. Michael Jackson as the scarecrow. Diana Ross as Dorothy. Nipsey Russell as the tin man. Ted Ross as the cowardly lion. And Lena Horn as Glinda. It released in 1978
"It's a Wonderful Life" was remade in the 1970's as a TV-movie staring Marlo Thomas, & there have been a few attempts to make new "Wizard of Oz" films too, some sequels, others remakes.
Munchkin land will be called “average height land”. Nah fam 😂
michael jackson and diana ross were literally in the wiz 😭
The only It's a Wonderful Life and Wizard of Oz remake we've ever needed are the VeggieTales ones. Lots of diversity of produce, succinct, beautiful animation. What more could you ask for?
So true.
We already have a ghetto "Wizard Of Oz". It is called "The Wiz". It stars Diana Ross as Dorothy and Michael Jackson as the scarecrow.
My favorite Wizard of Oz remake is "Tin Man" with Zooey Deschanel
off topic but her room is actually goals
3:25
Guess he never heard of The Wiz 😂
Hah man that was so bad.
@@BeansMcGriddle It really was
I'll continue to watch the originals, along with How the Grinch Stole Christmas.
There has already been a remake of the Wizard of Oz. It was “The Wiz” with Michael Jackson, Dianna Ross and Nipsey Russell, 1978.
These films are pure classics, considered two of the best movies ever made. How can you improve perfection?
A lion, a tin man, a scarecrow and a little girl with a black dog - That's NOT diverse?
My dad sees It’s A Wonderful Life as one of his favorite movies and he prefers it in its classic form, so I’m not sure if he’s gonna really like it’s getting a remake or really not.
Ah yes, Inglewood California, known for its wheat fields and tornadoes!
Brett brings me a laugh, but her editor. It's like the hardest try not to laugh challenge.
There has also been a remake of It’s A Wonderful Life that swapped the roles called It Happened One Christmas. It starred Marlo Thomas as Mary Bailey and Cloris Leachman as the angel Clara. It came out in the late 70’s. It also had Orson Welles and other big actors and actresses from the time.
And that early-woke re-make sucked !!!
We already had a 'Diverse' 'Wizard of Oz'. It was called 'The Wiz' (1978.) Featured an all Black cast. Box office bomb: Cost $24 million, earned $21 million. Rotten Tomatoes Critics gave it 43% (35 reviews)l Audience gave it a 65% out of 25,000 ratings. It's still touring: "THE WIZ Will Return to Broadway in 2024 Following National Tour."
Michael Jackson 's acting skills and acting charisma can't compete with Judy Garland, the Lion, tin man and scarecrow
Omg no 😭 Classics really don’t need remakes for any reason. It’s A Wonderful Life is one of my favorite movies. I still watch the black and white version on tape.
There is already a diversity version of the Wizard of Oz made back in the 80's called The Wiz. Was it not enough to have a mostly black cast, including Michael Jackson, doing their musical version?
But there were no rainbow people, that's what this is really about.
THIS>>>@@oliviav.3565
@@oliviav.3565bingo. Id actually love a remake of both because I would love to see modern singers play old classics. But they would absolutely butcher the movies and we know it
The Wiz is an amazing "black" retelling of the Wizard of Oz
The 1939 Wizard of Oz was a remake. And the diverse remake of that has already been done. It was called "The Wiz" and starred Diana Ross as Dorothy and Michael Jackson as The Scarecrow.
So they are remaking The Wiz? Was The Wiz was not enough!?
The Wiz was perfect ngl
I don't think they even know
I'm no historian but hasnt the Wiz has existed for like 50 years.
Hollywood is bereft of creativity.
Bonus points to the editors for including a snippet of N’s Farewell from Pokèmon B&W at 0:29 omgg!!
Plenty of candidates for the scarecrow, “if I only had a brain”
underrated 😂
thats the best line i have heard
John Cena as the Cowardly Lion, they’ll jazz up the plot line so that he has to apologise to the Wicked Witch of the East for being wrong about whether the landmass she rules over is a country or a continent
Dylan Mulvaney as Dorothy following the yellow brick road to a hormone therapist aka The Wizard… Fuck! Coming up with a liberal woke plot line to an already established, respected franchise and ruining it in the name of “diversity” and “not-communism” (just like your everyday communism, but with a “not” and a hyphen in front of it to bamboozle you) is mad easy, any of these “diverse” gay writers who can’t write for shit that joined the strikes should have had a major pay cut, not rise 🤦♂️ Dipshits

If anyone has watched the trainwreck of the recent show called "Robyn Hood" lately - that's probably exactly how these "reimaginings" with "diverse" casting are going to turn out.
You know, for a group that represents themselves as daring to be different, they are notorious for having no original new ideas 😆
Is that an alien disguised as Holywood producer? Somebody call Matt Walsh to investigate.
They already did a diverse remake of the Wizard of OZ it was called The Wiz.
We already have The Wiz and thats great. If you cant enjoy things unless the characters look like you. You. Are. Miserable.
The thing is they seem to somehow ruin the storyline in someway. I loved the wiz! And the wizard of Oz was my fav growing up.
All these DEI remakes have me wanting to be George Bailey if Clarence never rescued him and he jumped off the bridge lol.
The Wizard Of Oz already has a "diverse" reboot, that we didn’t even know we needed. Its called "The Wiz", a musical movie from the 70's. No woke crap or pushing a narrative that says "we do it better" just good music and good acting. Michael Jackson's in it, too.
Richard Prior was funny as hell!!
If they wanted to make it vaguely clever, they could do the Tin Man with no heart being Trump and the Scarecrow with no brain being a conservative.
@@alejandropacheco7832 Definitely!

In the 70s they had the Wiz, in the 20teens thay had a diverse Dorothy tv series with a mexican Dorothy and a black wicked witch...it lasted all of a season.
Puts a whole new meaning on the "colored version" of It's a wonderful life.
i cannot believe that they’re doing a remake on it’s a wonderful life, but at the same time, of course they’re doing it
In "It be a Wunnaful Life" Georgavious Bailey finds out from his guardian angel Clarence what life in Bedford Falls would have been like if Georgavious had never been there to run his stable of 304s, sell crack, boost cars and manage his local loan sharking enterprise. To nobody's surprise, everything is better without Georgavious. Clarence shoves him off the bridge and earns his wings. Everyone lives happily ever after.
does nobody remember "the wiz"
I drank too much water and need to take a "wiz"
also, sounds lke i'll be rooting for the tornado
The Wiz is awesome, but there's a lack of 🌈 people. That's what they want to change.
I thought there already was a diverse Wizard of Oz = The Wiz!
As for It's a Wonderful Life, the greatest Christmas film ever made, I will continue to watch the original in black and white.
The muppets already did a diverse Wizard of Oz with Queen Latifah and Ashanti.
The Wiz?
When 'The Wiz' came out, it was more about re-imagining and less about pandering, which is why it worked. They honored the source material, instead of treating it like something to be shamed. Audiences don't get to feel good about their childhoods anymore...thanks Hollywood! ☹
This is so stupid. We already had a “diverse” Wizard of Oz like fifty years ago, The Wiz, and it was great! I remember watching it in school and enjoying it!
Yesss!
Ease on down, ease on down the road 🎶
Sci-fi channel made a modern day miniseries called Tin Man. There was also a show called Emerald City which lasted one season. Both were modern day reimaginings of Oz which have largely been forgotten because the charm of the original was missing. We don't need Dorothy in Underhood.
So many shows have used the Wonderful Life formula. So instead of tarnishing the legacy of this film, make a whole new movie with a similar storyline.
HOLLYWOOD: "So we are remaking-"
ME: "Bye " (I walk away.)
