9-5 Jennifer Aniston as Dabney Colemans part.
"Da 5 Bloods" could be a very good movie, if it was remade to portray Vietnam and the Vietnamese believably.
"Dark Star" could be remade with better effects, and to not just coast so much on a good premise.
The Great Escape
The Dirty Dozen, but it’s got to be violent and rough, with Tarantino directing.
Rain Main should be remade with Oz Pearlman replacing Dustin Hoffman
A really good, twisted Willy Wonka movie -- written and directed by Quentin Tarentino.
Devil Dog.
I think there are too many remakes.
^ Can't argue with that.
The list of good remakes is much shorter than bad ones. John Carpenter's "The Thing" was a great remake. Much better effects, but also more realistic characters.
1999 Eyes wide shut .
All those 80s comedies with gratuitous nudity.
Both"I Am Legend" and "The Omega Man" are kinda remakes of "The Last Man On Earth" ( youtube.com ). They're all loosely based on the same book. But I still think the first one is still worth watching. The plots are different enough so they don't feel repetitive. The characters in the two older versions may seem more simplistic nowadays. But that reflects how people in the past had harsher opinions about giving in to self-indulgence. You don't see as many movies that rely heavily on voice-over narration, I don't know if that seems lame to younger people.
Ski Patrol!
Summer School
I wonder how movies like Animal House and Revenge of the Nerds would fly today. I'm betting they couldn't even get made.
Porky's!
Porky's. They won't have any problem finding Cuban strippers.
Dog, I been got this idea: please remake Back To The Future
This time, use the original Marty McFly and the original storyline--which wasn't as comedic. It was mild horror.
Whoever said it, was sooo right. If you alter the past, you're going into a different future. Marty 'returned' to a different 1985. That's not the family he grew up with. That's sad. That's not funny. The original actor was playing it that way and got canned. Nah, I want that sad version too.
Really, really think about being zapped into your family today and they all have slightly different personalities than you know them for. That's horror, man. I can't handle that, bruh.
Don't think you can handle that. Closest thing to it: a classmate's brother got amnesia, once, briefly, after an accident. His personality changed. His face, his aura, was totally different. She was my classmate, and he was her older brother, so he and I were just becoming friends, then he had his accident. First thing, he completely didn't remember me. At all. I remember catching his sister, my classmate, crying in school. She's like, 'he's so different now. He's like a totally different person.'
He used to be the nicest kid. He had glow. After the accident there was a fixed scowl on his face. I heard he liked different food than before. He was dating before. Dumped her after the accident and dated a totally radical chick that's your never see him with. It was wild to see. His face had no glow, just a cloud over him.
I heard later he regained a good part of his previous memory and personality. But I wanna see that explored. Because otherwise, Back To The Future taught you: Go For It! Things Will Work Out Great! Nah, holmes. That's not real. Remake it.
Fawk it, I wanna a remake of The Breakfast Club. All Black cast.
Recast with 1 of each: African, Caribbean, Suburban, Ratchet, Country, Nerd, Trans, Inner City. Canadian. Afro-Latin. Oh, the conversations. Oh, the arguments. Man, written good, this could be fire.
If they ever remake Star Wars, put this in, coach!
I needs the whole movie on this level right here
Could make a movie about going back in time to make change Back To The Future.
Escape from New York
How would it be better than the original Escape from New York? A Maggie boob downgrade would be probable, as happened with Lt. Uhura.
Splash
Seems Like Old Times
A movie on my list that has been made but not released yet, The Odyssey. Should be great.
A movie I originally saw on tv when i was a youngster and recently watched online, The Vikings with Kirk Douglas.
Blazing Saddles (original script but someone like Dave Chappelle in the lead) Barbarella (so much insinuated sex, just go for it)
^ There's supposed to be another Barbarella in the works, with Sydney Sweeny as the lead.
Which is probably a much better choice than when Robert Rodriguez was going to remake it with his then girlfriend Rose McGowyn of Charmed.
Bad Day at Black Rock
Midnight Run Kevin Bateman as Mardukas Jamie Fox as Jack Walsh
