Swift Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 I would do a remake of Innerspace where a guy gets shrunk down and accidentally injected into Kevin Spacey. It'd be called Innerspacey. "In Spacey, no one can hear you scream" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tromatagon Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 I'd remake the Monster Squad so the fucker who did the Encino Man Mummy movies wouldn't fuck it up Iike he's actually going to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burgundy LaRue Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 I'd love to see more B-level horror movies get redone. The Stuff is almost begging for a remake, with GMOs being a big deal now.

stiffshots Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 ^^^ Alternate tagline: It's the snack...that eats YOU. I actually wrote, for shits and giggles and to learn screenplay-writing software, a version of Peckinpah's BRING ME THE HEAD OF ALFREDO GARCIA, with the lead role flipped to a two-fisted female badass. Think Katee Sackhoff, or Michelle Rodriguez. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramsey Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 Oh, tyhere are so many. However, "Highlander" is begging for a re-make/re-launch. Get a younger Scottish actor (yes, a real Scot to play the Scot) for Conner, maybe Emun Elliot. Javier Bardem gets to be Connery's character because he's a handsome Spaniard with chops. Clive Owen or Mark Strong play the Kurgan because they both are capable of bringing the evil and it's my movie and I cast who I want. Then, we write the thing so a sequel or two actually make sense as opposed to the raging shit storm the original "trilogy" turned into. As an aside, yes, the opening scene will still involve a sword fight in a parking garage during a wrestling show. The Shield will be featured in the wrestling footage because it's my fucking movie. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GojiColin Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 Man there's a few films that would be fun to do remakes of. A modern take on The Living Dead at Manchester Morgue could be fun. Or a remake of the Blind Dead movies. Really from a US perspective remaking any fun Euro-B-Horror movie could be worthwhile. And of course since it's been remade into everything else, Yojimbo as a martial arts film starring Tony Jaa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reed Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 Jaws from the point of view of the poor, victimized shark. Ideally, you'd also have some animal rights person show up and point out to the characters that while sharks only kill a handful of humans a year, humans kill literally thousands of sharks per month. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trocar Slush Weasel Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 How has nobody remade Three Days of the Condor since the first Gulf War? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig H Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 Matrix 2 and 3. Just completely ignore the original Matrix Reloaded and Matrix Revolutions. This all needs to happen before any of the core actors get too old. No giant rave/orgy scene. Also, incorporate some of the more interesting things from the Matrix MMO, like the truce between humans and machines where if any humans want to free themselves, they're allowed to do so. And more with the Merovingian. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Death From Above Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 Jaws from the point of view of the poor, victimized shark. Ideally, you'd also have some animal rights person show up and point out to the characters that while sharks only kill a handful of humans a year, humans kill literally thousands of sharks per month. And then the cast of Wicked Tuna show up and throw the activist overboard, who is promptly eaten by a shark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caley Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 A remake of 'Westworld' with better effects, more of a virtual reality bent with Arnold Schwarzenegger in the Yul Brynner role but as more of a Terminator-inspired persona. I've also often thought an update of 'Heart of Darkness' (So sort of a remake of 'Apocalypse Now') in Iraq/Afghanistan could be staggeringly good, too. Lastly, not a remake but a sequel, I really feel like we need one more Snake Plissken movie. 'Escape From Tokyo' with yakuza and ninjas, 'Escape From Afghanistan' with evil Talibanesque baddies, or even better 'Escape From Florida' with bath-salt zombies, insane local authorities and gun-toting rednecks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elsalvajeloco Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 Remake Heaven's Gate but make the penultimate scene the entire movie. Also, you can probably intersperse more Walken into the film. It would get a NC-17 rating but I totally don't give a shit. I just wanna see it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Execproducer Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 Judd Nelson's career. He was okay in Light It Up. Too bad it was a stupid movie. So yeah, after making my smart-ass comment I looked him up on IMDB. Obviously he has a thriving, if under the radar, career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Control Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 I'd remake THE HITCHHIKER'S GUIDE TO THE GALAXY with much of the same cast (Martin Freeman, Stephen Fry, Bill Nighy), but cast Steve Coogan as Zaphod and David Tennant as Ford. Then I'd get Edgar Wright to direct. But actually, this wouldn't be a remake, it would somehow be made instead of the original. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
