I think there are movies that are ripe for an update, like Bell, Book, and Candle, for instance
Ooooh. Yeah, that would be good.
Oh, wow. This place looks great. Oh, I feel like a witch in a magic shop.

A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

We need a remake of the Star Wars prequels with a different script, actors, and director.
How can this happen?

Someone should make them, and when George Lucas sues, they should claim that they weren't ripping off Star Wars, but that they were inspired by 1930s serials, Kurosawa's "Hidden Fortress", John Campbell, Frank Herbert's Dune, etc.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I'm up for a remake of My Fair Lady if Eliza walks away at the end.

Instead of remaking Battle Royale why don't they buy the right to The Hunger Games?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Are they mutually exclusive? A Hunger Games script has already been written.

They seem kind of redundant.

But if people never made the same movie at the same time we wouldn't have Transmorphers.

I also refuse to believe that the remake of The Crow is really happening. I am comfortable in my denial, thanks.
I worry that Russell Brand is going to star in this one, too.
