This soft reboot of the Ghostbuster thread is all about Hollywood remakes, do-overs, reboots and unwanted sequels. We all know Hollywood is a cold, empty shell of what it used to be. (a criminal cess pit used for laundering money and coke) But it's never been more apparent than in the last few years. Hollywood, like the sticky bandits from Home Alone 2, (Remember that? Expect a reboot with a cameo from Kevin soon  ) have been dipping their glove made of duct tape into our collective brains and hoping to scoop out a few choice nuggets of nostalgia to feed back to us at an inflated price.REMEMBER THESE FILMS? Jurassic Park Ghostbusters Independence Day Terminator Predator IT and Buckaroo Banzai? Well they're all coming back IN THREE DEE and this is the place to talk about them. For a kick-off, let's get one thing straight. THE THING by John carpenter isn't a remake of "The Thing from Another World", buster. It's a more straight adaptation of the book, "Who Goes There."

It's more diverse yet lacks the bite and the cutting satire of the original, true. But just turn you're brain off and it's an alright distraction.

Nation posted:are they really doing a new predator?? yeah, it's called THE Predator. Shane Black is writing it and didn't he help co-write the original? And that's why there was a huge geek in this band of hardened bad-asses because he was on set writing it as they went? Fingers crossed it'll be good. Would anyone consider PREDATORS to be a pseudo remake of the first? because you have the big dude with the mini-gun and the proud dude with a bladed weapon who goes one on one with a Pred at the end...

Besides Event Horizon and Mortal Kombat anything Paul W.S. Anderson touches turns to sub-par dreck. His name is the death knell for any interesting sounding franchise.

It is pretty good. Even the Japanese dude sword scene was... not cringe-inducing, which is quite a feat.

They need to remake Harry Potter and give it to Wes Anderson to direct. Bill Murray as Dumbledore, Angelica Houston as McGonagall and Owen Wilson as Snape. Ben Stiller as Harry Potter.

Especially for the scene with the cutaway model of Hogwarts Castle where the narrator talks about the secret passages and dorms and other vital statistics while tiny students walk around on the model stairs.

A Fistful of Dollars is a remake of Yojimbo and isn't as good, but it gave Sergio Leone his career which is a good thing.

Everything sucks now. Big budget movies are almost impossible to gently caress up if you shove enough ads in people's faces. Although when a bomb does skip through it can be hilarious, like Jupiter Ascending.
