I saw something many years ago that still holds true: Why does Hollywood keep remaking good movies? Doesn’t it make more sense to remake bad movies?

[@John_Smith_60]

Remembering that most sequels and remakes aren't as good as the originals, how bad would a remake of a *_BAD_* movie be?

[@raypsychodad]

There's little wrong with good movies to improve upon. However with a bad movie you can look at everything that made it poor and try to improve it

This is wHorrywood in it's terminal phase. They can only think of how much money they can embezzle before the end. Yes, embezzle. In Japan Godzilla -1 was made for 15 million, and looks better than any of last year's flop-busters. And also.... have you ever seen Mel Brook's "The Producers"? It sure explains a lot.

[@Molikai]

It's about erisk avoidance. The logic goes: X made lots of money. ERgo, anything like X is a much safer thing to make, as it's more likely t omake more money! (Hence: Why we see big trends) Which descends into: 'Only safe money is maknig previous movies that made money'. Or in other words: Natural consequence of making profit for the shareholders the primary goal of the movie industry.

[@wildjonesey]

Listen gang. I know The Mummy (1999) is a cinematic masterpiece. It’s great and I love it. But I am BEGGING y’all to remember that IT ITSELF IS A REBOOT OF THE MUMMY (1932). The 2017 flick was going to try to harken back to the OG Universal Monster movies from the 30s and 40s. Then Tom Cruise got involved and it became a Tom Cruise Movie. Of course, there were a lot of other things wrong about it (making a billion dollar remake of a movie whose charm was in part due to a low budget) but y’all have got to understand that the legacy of The Mummy didn’t start with Brendan Fraser. It started with Boris Karloff. Put some respect on his name.

If the "Remake" of The Running Man has anything thing at all to do with Stephen King's Novella, it will not be a remake, as the Arnie version had NOTHING to do with the book at all.

I actually think remaking The Burbs as a TV show could be pretty good. They could expand on the creepy/awkward neighbors plot, and do something innovative with multiple episodes (as long as it's well written). Also, Highlander can be great too with Cavill.

[@ThatGuyLondon]

This was my first time hearing about it and I think a series is a great idea..Keke Palmer has great comic timing and handled the serious/comedy balance pretty well in Scream Queens. I'm kinda curious now

[@boyspicegaming]

[@stephenwise]

When a movie is turned into a TV show, it’s an adaptation, not a remake in the literal sense. They take the concept of the movie and expand upon it, which ends up making the TV show its own thing. Many examples of that being done are in the history of television.

[@bullseyecanada]

It has been a long wild thing that is being pushed through despite the fact that nobody wants it. Disney knows this is going to fail, so they are been buying up tickets and seats so their employees can boost up the so called numbers. In fact, the cast and crew are long gone due to constant arguments, which is why they are using GCI in the first place. The people have been set elsewhere as punishment for being ''difficult to work with'''...but there are rumours that the movie could still go through some reshoots.
