Movie Originals vs. Remakes! (Ft. Steve Zaragoza) | ReactCAST

[@sarahpettipher1759]

I think Hollywood forgets that some of the best franchises started off with low budget. The way I look at a remakes such as the first Plant of the Apes now, is just as if they are a parody, it’s much more enjoyable that way. I have to be elevated though, lol💚

[@patriciaunderwood1167]

This was an awesome episode. You guys could have gone on for hours and I'd be here for every second.

[@Mikura39]

I knew I wasn’t going to agree with their opinion on Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Sure, bias is a big play here since I watched that one first growing up and haven’t seen the OG yet. But I think it’s overhated. (Also, the original author hated the OG while Tim Burton’s version is more accurate to the book) I genuinely love the film! Me and my little sister love to rewatch it a lot. It’s a comfort movie for us.

[@GeminiWolfstarGaming]

To correct Steve, The Absent Minded Professor didn't star Jerry Lewis, it was Fred MacMurray. I grew up watching it a ton! They also made a sequel to it called Son of Flubber, which isn't as good, but it's a fun little romp.

[@AndrewJ]

We need a part 2 of this with the same guys but different movie conversations.

[@danagunn2693]

Sadly, Harold Ramis passed away in early 2014 so there was no way he could have appeared in the reboot. And Afterlife is 100% a sequel.

[@sammylane21]

The second Jumanji movie with THE ROCK isn't a remake, it is indeed a sequel because it tells us Allen was there, it's just separate from the original but it is a sequel.

[@APhizzle]

That was the best intro song so far

[@beckicrook1300]

Probably the absolutely BEST intro song to date!

[@PhoenixWillow81]

The new Jumanji movies are not remakes they are dedicated sequels. I wish people would realize that lol

[@dionshare7103]

Yes absolutely.

[@donjohnson6447]

Is Jumanji Welcome to The Jungle really a remake, or is it a sequel? They make reference to Robin Williams character, Alan Parrish, already being in Jumanji.

[@timisme8360]

I'm usually one for leaving things the way they were. I love the original planet of the apes series. I grew up with it from when I was a kid. That being said, I enjoyed the remakes more. I have both the original series and all of the remakes on DVD and I have to admit, I watch the new versions more often. This may be the only time when I say any remake is better.

[@saareyland9465]

This is a podcast I didn't even know I needed but I LOVE this. Finally hearing other people say the things about these movies I've been thinking about too. I'm from Belgium and not many people are that invested in these kinds of films or just don't appreciate the originals enough and the nostalgia around it, so they automatically love sequels and prequels and reboots. Man, finally something getting off my chest and feeling like I'm not alone with these thoughts about these movies.

[@ashleyjudd9741]

Steve and Joe working together again Yay.I miss the old days of Table talk and Smosh Summer and Winter games

[@buddah1221]

the new Jumanji movies are sequels not remakes

[@AshlieJermaine]

They seem to be conflating "remake" and "sequel" or "reboot"

[@rahjahknows]

Ahh all the little bits, callbacks, and the music intro bring me back to the SourceFed TableTalk days, always fun to see Steve, Joe, and Kevin on a podcast together. And Jaxon's energy meshes so well

[@dozer11]

Id argue it’s better that the new Dune movies didn’t show how the village got onto the worm. Not everything has to be explained. And too many people today need everything shown or explained.

[@efrons79]

When Stee comes back, let him have a Stream Deck™ to play his own sounds

[@derekrubis6652]

You forgot the Disney Remakes of “The Parent Trap”, “Freaky Friday”, & “The Love Bug”

[@mtwice4586]

I freaking love Steve Z. Santa Steve is one of my favorite characters of all time.

[@GeminiWolfstarGaming]

One of my favorite remakes that wasn't covered is the 70s remake of the 1950s cult classic Invasion of the Body Snatchers. I've watched both versions, and while I really like the original, I love the 70s remake.

[@joyjohnson8776]

I love this lineup, Joe all day everyday baby. I am big on original movies because of the nostalgia

[@markclemente1503]

I personally LOVED Wonka. It's not for everyone but I really enjoyed it.

[@BBYVIC650]

THANK YOU SO SO MUCH FOR POSTING IN THE AM💕💕💕

[@saraharrison1552]

love to see steve and joe together again i miss source fed

[@YoGurlShanilla]

I WAS WAITING FOR ZATHURA TO BE MENTIONED LOL

[@EriKaV81509]

Would love to hear you all talk about the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

[@JoeAlonsy]

So… we’re getting more STEEEEEVVVE on some other episodes on the channels w/ Joe right? 👀

[@Grimmster98]

Joe's Singing Skills are giving me Jack Black-Vibes 😎🤘🏻

[@dark-vision]

Ah it was nice to see Steve again. #SourceFed

[@FunRageDIE]

god dam i really miss sourcefed , maybe we could do a SF reacts mini series?

[@mtwice4586]

Sourcefed was such a good time. The amount of talent that came out of there is insane.

[@jasonfortune2551]

Lynch's Dune ('84) is unironically one of my favourite movies of all time (and I'm not even a Dune guy). I just love that movie.

[@maymaymay3701]

After reading chocolate factory with the kids, I realized Burton's vision was sofaithful to the book, but the Gene Wilder version was just a good movie where the characters had the same names LMAOOOOO

[@darkangelholz]

I missed a word from Anthony this time around. Great work on the theme song all of you xxx

[@Scottishgirl0830]

This is my favorite intro so far!! Bilbo baggins table banging to the making movies song! It was great!! More of these 3 please!!

[@brianstites3761]

I saw the original Hobbit cartoon as a kid.

[@katstorm13]

I have it on VHS lol.

[@brianstites3761]

@@katstorm13 I had that. As well as the SECRET OF NYM.

[@Kaylaw9]

The crow remake had me PISSED

[@Zelma406]

I did not like the all female Ghostbusters movie I felt it was a big flop, but the new Ghostbusters, where there’s a continuation with the grandkids I freaking adore! Because it’s not a reboot I think the only reboots that I enjoyed was parent trap and freaky Friday because Jamie Lee Curtis she’s amazing. I’ll watch anything she’s in. Now for the lion King I totally agree with all your sentiments, but when I went to the movie theater just recently to watch the new Beetlejuice movie, which I loved there was a thing for a new lion King, but it was based off of Mufasa when he was a cub. And it made me actually feel really sad because James Earl Jones had just passed away like a week prior to that. So I can honestly say I don’t know if I will watch Mufasa.

[@mitchlacasse361]

a remake they should not have done: Footloose

[@jinetjimenezpenalopez1855]

I was enjoying so much the guitar playing and singing of the three of them, 😍. I was bopping my head along with everything. This should all be done on every podcast episode, 👍🏻🫶🏻💕❤️.

[@jimhoyt5]

Harold Ramis died in 2014. All the others in original cast made cameos in the 2016 film except Rick Moranis who has retired from acting.

[@avasamaria]

32:42 I love Joe.

[@TheInfo45]

Big mistake on the flubber reference. Fred MacMurray who played in the absent-minded professor Jerry Lewis played in The nutty professor

[@cruthius6154]

The nutty professor also had a remake done with Eddie Murphy

[@anthonydean1743]

I don't consider the newer Jumanji a remake, it is a sequel.

[@KyleWillLivingston]

Yeah same

[@nateschmall8873]

I hate how people screw it up....Jumanji is NOT a remake but a continuation

[@BenjiSun]

Toy Story ; Directed by, John Lasseter ; Screenplay by. Joss Whedon · Andrew Stanton · Joel Cohen · Alec Sokolow

[@DanFromHali]

I like the idea of the Remake, you know. I know a lot of people think of the, "Well the original is just so good, why would you remake it?" But like, when I was young, my Dad used to sit me down and watch movies from the 60's and 70s or even earlier. Real cheesy stuff, bad production... but it might have been huge at the time. And I hated it. And I mean, I was nagging on some real classics. But the thing is, from the weird oddly fake green screen backdrops, to the bad effects, corny dialogue, outdated aesthetic... I just couldn't. Now, if I I see a remake of something I grew up with a couple of decades ago, the animation just doesn't hold up, the effects are choppy. Sure I still love them, but I can see a world where the modern day audience won't watch them. So when a studio makes a remake, it's not just to remake an old property. It's to sell their back catalogue too. And while that's greedy, the film fan inside of me is thinking... Man, this is going to get people to go back and watch these originals and see exactly what they're missing. And obviously I'm talking mostly about good remakes, like It. But even bad ones. It sucks that the remake is garbage, but if you're online looking at reviews and comments about The Crow, and its leading you to Alex Proyas... That's not a waste of time in my opinion.

[@mattbrock7031]

The Wonka movie was awesome. It has soo much heart. You guys are on crack with that one.

[@timisme8360]

You forgot to mention 101 Dalmatians. That was one remake that I actually liked. Glenn Close captured Cruella Deville perfectly in that movie.

[@Giant_Killer33]

I like both Of the theme songs, but I think the first one they did with all of them

[@MatthewSchellGaming]

They kind of remade "Quest for Fire", it's called "Sasquatch Sunset". I haven't seen either but seems like same premise.

[@GeminiWolfstarGaming]

Some of my favorite movies are literally courtroom dramas. The original 12 Angry Men, Runaway Jury, Rules of Engagement, to name a couple.

[@briantieken6718]

The two main actors of Last Starfighter have said that the original director still has plans to do a sequel.

[@katstorm13]

Wow I had no idea he co wrote Escape from New York. Starfighter is just so 80's to me I can't picture it in modern times.

[@brandytaylor1986.]

lol the beginning of video cracked me up lol that was a banger

[@Running_The_Shadows]

What's in the box, Joe? What's in the box?

[@GeminiWolfstarGaming]

I'm loving when it's not just Joe doing the theme song! Excellent guitar from Steve, and Jaxon's background harmonies were perfection!

[@alexandervonheereman6168]

Matt Damon explained very well why the movie industry is the way it is now on his Hot Ones episode. The clip is flying around the web. I recommend looking it up.

[@GeminiWolfstarGaming]

I really, really like David Lynch's movies, so the original Dune I really love. I have not seen the remakes, but I am very, very curious of them.

[@GeminiWolfstarGaming]

I 100% agree with Joe about the newer Jumanji movies. They are so much fun, and the whole cast acts their butt off to make them as funny as they are.

[@jeffdaigle5487]

My favorite intro by far!!!! Mad props 👍👍. You guys jammed out for sure. Should make that a short to watch please. * Sorry but i agree. I didn't like the remake crow.

[@kalanil3805]

even though it went by a different name i still say Avatar was better when it was FernGully

[@buddah1221]

avatar was just live action ferngully

[@orangemushroomslayer]

Jungle book was amazing though

[@DC90]

'Americas Caveman' Ron Perlman

[@destructo2300]

Omg Steve with Joe. We need to add Maude #SouceFed

[@GeminiWolfstarGaming]

With as much passion as he conveys for movies, I think I'd get along with Steve well enough.

[@smalltownfamadventuresmore5109]

I'm a 86 baby. My 6 yr old daughter loves Ghostbusters like me. I hated the female ghostbusters movie. We love the new Ghostbusters too we saw them in the theater. I remember acting like I was asleep on the couch in the living room but watching IT on TV when i was a kid - i guess it's nostalgic to me. I think the 2017 IT was good but the chapter 2 was 💩. I don't care to see Dune movies and never seen any Star Wars movies I think i would fall asleep. my 6 yr old loves Jaws. i'm forsure boring nowadays hollywood would CGI that up now. I love the Planet of the Apes 2011, 2014, 2017. me and my mom, my kids went to see the new one in the theater and it was not great.

[@MaireGraves]

HOW DARE YOU…”Flubber” is AMAZING!!!

[@Dakotaen]

Puh-lease bring Kevin Smith onto the podcast to discuss... Well, anything. The guy will talk about movies all day, AND he has a movie out right now that I'm sure he'd love to promote. 😃

[@S3xXxyD1nKz]

They forgot to mention so many other Disney Live action Remakes- Alice In Wonderland Peter Pan 101 Dalmatians Pete’s Dragon and (technically) Maleficent

[@PetyrinaJaye]

Hahaaaaaa what an excellent way to start the episode! That’s as fantastic! 😂❤❤❤❤

[@Magick51]

If weren't for Tim Curry the remake wouldn't have happened. So you're welcome, I still think Tim Curry's adaptation of Penny Wise was an awesome alien space demon clown.

[@GeminiWolfstarGaming]

Between Steve, Joe and Kevin how many times was the soap dropped in prison? 😆

[@timisme8360]

I agree with Joe completely about Jumanji. Completely different animals, each good in its own way.

[@stscypollard2376]

I don't go by what the critics or other people say about the movies that came out or coming out because everybody has a different opinion on what is good or bad. However, I have to see them for myself to know if it's good or not.

[@thebird1987]

What is this? SourceFed?

[@buddy1397]

just want to say even though Jumangi welcome to the jungle is tecnicly a remake it acually a sequal cause when you meet Nick johnas's caracter its in a holuse made by robin wiliams character

This Mini Sourcefed Reunion

[@bryonyamada2620]

OG Planet of the Aps as a Court room drama. LOL Never heard it in that context, but he is not wrong. When it comes to OG AoP. Watch the 1st and 3rd. SKIP the 2nd.

[@mirayoon1992]

For Johnny depp's wonka, it's not bad> I heard Johnny and Tim said they're following the book version of Wonka. I only like these parts: While Johnny's wonka is meaner than gene's, he has quotable lines. I mostly like what they did with oompah loompah songs and the story between Wonka and his father. For Gene's wonka, I only like Pure imagination. Timothee's wonka is better since it has more magic

[@lupesanchez5510]

Congratulations on 50k You guys made amazing breakfast fir you employees/family it all looked delicious and I don't eat breakfast I would of eaten the parfait 💜

[@malanisuewheeler8092]

About Dune. My age group 50’s. Many of us read Dune first. The we saw the”the O.G. Dune. Will remember the o.g. Because it came from something we read in high school. Very cool at the time. We appreciate the newer version because it’s more understandable then the o. G..

[@jefftucker975]

Highlander (original) was a good movie, but to modify the catch phrase "there should have been only one"...

[@jeffdaigle5487]

No one can ever replace gene wilder in Wonka. Im sorry but no!!!!

[@tomglunt7483]

The animated hobbit was outstanding. Why I read the series.

[@laurabailey1054]

I remember going to see Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory when I was 5 with my mum when we lived in Toronto. The all women’s Ghostbusters was horrible! The continuation of the original Ghostbusters was great because you could relate to the next generation continuing on from the originals and we got the original cast in it too. The homage to Ramis was brilliant. I was in high school when Ghostbusters came out and I took a kid I was babysitting to see it and he was about 8 at the time and he thought it was cool and wasn’t afraid Jaxon. Charleton Heston was the man in the disaster movies in the 70’s except for the Poseidon Adventure that he wasn’t in.

[@GeminiWolfstarGaming]

Disney hit a lull after Walt Disney passed away, which was during the making of The Jungle Book, so as a result during the 70s and into the 80s (their darkest era in movie-making), they struggled to keep the magic going. It wouldn't be until The Little Mermaid came out in 1989 that Disney finally regained the magic they once had before.

[@jodimyers410]

43:42 Charlie and the Chocolate Factory is the ONLY Johnny Depp movie I don’t like. It was creepy af. My son was a toddler and we took him to the theater when it came out and we had to leave bc he was so disturbed by it. We only made it about 20 mins in. 😅

[@timisme8360]

The original willie wonka and the chocolate factory will hold number one place in my heart forever. Charlie and the chocolate factory? No Bueno!

[@BenjiSun]

The cast of Feig's Ghostbusters was great. Paul Feig was the entirety of the problem with it. Some of the one-liners were great. Melissa McCarthy and Leslie Jones were very competent in their delivery and there's no faulting McKinnon and Wiig, Hemsworth could've dialed it back just a little but it was the writing that was horrible, not him. The issue is Paul Feig made a crappy movie that depended on one liners like his Freaks and Geeks. He has one decent comedy to his name, and that was Bridesmaids, and that again was only great because of the very competent cast. TL;DR Paul Feig sucks and should not be allowed to handle other beloved IPs.

[@trinitybernhardt9944]

Oh no... lost me as soon as I heard the 90s It hate. The movies were good, but i am a 90s It girl for life.

[@toodlescae]

they dont even talk about the original disneu remake 101 dalmations

[@malanisuewheeler8092]

Just super great show today.

[@ChrissaTodd]

how is ghostbusters afterlife a remake wouldn't a remake be the same movie but different people :P ghost busters afterlife isn't that :P

[@laurabailey1054]

It isn’t.

[@Liz_SKZ-4]

In my opinion that Brandon Lee will forever be forever be the only Eric Draven. To me the originals of all the remakes are the best. I never watched the remake of IT, but the clips I saw, was better than the original. The remake Snow White looks scary af!

[@jomc6734]

This is going to be a lot. Regarding It - the original starring Tim Curry as Pennywise was a 2 part TV movie, not a theatrical release. There's a lot you can do in a 2017 that you couldn't do on 1990s TV. It's interesting that they are criticizing Timothee Chalamet and Zendaya for 'not' disappearing into roles when Tom Cruise has made doing the exact same thing for 40 years. Also Dune didn't inspire Game of Thrones. The Wars of the Roses inspired GoT. Also, there isn't a remake of Jumanji. The reality is there don't seem to be any new ideas in the entertainment industry. They make a movie based on a book. Then make a musical of the movie and then a movie of the musical that was based on a movie.

[@TruePerception]

12:20 You forgot Maleficent and Cruella

[@neilfleming2787]

if you knew the book 'The Hobbit' then the movies were a poc. Way too much made out of nothing just to spread it to three movies.

[@Shalaina_Exit13]

The Incredible Journey. I vote ORIGINAL!
