Hollywood has officially run out of ideas

If I choose to waste my time on any of these, I will be doing it courtesy of Sidereel.com.  I mean, seriously, the majority of those movies weren't even that good to begin with.  Movie stars are going to have to start annoying side projects like handbag lines and making albums of Johnny Cash covers because they're not going to make enough money from movies.  Can't wait for those new shoes designed by Eddy Murphy.

I wouldn't mind seeing a few of those.  I'd probably only pay to see 2 or 3 though.

I only see Starship Troopers on that list.

The Mummy one will likely be the only one I'll be watching.  I haven't seen the first ones for the Transporter and Crank, but maybe those too eventually.


And this one's another list from that website: http://www.denofgeek.com/movies/15211/38_planned_movie_remakes_you_didnt_know_about.html  The majority of the films here are worse than the page Chelsey linked IMO.  Tho' I agree that Witches needs to be remade since it wasn't made right the first time.

Holy Freakin' God.

I don't want it to be easy, I want it to be right.

Ohhhhh..... The Shadow needs a remake. That movie was bad and the character was so cool.

From this list I'd be game for:
 The Shadow
Starfighter ( I loved The Last Starfighter.)
Knight Rider (Glad the series didn't take off. Ugh.)
Conan The Barbarian (Althought the first one was pretty damn good.)
Logan’s Run
Tron (HELLS YEAH!!!)
Clash of the Titans
and
Dune (I'll likely be way over critical of this one, more so then I was of Indy 4.)


And no Wizard of Oz on that list....which is good cause I've still been working on that Screenplay off and on.

Are they just taking every movie from the 80s and remaking it?  I'd go see a new Footloose though.  I fucking love that movie.

Someone should remake "Valley of the Dolls".  The book is awesome but the movie was completely off in every aspect.  Not to mention the fact that the majority of the book couldn't be portrayed in the movie.
