Couldnt find this important thread with the filter. So which movies would you like to see rebooted? ;)

Perhaps, next time, search for the more commonly referred-to with movies term 'remake'?
- Perhaps! ;) That thread was 5 years ago!! Time for a reboot of the remakes!inv
- oh, shit - so it is.. I thought this was the newer one!detritus
- Reboot is the new cool word for remake, btw...

One of my goals in life is to purchase the rights to the "Breakin'" movies and reboot the franchise. Look for "Breakin' 3 - The Dylectical Synergy" sometime in the next ten years. I'm totally serious.

Wouldnt a reboot mean that you would start all over again - with Breakin 1 (the beginning, first chapeter, aka the breakin begins)?

Not necessarily. While my idea is really a total reboot inside and out, I'd argue that "Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo" is very much remembered in the pop conciousness and carries a certain "brand equity" if you will. Therefore, "Breakin' 3" might carry a certain level of anticipation and audience excitement/amusement rather than just a straight "Breakin'."

clearly all original ideas have been done i guess. i'd like to see new films, not uninspired rehash.

Maybe just reintroducing the concept of movies that focus on decent story/script and inspired acting would be nice. I'm not really big on movies, though, honestly.

I watched "Vanishing Point" last week. Been in my top ten list of fav films for years. I was telling one of the younger guys here about the film and I wondered if it had been remade and turns out it had.
The original is about a guy who's delivering a car and just racing with the police for the hell of it. So .... mindless racing! :)
Turns out in the remake they gave him a reason for racing - he was racing to get to his wife who was in troubled labour.In the original film he also stops at a christian camp to blag some petrol. In the newer one he seemingly stops at an indian reservation and reflects on his life or what he's doing?
Friggin nonsense!
They shouldn't touch old classics like this.Can safely say i'll NEVER watch the remake of this. lol.
