How about a remake of Plan 9 from Outer Space? Only this time all the SFX are cheap CGI, the acting is more leaden than the original, they cram in an 'important message', there's a whole horde of flesh-eating zombies, and the authorities are just plain evil-stupid in best bad SyFy Original tradition for reasons that never get explained.

Oh wait!

I also hear someone's planning a remake of Forbidden Planet in which the Krell will still be around, they made the Id Monster just to be lol evul, and Morbius is their cringing flunky.

EDIT: Apparently the Forbidden Planet movie will be a trilogy (because that worked great for The Hobbit), Straczynski's been tapped for the script, and James Cameron's in line to direct. Thoughts?

I didn't care for the original Forbidden Planet (maybe just because of the Freudian message), but James Cameron makes some pretty good movies. Then again, just because I'm a huge fan of Tim Burton doesn't mean every single one of his movies is a winner, either. *shrug*

An animated version of Glengarry, Glen Ross where all the characters are talking mice.

I'm picturing that in my head, and for some reason I'm seeing the CGI hellscape backdrops from "300" instead of an office...

"Put. The cheese. Down. Cheese is for closers."

"Who is this guy?"

"I'm here from Mickey and Minnie. I'm here on a mission of mercy. Your name's Fievel?"

"Yeah."

"You call yourself a salesmouse, you..."

*and so forth; it pretty much writes itself*

Reminds me of the remake they did of Reefer Madness. Too self aware, forced camp, and none of the innocent charm of the original. Not even Kristen Bell made it enjoyable.


An aspiring filmmaker learns the Ultimate Secrets of movie plot-beats to make a moderately-successful, mediocre film that's more-or-less like every other film in the theatres in Save the Cat: The Movie.

I like that it's subtitled "The last book on screenwriting you'll ever need!" and there are two more books in the series afterwards.

It reminds me of a video breakdown that Freehold would have liked, if I could find it again. The person did a breakdown of Michael Bay's techniques, then took examples of how the director of Battleship tried to imitate his style and technically did all the exact same stuff... but didn't do it right, because he didn't seem to understand why the shots were composed they way they were. I can't seem to find the video though, some college film students youtube channel, so it doesn't get a lot of hits.

edit: a couple more searches, found it.

Someone did a remake of Reefer Madness? For pity's sake, why?

As a musical, no less.

I think their intent was to take the unintentionally comedic film and remake it as a tongue in cheek satire.

They failed.

How about a remake of 'Showgirls', done as animation? Starring the characters from My Little Pony:Friendship is Magic?

Showponies?

I feel like that would make money. I also feel like I need to go wash with disinfectant.

Alright, once Fox signs over the rights to X-men, we can give it a razzle dazzle it by combining it with another Disney franchise.....X=Pooh!

We could have Cybear, Professor Robbin, Nightbunny, and Tigerrine!

No, Who Framed Roger Rabbit? or Coolworld style IMO. Mix animation and live action.

Imagine the pool scene with a thrashing, animated Twilight Sparkle and a live action human actor. Let's say Val Kilmer.

With a cameo by Yakoff Smirnoff who helpfully offers: "In Soviet Union, finger pulls you!"

*face palms as he realizes this has been greenlit and rushed through to post-production in time it takes him to type post*

and to cash in on the success of Logan and Deadpool, is a hard R rating wise for graphic violence and language.

Animal Planet/Food Network cross-over reality contest series...


Josh Harnett and Rob Schneider in Biodome 2. Just cause they are stuck in a bubble doesn't mean they wont start trouble.


How about they remake the classic American-International Pictures 'Poe' movies by Roger Corman, but replace Vincent Price with Adam Sandler?

Or they could redo the Hammer Dracula films but this time the Count is a Twilight sparklepire.


All of the spaghetti westerns Clint Eastwood did starring ... Scott Eastwood.

Maybe I'm instinctively softpedaling after the atrocity that was Sissyl's suggestion.


Fair.


Score!

Dead, he's still a better actor than Rob Schneider though. Plus for the making of, you get a whole bunch of Weekend At Bernie's style extras.


When I heard about a dead body eventually noticed on an airplane, I thought it was a new Weekend at Bernies movie.

Go to inspiration.

The crossover you never imagined. Tarzan Vs. Predator at the Earth's Core... with Adam Sandler playing Tarzan!

Adam Sandler reboots Look Who's Talking.. as both the Father and the voice of the baby.

For bonus points, the baby is entirely CG like in the Twilight films.
