Scenes from the 2018 remake of The Beverley Hillbillies.

I agree that's part of their decision making process, but if that was the only reason for the remakes they would just make insanely cheap movies that fulfill the legal requirements to extend the trademarks but have no chance of making (or losing) much money, wouldn't they?

Every single one? Even Education For Death?

This is purely about Disney needing to Reset all their property Trademarks. They need to remake every property they have in order for the licensing to remain intact and not fall into Public Domain.

They are doing this for every singe animated move they've made.

Just when a fella' gets tired of remakes of remakes on the big screen and tv, and thinks the well of fresh ideas in arts and performance are all used up or just aren't inspiring any more, something like this comes along. Even at more than 5 minutes in length, it holds you until the very end, which is something in these days of instant gratification and click click click click . All this, and an initially unexpected choice of music that wound up really complimenting the dancers. Nicely done.

Why did they feel they needed to remake this...?
Jim Carey already killed it!!

The rare remake that's better than the original.

I believe I've commented several (million) times, that I'm not sure how much I'd pay for a HD remake of TIE Fighter, but it's a lot.

Good for him. His remake still strikes me as amateurish and unoriginal as his red font but whatever pays the rent.

Gotta say I liked the original more; it was more understated than this remake (well, aside from its metal take on the Imperial March theme ;-). The lack of dialogue was one of its strengths, and that's lost in this "remaster".

Only two official videos from Shout at the Devil (original) were Looks that Kill and Too Young to Fall in Love. In '97 they did a video for the remake of Shout at the Devil.

IE, this is fanmade.

It was definitely dumbed down thematically though, especially from 1st/2nd GiG. While they were pretty pretentious (e.g. 'second order simulacra'), at least they were full of things to think about. The whole 'give consent' theme was as far as I can tell introduced in the adaptation and immensely cringe inducing.

What also irritated me is how they created a weird mish mash of the seperate Ghost in the Shell stories for no good reason. Why did they have to combine the 2nd GiG antagonist with the original movie's key plot scenes? It was just strange and unnecessary.

I don't at all mind the westernisation / white lead. Felt that controversy was nonsense. It's a Hollywood adaptation, why even bother remaking it if you're not going to have a new take on it or adapt it to be more familiar to local (American / English) audiences?

Same thing with the Netflix Death Note adapation. No idea if it will actually be any good but couldn't care less that they moved the location to the US and made the lead characters white. There are already multiple Japanese live action Death Note movies with Japanese leads. What's the point in another?

I've said it before, i'll say it again - all women films are fine, all women remakes are fine, but for god's sake let it not be this tokenistic gesture of bullshit.

This wasn't done because it was a good idea. How do i know? Because a ghostbuster remake at this point wasn't a good idea. If you think otherwise name the 4-person cast, women and/or men, that would make this a good idea.

We're not ready for a ghostbusters remake, but i imagine a lot of shrewd businessmen in hollywood saw a gilt-edged opportunity in the booming equality scene and Ghostbusters scripts were being floated at the time. Not done for any good reason; done for money. And now this will be cited as to why female led films don't succeed.

People so easily forget about the aliens franchise. Potentially one of the biggest franchises. All of them have been female led (Noomi Rapace, Sigourney Weaver, Winona Ryder) in a genre that is barren of other successful examples, and it was originally written for a man.

So - when decent people see the right actress for the right role performing quality material, you get successful female led films. You don't say "let's remake something but they're all women lol." It's something that natural and happens when those at the top are blind to gender - that's what you need to sort out, but they throw a few breadcrumbs "here, make a boil-in-the-bag all woman film" and we look the other way.

I feel lost in a world of extremes, where equality is that we split up and write ALL WOMEN films and ALL MEN films and never the twain shall meet, and we argue over which are more successful. I guess it's like our evolution through racism all over again; we're using segregation to solve an equality problem? And some who claim to be egalitarians cheer it on!
