Hope to go and see Rogue One this December and I noticed that another remake BEN-HUR is out soon. Not sure why filmmakers want to remake classics, you can never recreate the drama. It looks like the mooted remake of The Dam Busters has also been put on hold, as Stephen Fry was supposed to be writing the screenplay but hasn't mentioned it for two years now. I personally hope they don't make it, the original stands the test of time.

You can rarely recreated the SAME drama as the original, that is why remakes need to do more unique & different things to create their own drama that is impactful in its own level.
The Robocop remake for example gave us the lead but with his mental capacity completely intact unlike in the original which made his bodily destruction arguably even more gut punchingly emotionally impactful. |

3 shows I'm have hopes for...
Westworld - supposed to be a contender for the next big breakout cable program..
Along with: Designated Survivor I'm curious to see how this plays out - only a low level Cabinet member is left to lead the country after a devastating attack . Pitch A female pitcher makes it to the Major Leagues - for the Padres! So this will be interesting on two levels for me: how good does she play, and how much of San Diego will be shown? |

Nocturnal Animals - Amy Adams, Michael Shannon, Jake G & Aaron Taylor Johnson.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=juFmTNbFh8g Christine - Rebecca Hall Based around the on air suicide of reporter Christine Chubbuck https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rjBXSYBnVOI Quote:
According to Recapped pretty much all the female robots get naked. Very pleased Ingrid bolsų berdal will do so. You can see her in the trailer nude shoving one of the technicians. She has a snake tattoo in the show going all the way down her body. |

Various Ghost in the Shell trailers
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IYrdoQAjcww https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tRkb1X9ovI4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v4iduQkrMaY No the terrible remix of the classic theme in that 3rd link likely won't be in the final film. Blade Runner 2049 (directed by the guy who did the incredibly well received Arrival, we seem to be in good hands) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=haXvp8M9Cog Guardians of the Galaxy 2 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CaLNiC-bKHQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wUn05hdkhjM Kong Skull Island (out this week) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=44LdLqgOpjo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PojzkccHH8o Geostorm https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qz8cjvKJLuw Alien Covenant https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H0VW6sg50Pk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=svnAD0TApb8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EkXgRlRao5I Netflix's Bright (Will Smith + Netflix + Gritty Training Day-ish LA police setting + Orcs = Wait what the fuck?) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2SRM1WpVEY4 Paramount has pussy-ed the fuck out of making another Friday the 13th reboot after Rings did poorly money wise and World War Z 2 has been put on Indefinite hiatus. David Gordon Green will direct/write a fresh Halloween sequel to 1981's Halloween 2. Danny Mcbride will co write, they have promised they will not be adding any comedic aspect to it which is their traditional territory. John Carpenter has given his seal of approval on their pitch and will be producing & has stated he is considering scoring it. Stranger Things's Millie Bobby Brown, Super 8's Kyle Chandler & Vera Farmiga will star in Godzilla - King of Monsters directed by Michael Dougherty (Trick 'r Treat / Krampus). It will be a sequel to both Kong Skull Island & the 2014 Godzilla. |
