Movie mash ups
It’s the festive season, so this will be my last post for the year. So to keep you both amused until 2007, I thought it might be worth experimenting with an open thread.
We have seen a bucketload of sequels and remakes over the last year or so, some of which I have become more than a little irritated over (and I will avoid ranting about The Wicker Man at this point). But the thing is, I don’t have a problem with remakes in themselves - there are cases where someone can take a well known (or not so well known) story, and bring something new and original to it while retaining the essential themes of the original (King Kong and The Fly spring to mind here).
So, what film would you like to see remade, who would direct it, who would star in it and how would it differ from the original?
Enjoy the festive season and have a great 2007.
