| Topic | Which movie remake/revision destroyed your childhood the most? |
| Gynthaeres 07/25/17 7:38:33 PM #32: | None "destroyed my childhood", the originals are there, and the remake is generally considered bad and forgettable. If you're asking which of those movies is the biggest disgrace to the originals? Ghostbusters 2016, definitely. They turned a drama/horror/comedy movie into a pure comedy movie that fired off 20 jokes a minute. And none of them would land. Worse, rather than do something smart, like "These are the new Ghostbusters, an off-shoot of the original branch, launching in a new city!" which would've made the transition more palatable, they just totally rebooted the franchise. But with none of the original characters. Just rebooted the idea and name, which is... weird. Like rebooting Friday the 13th without Jason, or the TMNT with four new Turtles, no Leo, no Don. Other than Ghostbusters, I guess I'd vote for Robocop. I didn't think it was a band standalone movie, but they just... changed a lot, without reason. Like new edgy armor, rather than the classic. And I hated the idea that it was a computer doing all of the fighting, rather than Robocop himself -- he just thought he was fighting. --- The sole purpose of this space is to make my post look longer. ...
