Martini Sigil Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 I'm hard pressed to think of many reboots/remakes that *have* worked.... the Fugitive, for sure...after Tim Burton's failure, the new Planet of the Apes franchise is a hit... Dredd was terrific... but overall, the batting average is terrible... it makes one wonder what drives any studio to keep throwing money at these doomed to fail projects...

Liver and Onions Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 Well, I'm enjoying the new Voltron show. So reboots/reimagining in and of themselves aren't automatically bad. I think everyone here has nailed it, though- you can tell when something is a lazy, uninspired cash-in versus someone who actually has something new to add to a mythology that inspired them.

They control the rights to these properties and don't have to pay out any royalties so, it's cheaper form them to keep pushing out the reboots, Also given the high cost and financial risk of producing movies , make electives reluctant to take chance with anything new.
