As much as I hate the remake scene ad nauseum.... I will probably check it out if I get the time. Key word being time... :needcoffee:

If not, I won't cry if I have to see it at home.

The time between remakes is getting smaller.

Those awful Tobey Maguire SpiderMan movies just stopped playing on pay channels and they already made a new one.

Now that the MAN OF STEEL final trailer is out, I guess it's time for them to finish the cutting room job on the film and start on the REMAKE.

Ugh.

Hey, Batman has been off the map for a few days, let's have another Remake Trilogy with some slightly younger brooding dude than Christian Bale. THE BATMAN starring that guy who plays Eric on TrueBlood coming this fall.

'Bought time for another quality BIG MOMMA movie too. Just do a remake and replace Martin Lawrence with Keenan Thompson.

Part of the reason you see things like the Spider-Man movie situation, is because the studio involved, Sony in Spider-Man's case, is obligated to have a film in production by a certain date, or the rights revert back to their owners.

Sony wanted to retain the rights, so they made a movie. They were forced to make a reboot, because Sam Raimi and Tobey MacGuire et al had decided they didn't want to be involved in any more Spider-Man movies.

It could be worse.

In 1986, a German movie production company called Neue Constantin signed a right agreement with Marvel that gave them the rights to make a movie based on the characters The Fantastic Four.

Neue Constantin attempted for a several years to get the film off the ground, but failed. In 1992, unless Neue Constantin could get a FF movie into production, they would have lost the rights option, and would have lost all the money they had spent in the project to that point.

They called in Roger Corman, the King Of Schlock. Corman began principal photography on The Fantastic Four, just two days before the rights deadline, on a budget of $1MM.

Now, in 1992, a million bucks to make a movie was nothing. It was less than nothing, and as a result the film was... well, crap.

Thankfully, Neue Constantin had never really intended to release the film, and in the end, it never saw the light of day in any meaningful way.

Legend says Marvel's executive in charge of feature films at the time, Avi Arad, bought the Corman film for $2MM, and had every known print destroyed. At least one print is known to have survived, and you can sometimes grab a copy at various comic conventions.

Eventually, Neue Constantin became Constantin Films, and entered into a deal that saw the production and release of a genuine Fantastic Four movie in 2005.

Here's how bad things can get...
