I'd like to see "Rescue From Gilligan's Island" redone with Jim Carey as Gilligan, John Goodman as The Skipper, Angelina Jolie as Ginger, Jessica Alba as Maryanne, Christopher Walken as The Professor, Joe Pesci as Thirston Howell III & Annette Bening as Mrs. Howell.

Should be good.

I wil do you one better:  the skipper, gilligan, professor, and mr howell should also be played by smokin hot chicks.   Also, Pam Anderson should be captain of the rescue ship who's crew is the Dallas Cowboy cheerleaders.  Throw Halle Berry as Catwoman in the plot while you are at it.

That would kind of make the fact that they brought more luggage & supplies than they needed for a 3 hour boat ride look a little farfetched, no?

I can't get the image of Walken as the Prof out of my head... THAT would be F-in HILARIOUS!!

I'd like to see a remake of one of my favorite movies from the very early 80's/Late 70's.  The final countdown.  About an aircraft carrier that gets caught up in a storm and ends up back in time on December 6, 1941 and has a chance to stop the pearl harbor attack (has some one sided dogfight scenes between Japanese Zero's and F14's)  Starred Kik Douglass and Martin Sheen, and Charles Durning.

Another favorite 70's movie that I would love to see remade is Capricorn One. 

Also "the philidelphia Experiment"  Michael Pare starred and it was a crappy movie, but the plot is worthy enough to be made into an actual good movie.

I have both of these movies. I like both of them.

I agree, both stories were great.    I love any kind of time travel flick, even the cheesy ones. 


Totally unrelated, but for some reason this one popped in my head, "Twilight's Last Gleaming" with Burt Lancaster. Maybe because of the 70's movie mention & Kirk Douglas?     Great story & I remember seeing it in the theater with my dad. 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twilight%27s_Last_Gleaming

Not sure if I'd list it as a remake though, but I should find it & watch it again since it's been since the 70's since I saw it.

Sink the Bismarck.   

    I'd like to see what new cgi stuff can do with the sea battles.

[Steve P.]

I can't get the image of Walken as the Prof out of my head...

No doubt!!  I see him building a radio out of coconut shells and a piece of wire from  Ginger's sun glasses and a stone from Mrs. Howells , mothers, aunts favorite broach. Of course Gilligan has to rub two palm frawns against the Skippers stomach to create a little electrical power to run the radio... Hahaha..

I would love to see that too.  There are so many stories like that from WWII.  I would pretty much see any film made about anything from WWII.  Such a pivotal time in our history, I am fascinated by it, almost obsessed.....

both good ones, but I would like a different ending actually, where the carrier beats the holy living piss out of the entire japanese fleet and the U.S. gets vaulted 50 years into the future with new techology.

umm... ok... i will stop

i agree, ever since i did a report on the bismarck in highschool, ive been collecting the models, pictures and as much info i can on her, I guess im kinda obessed aas well.  Loved the discovery film where they dove down and found here and the miles of wreckage. and they determined that the germans sank her not the british

[Mike DC]

The original is too awesome, but imagine an all-star  "Great Escape" remake:

Steve McQueen --  Matt Damon
"the Mole" --  Giovani Ribisi

James Garner --   the "thank you for smoking" guy
Donald Pleasance  -- William H. Macy 

Charles Bronson --  Russel Crowe

Mr. X (Attenborough) --  George Clooney

Watch "Dogfights" on the History channel. Not only do they analyitically dissect all the famous plane dogfights and show you phenominal cgi of the view from both cockpits as the battle rages, they are now doing the major sea battles. Just watched the Leyte Gulf episode and it followed the Yamato from her running away at Leyte up to her demise trying to get to Okinawa. And to hear the stories from the guys that are still alive is incredible. The effort to be historically accurate and the rendering of the cgi is jaw-dropping.

They have also done the Hood/Bismarck/hunt and sinking of Bismarck episode. Time well spent.

Not movies for entertainment by a long shot. Just the facts as shown from both sides. Both heroism and blunders are fully portrayed.

I've "probably" seen every documentary on the Bismarck ever made.

Dogfights is good...   it just gets annoying with the commercial breaks.   

Speaking of Yamato... there's a Japanese film from 2005 - Otoko-tachi no Yamato.   I found some clips on utube.
Not US released.  http://youtube.com/watch?v=l-FaVVtjItg

I don't know, but the remake of King Kong was awesome, the part of the plot about making the film,  and jack black was great, and the dinasours, the special effects, kong having more character, that new Kong movie is great,

  hmm, that godzilla movie with the ferris beuler guy, that was crummy, they could do that.

      another great remake, the punisher, first one with dolf was not so good, the last one with travolta and can't remember the stars name, great remake,

      the ending of the legend didn't like, part of it, don't want to ruin movie,   and the ending of man on fire, although both movies are great cept for part of the ending I would change, 

     can't think of that many bad movies have seen in last ten years, there were a lot of bad eighties movies, can't remember much of the nineties,     
  there was a movie, was about greek mythology characters, battle of the titans?  they did sort of clay animation special effects of the creatures,
    there was another movie also like that, a guys name and something adventure, maybe these were in the seventies, they could be remade  with the special effects they have now,

   the poseidon adventure remake was not as good as the old one of course, why try to remake a movie that was a four star movie?

    They should remake movies that were a cool idea but done poorly,   like the incredible hulk, that was crummy,

I've got that on DVD, not a bad flick overall. Mickey Roarke is sure a buff UGLY dude these days..

Christine shouldn't be remade, it should stay the way it is.

Stay the way it is...yes

but a Christine 2 with a different plot same characters.

It could be done.

Yeah, I guess so...but use a 80's & newer car. No killing anymore classics.
Problem is that I can't think of any newer cars that look mean enough to fill the bill.
