Do not trigger the holy: 10 films, shooting remakes of which you need to ban forever

Anonim
Titanic

Battered in general, the plot of love in social inequality as not to the vertors - from the "Lady and Tramps" disney to the "Titanic" Cameron. Of course, this plot, perhaps, was not yet so beaten, the "Perchin" film added the death of the main character (after all, for the Happ-End melodram, it is usually obligatory), and you can find fault to casting Kate Winslet, but DiCaprio in the "Titanic" perfectly fit perfectly. No matter how seductively removing the remake of the film, occupying 2 lines in the ranking of the most cash paintings of all time, to recreate this combination of factors, which ensured the success of Cameron, in Cynic 2018, in our opinion, is impossible.

Prestige

In principle, we could not be limited to "prestige" and simply ask the highest forces and Hollywood cones do not even think about shooting remakes of Nolanovsky films in general (except for Dunkirk, which and the film can be called with some stretch) . The charm of "prestige" is in unexpected plot strokes that make the viewer bounce from the chair, and, if all these plot moves are already known, the remake at least somehow intrigue the audience clearly will not be able to. And if it is not an argument for someone, that is, one more thing: abandon the idea of ​​the remake from respect to the memory of the legendary David Bowie.

American history X.

Racism in the 21st century - the topic is very hot, every year (especially in the States) is becoming increasingly acute, and it would seem, then there would be a remake of the cult painting of 1998 with Edward Norton in the lead role. However, in 2018, retell this story again, simply with new actors, it would be stupid - the perception of the theme of racism itself was stupid, and even who replaced the mad, awesome and practically brilliant Norton from the current actors - that another question.

Fight club

Another cult classic and again with Edward Norton in a duet with Brad Pitt. The cult status of the "Fight Club" will restore in advance against those who want to remove the remake of the film, the army of the devotees of the original - and, and if in the picture simply there is nothing to improve and have nothing to change, why then take a remake?

Gladiator

What a historical drama, what today do not remove - just because modern Hollywood is overly carried away with CGI, computer effects, "visual", and in the "gladiator" by the efforts of Ridley Scott and Russell Crowe the main ones were still not spectacular gladiator fights, but human emotions . You can fly on the arena of dirty sweaty men as you like, and the "gladiator" will forever remain one-sole.

Back to the Future

Although the cult trilogy "Back to the Future" a few years ago noted the thirtieth anniversary, the fans still have so much that any attempt to remove the remake will automatically be regarded as an attempt to prove on the classics. Robert Zedekis, who shot the trilogy, shares this position completely: Back in 2015, the director said that while he was alive (and while the screenwriter "Back to the future" Bob Gale live), the remreek would not be. Zedekis is in complete seriousness to prevent and block all attempts to remove the remake - and we fully support it.

Lord of the Rings

It would seem that 2018, when computer technologies allow you to create ambitious special effects, it's time to try to revise the "Lord of the Rings" to make battles even more ambitious, and the world of Mediterranean is even more fabulous. In fact, they swam, we know: you will not be filled with expensive special effects and a beautiful picture, perfectly showed the "Hobbit" trilogy of the same Peter Jackson. The audience understands perfectly when the film is removed only to "eliminate" more money - and the remake of the "Lord of the Rings", as the "Hobbit" showed, not to deceive them.

Start

Unique, distinctive and not similar to any, another blockbuster Christopher Nolana does not need any improvements - although it would be possible to argue that compared with 2010 the technology was significantly stepped forward and a number of scenes from the film (for example, a folding Paris) can It would be even more spectacular. Well, firstly, how the effect of "folding" skyscrapers with modern technologies looks like, we were shown in "Dr. Strendge" Marvel at the end of 2016, and secondly, in the "beginning" the case is not at all in entertainment, but in an unusual story , repeat which is definitely there is no need.

Apostate

The "apostates" of Martin Scorsese, who came out in 2006 - this is already a remake (shot in Hong Kong in 2002 of the criminal thriller). It is impossible to argue with the fact that the speed version is much better - at least thanks to the star acting with the participation of Dicaprio, Matt Damon, Jack Nicholson and Mark Wahlberg. Remove the remake of the remorse - simply stupid, and even recreate such a talented caster is unlikely to succeed, not to mention the fact that in the further improvement of the "apostates" do not need to do not need.

The matrix

Even before Christopher Nolan began to break the viewers of the brain with his films, we had a "matrix" - and let the second and third films of the trilogy turned out, on whose glance, worse, the status of the "matrix" is definitely not going and not challenge. As - and most importantly, why - to recreate something so revolutionary for the world of cinema, both from the point of view of the visual component, and from the point of view of the plot - the question for which we cannot answer exactly, and is hardly the answer has the Warner Bros., which is For several years already in the background, it is trying to work on "rebut". According to the last rumors, the film will be the remake of the "matrix", and not a continuation of the series, and the main role is going to invite the dark-skinned actor - Most likely, Michael B. Jordan from Crea and Black Panther.
