#78 - REMAKES and RELAUNCHES - The Good, the Bad, and the Unnecessary
Manage episode 458194135 series 2874124
In this episode of the WN Movie Talk Podcast, we take a closer look at Hollywood’s enduring obsession with remakes, reboots, and revivals. Why do some projects, like Mission: Impossible, thrive while others, such as RoboCop and An American Werewolf in Paris, fail to recapture the magic of their originals? We’ll explore the history of the remake, the catalysts for each new wave of remake, the creative challenges of reimagining iconic films and analyse what happens when these efforts miss the mark.
From David Fincher, The Coen Brothers, Martin Scorsese and James Cameron, we discuss how top-tier directors approach remakes and why even their best efforts can sometimes falter. We also dig into the comedic missteps of Blues Brothers 2000, the nostalgic success of Beetlejuice 2, and the differences between adaptation and homage in films like William Friedkin’s Sorcerer.
Whether it’s the long-running success of Mission: Impossible, or the reasons behind the failures of films like Poltergeist and The Hitcher, this episode is packed with insights, trivia, and plenty of movie nostalgia.
If you’ve ever wondered what makes a great remake—or why some seem doomed from the start—this episode is for you. Don’t forget to rate us on your favourite podcast platform and join the conversation on our Facebook page or YouTube channel!
