they want to remake Drop Dead Fred with Russell Brand and redo the whole story line!!! instead of having it be about Elizabeth needing to cope with her grown-up issues its ALL about imaginary friends and its going to be a Tim Burton film
Remake or Mistake?!?!?!?
they also want to remake the original Childs Play. instead of it being about a young boy, Andy will be 17!!!!!! and the girl (tiffany) wont be in it! they also are going to make Chucky more dark and LITTLE TO NO COMEDY
Remake or Mistake?!?!?
they also want to redo Robocop...i dont know much about it though!!

Drop Dead Fred? Mistake - why try to fix what ain't broken?
There is no way Russell BLAND will be as funny as Rik Mayall in that role!
All those sound like a mistake to me
Film makers just aren't original anymore with all their remakes!
It's actually quite annoying!0 -
The only remake off the top of my head was Dawn of the Dead. The only thing that sucked was running zomhies!0
-
I think they would suck. LOL.
But Arnold wasn't in Robocop...it was Peter Weller. = )0 -

i totally agree!!! all of them are going to be horrible!! drop dead fred was my all time favorite movie as a child!!!! i swear if this movie goes wrong Russel Brand will loose alot of fans!!!
c'mon the famous "cob-webs" was the joke in my house!!! i was like 5 and i would walk around on my back and go under my grandmothers/brothers/mothers legs and say "COBWEBS!!" and die laughing. only if i knew back then what i knew now, i would of NEVER done that. but its true "kids will be kids" lmao0 -

I don't think I've ever seen a remake that I thought was better than the originial
also, DON'T REMAKE DROP DEAD FRED!!!!!!!!!! that was my favorite movie growing up, they can't ruin it for me! :sad:0 -
Universal Pictures is developing a remake of Drop Dead Fred for Russell Brand to star in, says The Hollywood Reporter.
Dennis McNicholas (upcoming Land of the Lost) will write the remake. Marc Platt is producing via his studio-based Marc Platt Productions along with Working Title's Tim Bevan and Eric Fellner.
The 1991 original starred Phoebe Cates as a wallflower who loses her job and husband during the course of a lunch hour. Forced to live back home, she's reunited with her childhood imaginary friend (Brit actor Rik Mayall), who promises to help but causes more havoc.
The trade says the take for the update is to make a film in the tone of Beetlejuice, building a universe around the concept of imaginary friends. Brand would play the trouble-making pal.
omg this is going to SUCK!!!0 -
I was beginning to think me and my bezzy mate were the only people who liked that film - glad there are others who also appreciate it!
"We're making pants pie!"0 -
Usually I love Tim Burton's stuff - but this is going to make me hate him!
They could at least try and find somebody a lot more talented than Russell Brand - the main just ain't funny!0 -
Most remakes stink, imo. As much as I love Tim Burton/Johnny Depp combo I'm not loving his remake of Dark Shadows either. And Drop Dead Fred was an awesome movie, don't see the point of changing it .0

*sigh* Can NO ONE come up with an original idea anymore?0
-
Ugh. No. Just NO.
Also, can we just admit that the Burton/Depp genius peaked with Edward Scissorhands? Now it's just getting sad. They need to do a trial separation. For the sake of the kids (us.)0 -

yea Depp isnt in this one though. its going to be Russell Brand....honestly, i think that they need to leave it a lone. Maybe touch up the color or even make it into 3D and re-release it. But not redo it....0 -

The original in 3D would be quite epic - especially when he boings all over the place after Lizzie sneezes at the gladiolies0 -

definatley would be AMAZING!!!! i think they should of done that like 5+years ago....they only took drop dead fred off the shelves because it was to "ronchy" for children....WELL THEN EFFIN RE-RATE it and give it to us adults!!!0 -
It's not even raunchy really
They probably more worried that the mischief in the film will rub off on children and give them ideas for pranks!0 -
