Around the corner will probably be other 80 classics like The Goonies, Willow, Gremlins, Ghostbusters............

well, funny u should mention Ghostbusters, as GB3 has been announced, with most of the original cast set to take part in it. i'm kind of excited

yeah, a terrible new series and sh*tty toyline. and i agree we don't need a new He-Man movie, but there's no choice in the matter. this thread should be renamed "the stupid crappy remakes that nobody wants" thread. or "Hollywood's finally reached the bottom of the barrel in terms of ideas"

Pretty sure the 2003 He-Man series and toys were far superior to the old stuff... No, not pretty sure, I'm ****ing certian.

You know... I heard the New TMNT Toon was kinda crappy compared to the Old School version, too.

Is this cursing all that necessary. I mean, kids do visit these boards and all, and I thought that there were rules against excessive cursing on the technodrome?

*XERO* · 05-31-2009, 04:04 PM

Heh, it's probably one of the reasons this Forum gets so many views.

But he censored his cursing, so what's the deal?

And what do you know about what people want? There's a reason remakes get made; it's profitable. It's profitable because people wanted to, then went to, see it. Simple enough. End of story. Move on with your life.

Heck, remaking the Flight of the Navigator almost guarantees Disney will release a new DVD version, possible one with great new bonus features.

Positive thinking FTW, my friend. It's actually pretty refreshing.

*TheCanadiandrome* · 05-31-2009, 08:27 PM

yeah, that's what's good about remakes i suppose, the original gets some decent treatment. but i still stand by the fact that not everything needs to get remade. it seems HollyWood is too obsessed with remakes. it's like they're running on empty when it comes to new movie ideas. hell, we can't think of anything new, so here's a reboot that nine times outta ten doesn't hold a candle to the original.

Before you go around assuming ****, I'm a child of the 80's, I own BOTH He-Man series on DVD, and I can accept the fact that the toys have better sculpts and were higher quality. I also can accept the fact that much more care was taken with the animation, and it looks superior to the 80's version.

They did it with the original Witch Mountain movies when the new one with Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson hit theaters, why not FotN?

How's the story? I was never a huge He-Man fan so I couldn't care less really, but the same could be said of TMNT. The old toon is inferior in terms of art and even story, but still has a charm all it's own that still makes it a great series to this day, inferior technically to the remake or not.

well, as i said, you're opinion. i disagree. you might think the new series looks superior in terms of animation, i think it looks like crap.

wow, see i don't like the new TMNT series at all. i don't think it looks that much superior to the classic at all. the Turtles don't have any eyeballs. sure the new series "might be closer related to the comics" than the old series, but it lacks the emotion of the old series. the Turtles are way to serious in the new series

Really....wow....so no pupils automatically = inferior to the original series? Have you watched the old toon lately? There were several animation mistakes per episode. I can only remember a few in the whole run of the TMNT reboot. As for the turtles being more serious and lacking emotion, when did the Turtles ever exhibit any emotions in the old toon? it was all played for laughs, which I love, but if you were going to look at either series for character development and emotion, I'd point to the 2k3 series.

I wasn't even upset about anything, so you're overreacting. I was just correcting your assumption of people not wanting remakes. Which again, they do, and the money proves it.

You need correcting again. They do have eyeballs, or else they couldn't see. They just lack pupils. In fact, they have pupils when they take off their masks.

And who are you to say that being 'serious' is NOT an emotion?

And what kind of mind-crap are you trying to pull by saying that the New Toon is lacking in emotion compared to the Old Toon?

Same As It Never Was episode was by far the most tragic episode in the entire series. Insane in the Membrane was definitely the most disturbing, unless we ever get to see Nightmares Recycled. And who the hell can forget the beheading of Shredder in Return to New York part 3? And the fact that he got up, picked up his own head, and walked away, THROUGH FIRE? And this was all before we know the obvious (but not yet official) fact that he was an Utrom.

I could go on. How much more emotion do you need? The stuff I mentioned was just a mere fraction of all the depth and emotion the series had.

What did the old Toon have that was emotional besides Michelangelo crying during his birthday because the others got turned into inflated balloons?
