Reboots/revivals Of Tv Shows Or Movies


Recommended Posts

Personally, it depends if they make it GOOD for the reboot/revival ...

 

Most I have seen so far ... were so-so in terms of quality or the characters werent what you expected.

 

Missed the cast:

 

Will & Grace

Gilmore Girls (shame it was just a few episodes)

The X-files

Cobra Kai (2018 series ... from original cast of The Karate Kid, 80's movie)

 

Do still enjoy:

 

Taken

 

Wasnt too sure about:

 

Ghostbusters

Dynasty (weirded out by the change of characters in the reboot 1)

MacGyver

 

Never followed/a fan:

 

Roseanne

 

Have yet to see:

 

Deathwish

Tomb Raider

Overboard

The Equalizer (really liked the original)

It depends... its just hit or miss really.

 

A lot of factors are involved in making a remake / reboot sell right! like the quality of the story line, has it deviated too much from the original? Did they add something new to the story or did they not add anything! Some people are purists and some just like something new so personal preference comes in to play, actors. This is a really complicated topic Jeezz!!! . Its too early in the day for me to have a headache. Hahaha!!. :lol: :D :lol:

True. :) This topic wasnt meant to be CUM-plicated ... just your thoughts if they should/shldnt DO it, to reboot/revive. B)

 

Saw the trailer for Magnum, PI/Charmed ... many NEGATIVE CUM-ents, though. ;)

Ugh Roseane? Thats the one with rosean bar? Ugh I hate her.

 

I like the recent lost in space and Cobra Kai. Most specially Cobra Kai as they made the fan theory as the base of their story

 

Yup, that one.

 

I did see on a friend's FB post about Lost in Space ... will look into it. ^_^ Eagerly WET-ing on S2 of Cobra Kai ... B)

Cartoon Network will remake Thundercats and named it Thundercats Roar. At first glance, it looks like Steven Universe in cat suits. Not very optimistic, after the mess they made with Teen Titans Go and Powerpuff Girls.

 

I dont "follow" the cartoons now ... except for the animated movies. Just looks WEIRD to me somehow ... :blink: ;)

I'm okay with reboots, but most of the time they tend to disappoint. One exception though is my favorite TV series, Doctor Who. It started 1963 and went off the air in 1989. They tried to revive it with a movie, but it wasn't enough to propel it back to its iconic status. Come 2005, they did it correctly as a TV series and it is running until now. It works because the main character can regenerate into a completely different person with a different personality but with the same goal.

 

Another one that's enjoyable for me is Will & Grace and Gilmore Girls. The Veronica Mars movie, i'm not sure if one can consider that a reboot or merely a continuation story for the fans. A sort of closure movie.

 

I recently saw a trailer of the Meteor Garden reboot and I'm not a fan. The Charmed reboot doesn't look promising too. Sometimes they try to hard to make it 'unique' that it becomes an epic fail.

No!

 

Reboots have gotten worse over the years...

 

Have you seen the reboot of Thundercats?

 

 

 

 

 

I actually enjoyed the reboot - it's the superior variant as that one HAS A STORY, compared to the Saturday morning cartoon original. Shame that they had to cut it, just when it was going to the good parts of character development.

Havent seen one episode of Doctor Who, yet ... may look into it. ;)

 

Will & Grace ... there were some hit & miss episodes, though. Loved the one where Grace & Karen were trapped in the shower ... :D Sad, that there werent enough Gilmore Girls episodes ...

 

Veronica Mars, cant seem to recall to have seen a single episode ... will possibly check on them. :)

 

My niece was/still is a Korean telenovela/K-Pop fan ... have no idea what her take on the reboot would be for Meteor Garden. :blink:

 

Yup, the Charmed reboot looks WEIRD ... :unsure:

 

Thanks for your insghts, sis ... ^_^

 

What do you guys think of this?

My personal take is that rebooted films or series is more pressure for the producer since 1) they will always be compared to the original 2) they will most likely remake only successful movies which means that the new one has to be on an even higher level. It will really be hit or miss.

I'm an Aircraft Mechanic so it's a big YAY for me! 👌🏽

 

I can't wait to see Maverick flying again with that Boeing F/A-18E/F Super Bug and giving a middle finger to a Chinese Shenyang J11 fighter pilot over the Sea of Japan while flying inverted above it! 😂

 

I saw on IG of a legit plane spotter page in Japan a take-off and landing sequence shot at NAF Atsugi. It was said to be for a film. Probably being filmed by Top Gun's Second Unit Production crew. They used a Boeing EA-18G Growler on the said sequence tho.
