The unnecessary reboot/remake of the week thread

Bring back David Brent

 

The CSI franchise continues with the reality show 'The Real CSI: Miami'.

 

They could get some fun out some of the people working at the newspaper being a big fan of the "The Office" documentary. For example you could have a nerdy guy who is socially awkward but thinks he is going to be the "Jim" of this documentary. Stuff like that. Also if it a news paper I guess we know where they will be buying their paper from.

 

The new Lord of the Rings films are set for 2026 https://variety.com/2024/film/news/lord-of-the-rings-movie-2026-release-warner-bros-1235997102/

 

"The Hunt for Gollum"? Talk about unnecessary... At least it's new material as opposed to a franchise reboot, though, so it might be worth a look.

I am very interested in that animated "The War of the Rohirrim" project they mentioned down-page.

 

"Lord of the Rings: The Hunt for New Profit, I hear was the original working title for the movie.

 

Can someone show me the necessary TV show/film list? I have yet to find it.

 

it's the cat version of Nathan Fillion!

 

Nathan Feline

 

I like him. He played Meowcolm Reynolds.

 

Radio Silence, the director duo behind Abigail, Scream VI and Ready or Not, are no longer attached to Escape from New York, which is supposed to be some sequel/reboot hybrid.

The studio tried to remake it with Gerard Butler many years ago. I think Robert Rodriguez was also attached to it at one point.

 

If lost, probably found in the Nathan Fillion Civilian Pavilion And yes, it's a real place.

 

Charlie’s Angels is to get a Brazil-set, Portuguese language “tween” revival. https://geektyrant.com/news/new-twe...ZYC_D-ax_c_D722ieVDCnnNvIu0P3S1T2PmY_CEA3HLWK

 

Charlie’s Angels again? This is what the 4th attempt?

 

Focusing on tweens? What are they going to do? Go undercover in the school cafeteria to see who is spitting in Principals Charlie's Lunch order.

 

Probably working off of a Nancy Drew type idea. Why not?

 

"Good morning, Angels. I hope you've all done your homework. Bosley will now distribute your pocket money."

 

Not to mention the Hardy Boys. In terms of concept, I could see it working. But on the other hand, that recent Hardy Boys series was awful.

 

Legally Blonde is to get a prequel about high school-aged Elle Woods, to stream on Amazon. I like the two original films, but without the law school thing, what is there to distinguish Elle from any other high school It Girl?
