ENTER: Media/TV AV Contest: Comebacks

JiNX-01 · January 6 2013, 06:19 AM

This week's theme:

COMEBACKS: TV shows and films or film franchises that dropped out of sight for a while and have turned up either as remakes or revivals. As usual, no SF&F.

Entry thread will be up for five days.

Just for clarification, the revivals and remakes need not be recent or current...

Too sick to think of anything.

*sneezecough* No, wait, I thought of something:

True Grit, remade in 2010:

21 Jump Street

Compared to the after school special quality of the tv series, the movie sucked.

But it was pretty damn funny, and I loved the Johnny Depp/Peter DeLuise cameo scene!

I get it. You want me to be the bad guy.

That ain't gonna happen.

Muppets are real to their target audience. So the Muppets stay.
