The unnecessary reboot/remake of the week thread
- Thread starter Rowdy Roddy McDowall

True. Maybe that Disney money RTD keeps talking about could land a movie star in the lead (though I think the intensity of the shooting schedule might be an issue).
Benedict Cumberbatch already did that one...

Switch things up. This time Barbie invents the A-Bomb and Oppenheimer and Ken leave Barbieland because he has been having deep thoughts about things like death.
Rumor control:
Possible spider man live actoon on Prime

Why would they do that instead of a movie? I got to say though a film noir Spiderman played by Nick Cage doing his Spidermen from "Into the Universe" would be a unique enough approach to not get in the way of the movies.
This is a question for ''rumor control'': is somebody planning to specifically remake ALIEN 3, only with better sets and less Brits?
I think the mooted live-action series is the Cage Spider-Noir one, no? https://nerdist.com/article/a-spide...rime-video-will-not-include-peter-parker/?amp
Meanwhile it looks like Drew Goddard is to write and direct a 5th Matrix film https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-news/the-matrix-new-movie-drew-goddard-1235865603/

Story said Peter Parker, I can't even find the story now so was probably BS.. wasn't Doomcock..
I don’t know. It was announced some time ago that Sony and Amazon were to make some Spider-linked shows but the impression was that they would be like Sony’s various tangential films like Venom, Morbius etc, rather than based on Peter/Spidey himself.Story said Peter Parker, I can't even find the story now so was probably BS.. wasn't Doomcock..

I'm almost kind of angry we don't have an "Alien Nation" reboot in the works. It's like, so incredibly topical for today. Why aren't we funding this?
Just let it end.
Somehow I forgot that they made The Matrix Resurrections. Was it any good?
I haven't seen Resurrections myself, but when I saw your post start with "somehow" I thought that was going to be connected to that Star Wars meme. "Somehow The Matrix got another sequel."
Not really but it wasn't aggressively awful either. Just really boring.
It wasn't good (the action scenes, in particular, were dreadful, and the mix-and-match casting choices didn't really make a ton of sense), but it was kind of amusing in that it was Lana Wachowski taking $200 million of Warner Bros.' money and making an incredibly metatextual two-hour-long "fuck you" to Hollywood's sequel and franchise mentality.
Which makes the new announcement(of which she is listed as exec producer) even funnier.
