What were the best remakes/reboots of the last 15 years?

...

Can't think of one.


Robo Cop sucked
Conan sucked
Red Dawn sucked
Poltergeist sucked
Every single remake of an 80's movie was far worst than the original. I have zero hopes for Ghostbusters.

True Grit was the only good one. The Departed was alright, but whole unnecessary.

Oceans 11?

Evil Dead

>The Departed was alright, but whole unnecessary.
Is there any remake that's necessary?

>original
find a tape and replays the summoning, noone saw it coming

>remake
JEEZ THE BOOK MADE OF HUMAN SKIN COVERED OF BLOOD SAYING PLS DONT READ, WHO KNEW IT WOULD SUMMON DEMONS

Some remakes can improve a good story, with better actors/directing and even some rewrites. Stuff like The Fly and The Thing.

Does Fury Road count as a reboot?

Batman Begins was within the last 15 years.

True Grit

Casino Royale

Fury Road was more of a sequel in it's own right, wasn't it? I haven't seen it yet but it didn't try to reexplain Max's origins, did it?

I thought Lucifer at the end was pretty scary

its a sequel, max is an already stablished character, thus why the movie works, same for the new dredd, they're just there, no need to make the whole origin arc all over again

Battlestar Galactica

What about Dredd?

It was sort a side branch, more of a new direction on an older franchise instead of being prequels/sequels/identical to the source material.
I liked it, even though new Max is nothing like old Max.


Dredd was pretty good too.

>Batman Begins was within the last 15 years.
You're right, but since comic stuff is being rebooted so often I almost feel like it doesn't count for no good reason. Shit, we've had three Spidermans in that 15 years.

The Fly
Casino Royale

Oceans Eleven
True Grit

Dredd

\threadd

force awakens

Name 3 reboots that worked out well.

You people LITERALLY can't

The Thing by John Carpenter
Dawn of the dead (the only good Snyder movie)
Also Scarface is so good everyone literal forgot about the 30's original

It's true. I didn't even know Scarface from the 30s existed before this.

Casino Royale
Batman Begins
Dredd

cape fear

Karate Kid was pretty good desu

heres one

i like to think of grand torino as the real karate kid remake

...

This one wasn't bad at all, I agree.

These too.

Fury Road doesn't count as a reboot. It's officially a sequel, but Miller's also said that he doesn't worry much about establishing a definitive continuity. Essentially, they're all just "legends" of Mad Max.

it's kinda of a reboot sequel, like star wars

new max though, no inbred pilot guy or his kid either, I vote reboot

Night of the Living Dead (Tom Savini version)
The Blob (1988)
The Fly (1986)
