Princess Bride has to be the all-time best. No one out there today could catch its weird modest-budget charm… they’d go big and cast huge stars and mess it up.
This smells like an article fishing for answers to build some buzz.
Believe it or not, some movies are actually timeless. Perhaps an upgrade in video quality wouldn’t hurt, like a re-release in 4K. Otherwise, if there is nothing in the movie that makes it feel “dated” or out of place, then it doesn’t need a remake. Just let it be its own work of art. Could you imagine if someone today painted the Mona Lisa as a remake
My Cousin Vinnie
Dead Poets Society
Don’t give them ideas!
Pssh no Goonies?
There’s already a sort of “sequel” to *Goodfellas* which is *My Blue Heaven*. It’s based on Henry Hill’s life in Witness Protection but it’s a comedy. As I recall, they came out in theaters pretty close to one another.
LA Confidential has been on Hulu, and I have already watched it 5 times in the past week. Alleged to have been working on a sequel, but it’s ok that they didn’t.
Let’s not give the group of producers and writers without any original ideas more fodder to ruin
Goodfellas is my absolute favorite movie. There is no way you could remake that and improve it at all. The casting is just too perfect.
I feel like every mob movie since Goodfellas has been a Goodfellas remake.
Why give the assholes in Hollywood any ideas? They butcher too many classics.
Shhhh don’t give Hollywood any ideas
The Big Lebowski, Requiem for a Dream
I’m just glad that there’s no sequel to Schindler’s list.
This is a weird list
There is still hope for a Schindler’s List sequel , if Trump gets his way and helps Putin
What a bad article. Many of those films were intended to be “one and done” pieces or “auteur films” (except a few ones) so nobody expected any sequels.
Actually it’s pretty clear some sequels just made a terrible secuence (different cast/total apart script) and never had to be done.
Saving Private Ryan loses again.
Ferris Buellers Day Off has a sequel, Election.
Ummm goodfellas did have a sequel. Its called my blue heaven
