Films that should never have been made?

[Chappy]

I really hated the remakes of

The Longest Yard and Rollerball especially Rollerball they ruined it.

 

[Absinthe Minded]

All the 'Jaws' films except the first one.

 

[ufkacbln]

Basically any remake!

The Wicker Man

Asault on Precinct 13

Just two examples of brilliant films totally slaughtered by the remakes.

 

[Night Train]

Moulin Rouge was fabulous

Moulin Rouge was one of the few films that was so bad I walked out of the cinema part way through. I was on a second date and we looked at each other shaking our heads at how awful it was and eventually we decided we could be up to doing something more interesting. So we left and a few others followed us out.

Yes, most remakes

The one which sticks in my mind is "Solaris", which had none of the atmosphere of the original.

 

[Tony Bell]

Airplane is Ace! I won't hear a word said against it.
Someone mentioned 'Far and Away'. The full title was 'Far and Away The Worst Film You've Ever Seen'.

Also the maltese falcon- most films described as "noir" are more wooden than crossroads on a bad day.

freddie got fingered............................................

"An unemployed cartoonist moves back in with his parents and younger brother Freddy. When his parents demand he leave, he begins to spread rumors that his father is sexually abusing Freddy."

That sounds mad!

 

[punkypossum]

Moulin Rouge is fabulous!!!

And I did like Charlie and the Chocolate Factory - have the Oompa Loompa (spelling?) song as my ringtone!

 

[Rhythm Thief]

The Hairy Potty films. I quite enjoyed the books, but I managed about a third of the "Philosopher's Stone" film before going off to lance the dog's boils instead.

The ultimate in carp cringeworthy garbage has to be...Austin powers.
