I'd love to see a tv series of Hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy. They did their best with the movie, but limited animation techniques and time make it... not great

Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children. Great books, AWFUL movie. I'll never understand why they change the plot of something that is already good! Same with True Blood. If they had continued to follow the story of the books it would have been MUCH better - they added too much sex and weird stuff.

Dune ...

That's exactly what was done with Bridge to Terabithia.

Cats. The success of the Broadway show proves the story was good. Everything else was a f**king 💩 show. Who ever thought using CGI instead of costumes deserves to be shot (not really).

The Postman

We need a "Never ending Story" faithful to the book

I'd love to see a new version of Soylent Green or Silent Runnings. They have great premises but haven't aged well in terms of pacing and soundtrack.

Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.

Not as popular, but Reacher. Movie was AWFUL. Prime is much more accurate. Needs to be a movie! Love the books!

Dirty Rotten Scoundrels did this! Bedtime Story (David Niven, Shirley Jones, Marlon Brando)—they improved it and changed the ending, it’s fantastic.

Oh like The Crow!

I've always said this, don't remake the great movies, they don't need remaking, remake the bad ones and make them better.

Exactly!!

It's happened.

How is this unhinged? This is actually sensible and smart.

"The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen" would be perfect for a limited series on Max (Since DC has the rights)

Every Hallmark film (especially at Christmas), s@*t acting but good storyline!!!

The color purple?

Exactly.

There's no profitability :(

Starship Troopers where they actually use the suits and teach libertarianism, not comedy fascism.

I realized they had run out of ideas when I saw Abraham Lincoln Vampire Slayer. Now they are remaking movies less than a decade old. Personally a really awful movie that needs a retooling might be, forgive me, The Patriot.

Cinderella, I’m looking at you 👀

I nominate Idiocracy -- good theme, bad execution.

They did that with The Witcher

Noted. Cult joined.

I need extra upvotes. One is not enough for this post

Oh My God--this is frighteningly accurate

Well after my 2yo read this (on their own of course) they said, “well mommy, I would propose the notion that it’s not due to a mundane lifestyle. It’s more indicative of an insecure personality, a fragile ego if you will. They seek validation through technological services that connect humans to one another.”

Love me some Hank wisdom.

No means no.

No, send them to school.

As a teacher I make a point of telling the student teachers that they should always ALWAYS make sure they are on the janitors’ good side. They will not make your life harder if you are not, but, my goodness, can they make your teacher life easier if they like you!

That’s hilarious!

5 hours of prepping, 2 hours of roasting, 20 minutes of plating... 10 minutes to eat said meal, 25 minutes of rinsing dishes 2 hours of dishwaser and 20 minutes of putting dishes away. Now it's time for breakfast! LOL!

It's the ones who didn't grow up with South Park and family guy who are offended by every little detail of their simple minded life.

The baby sure. But have you see the text messages between his dog and owner? I love those.

We weren’t expecting special forces

We don’t know how good we have it. At least almost 3 will get a good nap in later.

See, this is the kind of thing archaeologists mean when they say "ceremonial purposes."

I think I am hilarious in my head. 🤷🏻‍♀️Laughter is infectious. 😂

Still saves money. The parents and their furbaby get a nice home, and dogs don't need clothes or college funds.

No such thing as too much cheese.

I love you, my owly friend ❤️🥹

There wouldn’t be enough unsee juice in the world…

It is always helpful to learn some off-grid basic techniques. Since +/- 30 years more and more of our activities depend heavily on things circling the globe and can be switched off by the owner at any given time, without notice. Or fail, without the possibility to have a technician get it go within hours. Prepper craze is not necessary, but ask (grand)parents how they handled things before satnav and smartphone were a thing. And learn to read maps, understabd street signs giving directions and some basic navigation skills.
