Ads, huh? Cant be mad at you though.
Minor point, but the Brendan Frasier Mummy was itself a remake of the Boris Karloff verson.
@@HariSeldon913 More a reimagining. T'was not a comedy, nor did our Imhotep(?) hide in plain sight.
@@kanedaku
For that matter, the Tom Cruise version was more of a reimagining, as well. The story was not the same as the Brendan Frasier version
@@karawardlaw4090 Yeh, I believe they stated in this video it was a reimagining.
How do you not have Robocop near the top of this list?
Because WhatCulture does not give a damn about details or high quality videos, but rather releasing multiple videos a day / week / month with the same content flipped around or with a slightly different video name, to keep the income flowing.
Because it's on another list of worst remakes
I guess there’s an argument that it was ‘expected’ and the marketing around it did generate a lot of interest.
@@Redshadow2200 No excuse. It should be on the top of every list.
Italian Job is pretty damn entertaining, that's pretty much what you need in a movie!
I actually find the Italian Job quite enjoyable
"Psycho" should have been #1 on this list.
I never even knew there was a Cabin Fever remake 😂
Producer guy:
Why are we again making a reboot?
Writer guy:
Because money...
Producer guy:
I do like money...
Producer guy: Will it be hard to write a lacklustre, pale imitation of the original?
Writer Guy: Oh no, super easy, barely an inconvenience!
Producer Guy: Oh really?!
Total Recall: How do you make a big deal about certain directors having inimitable styles and name drop Tarantino in this segment, but not mention Paul Verhoven, the very director of the original you were praising for their unique style and vision?
I thought The Italian Job was very enjoyable. I find Mark Wahlberg is a hit or a miss, with almost no middle ground, and he was on his game in this one.
Let's not forget about Never Say Never Again. I know the story on why it was made, but I don't think a remake of Thunderball was the biggest request Bond-wise.
The Thing Remake isn't great but isn't bad enough to be on this list over the Robocop remake.
I'd argue The Thing. I rather enjoyed it as a story, it was only really let down by the studio forcing them to use CGI rather than the physical effects of the original.
This completely. The premise of what happened to the Norwegian base was sound, the script was sound, the studio ruined it despite the practical effects already being done for most of it.
Actually, they did used a combination of both CGI and practical effects.
@@lukewright9031 Yeh, but they wanted to do it fully practical and the balance of the two ended up a bit … off.
Yes!!!
Don’t get why Italian Job is on this list.
Because the 1960s version could not be topped, and from what I know the 2003 version had very little to do with the original.
@@dangermouse9348 Stallone?
@@erauprcwa Cheers my mistake, fixed now, and doesn't change anything.
@@dangermouse9348 Yeah, the only thing that related to the original was the title and the cars...
I will say personally, I didn't know about the original and it led me to watching it.
@@erauprcwa Did you enjoy the original?
The Thing prequel failed because they had actual awesome practical effects, and went with standard subpar CGI effects instead. The JC Thing still holds up, and it's still a cult classic.
I remember once the prequel was released i downloaded it and the JC original. I picked up a pizza and wings, sat down and watched both back to back on a Saturday afternoon.
Both were good and bad for various things but I enjoyed watching both.
ARTISTIC BANKRUPTCY
LAZY OPINION
The original point break remake is the fast and the furious
You do a Schwarzenegger movie and pick Total Recall and not Conan?
Probably because Jason Momoa is now the "it" guy nowadays.
Not only that, but the second Total Recall movie was not a remake. It was made to be as true as possible to the original source material.
The first movie strayed far from its source material. Much like Starship Troopers did. Both movies are actually enjoyable because they are still good stories. They should just have had their own names made up is all.
Remaking a Paul Vorhoven film and stamping a PG 13 on it is disrespectful.
In today’s dollars, _Ben Hur_ (1959) made over $1.5 billion.
This list needs to be longer
I disagree with The Italian Job. The 2003 version is a lot of fun!
To be fair, so did a previous crowd of WhatCulture--I think we've reached a group of writers who don't like the movie, when the previous group did. The list was probably written by someone who's only ever seen the same three or four establishing shots of the Seattle waterfront and assumed that was the entirety of the Pacific Northwest.
Barb Wire. Let's do a remake of Casablanca, but make it science fiction with Pamela Anderson in Humphrey Bogart's role.
The THING is good. Could have been great
It had marky mark, seth green, mos def, charlize therone, edward norton, jason statham, and to top it all off, donald MF sutherland! Its a great film, and yall are whack for that.
Fun list tho. Tbh i had no idea the 2003 the italian job was a remake.
" Tbh i had no idea the 2003 the italian job was a remake."
So I'm guessing you've never seen the original?
The original is full of charm, great British actors and of course the amazing Minis driving around the Italian town it was set in.
It's one of my favourite films and it had no need of getting the Hollywood treatment.
Red dawn remake also sat on self for few years before they put it out only after Chris henworch got famous because of thor movie
Does anyone else know that "Plan 9 From Outer Space" was remade in 2015?
I’ve got it saved in a watchlist somewhere but haven’t seen it. I just don’t know how they could improve upon the original!
A Nightmare in Elm Street?
Sorry, but The Italian Job remake was a lot of fun.
Best Red Dawn remake was Tomorrow When the War Began.
You forgot "rollerball", "star wars a force awakens", "doctor dolittle" (twice), "charlie and the chocolate factory ", "the shop around the corner", "evil dead", and "texas chainsaw massacre".
STOP USING NOBODY AND EVERYBODY in your videos! How do you know what everyone wants or thinks? Stop assuming you know what I like or want.
im suprised poltergeist remake didnt get shoved on here but realistically its better we all collectively memory hole that garbage
You can't remake the original's perfection, that's why a lot of remakes, reimagining's, reboots fail, they never live up to the original, nor surpass it and to remake something for the modern audience is stupid, why remake something that is cinematic gold in the era the movie was made in.
Remakes only work if the author creates some kind of original take like in the case of The Thing (1982) or The Fly.
@@ExtremeMadnessX Yes definitely.
American 90's were the real true Happy Days.
Like many others I enjoyed the Italian Job remake. I also enjoyed Total Recall also. When I first heard about it and was told there was no Schwarzenegger and they weren't going to Mars, I was "Nope, not watching it". Then a friend of mine told me to watch it. I was pleasantly surprised. The remake was closer to the source material and was a different experience instead of just copying the first movie, so yes I think it has a point. Combining Michael Ironsides' and Sharon Stone's characters into one person (Kate Beckinsale) was clever. I also appreciated the nods to the original.
Exactly, the second movie was made to do right by the source material. It was a very good movie when you understand that point.
It actually does not belong on this list. It is not a remake.
I really wish The Dark Universe WORKED. I loved the OG Universal Monsters!
Does anyone actually not skip through the built in ads in these videos?
The Myst (2015) TV Series Not a Movie But Spike TV tried so hard to Fix their reputation after a decade of Pro Wrestling, MMA, and male gaze television but making a TV Show based on The Myst was not a smart move at least they lasted longer than G4 they can have that credit
What's wrong with Pro Wrestling and MMA?
Red dawn not foreshadowing a very real prospect now? If not an alternative reality like for all man kind.
What, the North Koreans invading? 'Cause one of the main causes of death in NK is starvation. They'd last about five seconds against the US.
If you want to see a good remake of Ben Hur I recommend the three episode mini-series from 2010.
This is honestly the first time I'm hearing Cabin Fever was remade.
Van Zant remade Psycho so that nobody else could.
I didn't even know that half of these remake existed.
The Italian Job was iindeed unecessary but hey. they at least did something enjoyable with it. I have to agree with every other film on this list, They all ranged from awful to disappointing and in a couple of cases outright tarnished the originals
The two film remakes I expected to see on this list and didn't were "the Goodbye Girl" and "Footloose", both of which were shot for shot duplicates with nary a change in a single line of dialog.
How are The Wicker man and The Omen not on this list???
They should've just put the original Omen back in theaters on June 6, 06. I wish that every time they wanted to do a remake, they'd just put the original back in theaters. That would be pure profit, since there wouldn't be production expenses. It is so rare that any remake is actually worth seeing.
I’d say the Omen was an ‘expected’ franchise reboot attempt. Wicker Man should absolutely be on this list though.
@@matthewpatrick7263 that would have been a much better idea
The film doesn't change the audience does.
I suspect the only reason a Point Break remake even got pitched was because of Hot Fuzz.
For the record, I actually enjoyed the Red Dawn remake.
With all these sequels, prequels and spinoffs. I’m surprised Arachnophobia still hasn’t been done again. (Sting was good but the point still stands)
How can you say Gus Van Saint’s Psycho remake is a mystery. GVS straight up said that it’s an experiment and essentially he wanted to pervert to studio desire to remake classics. This has been known within a few years of the remake release.
Thankfully Bates Motel came along a made a worthy prequel/remake of Psycho. Well worth taking the time to watch the whole run.
Isn't The Italian Job set in Turin?
You forgot the ALFIE remake with Jude Law
I actually really like the Get Carter remake
I love Total Recall (2012), I thinks it's better than the original.
I have the remake on blu ray and love it. It’s a guilty pleasure
Gonna have to respectfully disagree with you on the original Cabin Fever. It wasn't mediocre it was BAD!!! but it hit the sweet spot of so bad its good
I liked the 2003 Italian Job. On the other hand, Psycho was the first one that popped up in my mind, and probably should’ve been number 1.
The Crow....🙄
You forgot The Omen remake
2011's The Thing *could have* been just as great as the original, had they not swapped out the practical effects for CGI, 80% of the way through post-production.
Extreme with an x? As opposed to etreme, with no x?
no Xtreme vs. Extreme.
@@Druforithe Sorta sailed right past the joke, partner.
There are no goals movie remakes
The real problem with remaking Point Break is that it had already been done with The Fast and the Furious which is exactly the same film just with cars instead of Surf Boards I mean the undercover cop even lets the gang leader go at the end the only difference being that in Point Break Bodhi is going to his death
the thing remake/prequel is quite alright imho. but it is one of those movies where producers just screwed their own production with insisting on crude cgi whilst already having a lot of good practical effects.
No RoboCop or Death at a Funeral?
the original italian job was meant to have a sequel set in the us but was never made so the 2003 film is more of a sequel than a remake and we all wanted to know what happened next
Dirty Dancing was completely unnecessary
They should have held off with this till The Crow ia released....
Ghostbusters didn't rate a mention...?
Add _The Music Man._
The only movie I completely disagree with is Total Recall. The 90's Total Recall is why I hate 90's movies. Overly unnecessary bloody. The remake takes out that,and focused on the story (which they wisely didn't redo the story from the 90's)
7:24 I love this remake. It felt like a live-action “Mass Effect.”
How in all the comments of missed movies not on this list, that should be,has no one mentioned The day the earth stood still and war of the worlds, conan the barbarian, dawn of the dead, true grit, or halloween...plus i am sure a few others i dont recall
I can only agree with Total Recall & Cable Fever the rest of the movies remakes 🔥
There IS something inherently wrong with remaking a concept to destroy it. I'm not even talking about the deconstruction of a trope or theme, I'm describing deliberate, spiteful desecration. Blood and Honey, for instance. The reason some deconstructions such as _The Boys_ got popular was that in between the attacks on the superhero genre there was an interesting story. Other fiascos like the "Disney Clump" shat upon Star Wars from within, to no purpose save to clear the way for an *EXTREMELY* unwanted narrative.
@8:51 Where in this universe, do we need the pointless expression, "the original, original"? Why? Why?
Please stop calling "The Thing From Another World" the original, and John Carpenter's "The Thing" a remake. "The Thing" was the first faithful adaptation of the source materiel, the novella "Who Goes There?" by John W. Campbell. "The Thing From Another World" was at best very loosely based on the novella, in that it involved a bunch of scientists in Antarctica, and something alien. The similarity ends there. John Carpenter's "The Thing" was a very faithful adaptation, including most of the characters from the novel appearing in the film. The same cannot be said for "The Thing From Another World", and John Carpenter's movie owes nothing to that earlier film. John Carpenter could accurately say about that prior film, "your's was crap, here's what a decent adaptation looks like."
Just give Seattle some time...
Lol I more or less came here to say this, as well as add "...why the hell do you think grunge rock originated here?"
Italian Job was trying to bank on Oceans 11
Remaking a silent film makes sense with all the upgrades you could insert.
Otherwise 90% of remakes are a waste of film.
You forgot about the English version of martyrs the best thing I could say about film was the house was nice
Robocop. The Crow. Little Mermaid. Lion King. Snow White. Anything else Disney and co want to screw up "for a modern audience "
They remade Point Break in 2001 by having it based around car racers stealing VCR's.
The total recall remake is actually pretty good tho. Not as good as the original but it's more like a spiritual sequel than a remake
personally I prefer it by a mile
I liked it.
@@JacobWatsonVideos that's fair. I do love arnold and Sharon stone. But I also love Colin farrell and Kate Beckinsale and Jessica Biel. Also Bryan cranston as the bad guy. Can do no wrong
It's closer to the book than the Arnie version.
You didn't listen to what she said

@@nickymakesmusic wrong turn 2021 is a reboot not a remake
What, no Friday the 13th remake?
I wasn't sure about the remake of Wrong Turn, but when I saw it was written by the original writer, I decided to watch it. I really enjoyed it. It exceeded my expectations.
RoboCop......
🎥🍿🎞🧙🏻♂
Vanilla Sky?
US remakes of foreign language films is a whole different thing for another list. Besides, if you haven’t seen the original (which I personally haven’t) Vanilla Sky is pretty decent. Something like Oldboy or maybe The Ring would be better fitted to this list.
@@mutantdog. The original is way better. If you liked Vanilla Sky, you'll love Abre los ojos. Also, it was made by the oustanding director Alejandro Amenábar. If you want to follow up on his works, another great film of his is Mar adentro.
But true, VS may be a remake the American audience actually wanted, because the original wasn't filmed in English.
Friday the 13th. Jason knocked off some of the worst characters I have seen in a slasher movie.
Honorable Mention: The Craft Legacy
@@RomaroBrandon that's not a remake. That's a sequel
@@itzbp9949I know that it is but it's really not. The only thing that makes it a sequel is Fairuza Balk returning as Nancy and I'll gladly pretend that didn't happen.
How is it not a sequel?
The Thing wasn’t a remake, and was actually pretty good. Why is it on this list when there are so many other movies that are both actual remakes, and actually terrible. This list is awful.
The movie not on this list that should be here is J. Lo's "Shall We Dance" -- a movie about ballroom dancing that was originally a Japanese film brought to the US, in Chicago.
It failed on so many fronts, particularly because the original movie is distinctly Japanese. Ballroom dancing is so counter-cultural to Japanese society that seeing it as a rebellious diversion as part of a Japanese accountant's quest to having an affair and the discoveries that follow makes it so compelling.
The US version loses all of that magic. And the side characters in the ballroom dance class are not people you necessarily find yourself bonding with like you do in the original.
1/10 of the video consists of Marvel Merch - weak.
7:05 this was just a bad film
I don't agree with Get Carter. I liked that movie.
10:34 *inset picture of Jay Bauman here*
I don't watch remakes anyway. However, I actually liked the Footloose remake. But still, I don't bother watching them at all. That's why many of them flop. Hollywood just isn't listening. And I wish fans wouldn't waste their time watching them either. All it does is give Hollywood more ideas to make more.
How can you like the Footloose remake if you don't watch remakes?
@@teddyray8597 ^^THIS!
@@teddyray8597
That's what I was trying to figure out
The remake of The Thing was a perfectly fine movie if you have not seen the 1982 version.
But if you have, yeah, it's not adding a whole lot.
Some of the special effects were amazing, others were just awful, which apparently was due to the studio interfering to get more CGI.
@@lanychabot-laroche135 it wasn't a remake. It was a prequel
