So, I heard they were making a new Clue movie. And it made me mad. What could be more awesome than the original Clue movie? And then I heard this

I really loved both Clue and Neverending Story too, but I think I'd go see the new Neverending Story - I had such a crush on Atreyu! I think remakes can be okay - although there are some that just won't be the same because of casting - Jaws comes to mind...but I don't think you should get really angry, cause it's bad to be mad about it. Plus, I doubt it will happen soon. :-) Katie
But the thing is, he wouldnt be the Atreyu we remember! I dont want them to CGI it all up. I loved Falcor and the others who didnt look super realistic, but I used my imagination (something people are lacking today) and it was awesome.
Well, yes, it won't be the Atreyu I remember - but it will probably be a hot guy...and what is CGI? And people aren't lacking imagination - you're just upset :-)
Computer Generated Images.. what George Lucas did with about 90% of Star Wars I-III.
If they let the special effects dictate the story, then it will suck. and further, I don't know why they'd want to redo it, unless they want to pull a Willy Wonka and say "We want to follow the book more closely".
Clue was perfect, and should not be remade... Great comedy with great comedic actors.. why redo that? I mean honestly why?
What I'd like to see is not a remake, but a re-release of "The Last Stargifhter" with the CGI in it (first movie to use CGI in all it's space battles) souped up with today's technology. If not a re-relase, I'd like to see it on DVD, once in the original, and once with the new stuff, I'd buy that.
Did you ever think you'd get this many comments on something like remaking movies? Anyway - I don't necessarily LIKE the idea of a new Neverending Story or Clue - I LOVE both movies. But I also don't think I can get mad about it either - if nothing else, one of my little joys in life is watching the remake and judging it. About 90-some percent of the time I HATE the remake, but it is fun going through it and being all critical. And some remakes I really like - I'm thinking specifically here about Dawn of the Dead and Night of the Living Dead - both of which had remakes I liked better. Or I like how they can make a movie closer to the book maybe...like the Shining. I LOVED Jack Nicholas in the Shining (original) but the remake was closer to the book, so I LOVED that aspect of it. But I'm sorry you're steamed. And yes, Clue was awesome. Katie
