    It's different though cause the original was a TV movie/miniseries and an It adaptation definitely needs an "R" rating and not be watered down for TV.

    Movies like It and Shawshank Redemption worked so well because of the choice in directors and producers. It had a relatively unknown cast with a very underrated and we'll respected director.

    When you have too much "Hollywood" out on something it never comes out properly because the guys on the yacht don't care about respecting the source material they want box office numbers SMMFH. They must understand that if you make a good movie and respect the source material it will do well SMMFH. Disney Marvel knows that, Harry Potter knows that....
    Actually I think it has more to do with money and the type of stories they choose to make into a film. Of coarse the producers/directors play a role but they can only do so much with what they have to work with. The really big story's that are turned into two parters usually fall a bit short. The shorter stories usually turn out better. A lot of them take shortcuts and ? and that ends up taking away from the film in the end.

    Don't know if you pulled a jamel and didn't really read my post, but this is about king movies specifically. I also addressed what you are talking about as well.

    I keep seeing cujo, I don't know if that will translate well with this new generation. Unless they make the dog kinda supernatural. A dog with rabies terrorizing people would seem stupid nowadays.
    Needful Things
    Damn, I forgot all about this one. Definitely needs an upgrade. The special effects we have now will really do this ? justice. Especially the twist at the end. One of kings best and most slept on stories. Cuzzo was playing the whole town.

    That ? awful langoliers movie
    LOL as corny as the movie series turned out, the story made it a good movie like a lot of his works. But as I said before, the budget was a major part of the cornyness. The acting by most of the cast was horrible and the special effects had to be the worst of all his movies. The langliers was a huge story that had to be split up into two parts. This set them back a lot. You can tell that they spent most of their money on part one. Then used the leftover money for part 2 special effects lol. Part 2 was full of obvious cut scenes, rushed scenarios, and obvious mistakes.

    This one most def needs redemption lol. The story was a crazy and unique take on time/space. That would really work today. This remake needs to be done. I forgot all about this one, I think they should have remade this before "IT" now. The time keepers special effects were ass smh. Take some of that "IT" money and put it into this remake. Make this close to 3 hours, that should cover both parts very well.

    They Live - yeah, first one is a classic in its own regard, but let's not act like an updated version of it wouldn't be dope.

    Critters - ? actors, dope creatures, this one would be a ridiculous, ? -fun movie.

    Killer Klowns From Outer Space - ? hilarious and dope concept behind everything, even for it being as dated as it is, those clowns still hold up to this day. Their molding work on those clowns were phenomenal. Keep it the same today in aesthetics, update some make-up and clothing, keep the CGI minimal.

    The Warriors - would just bad ass


    The Addams Family - could do well, keep their release dates around October

    Breakfast Club - in today's society of technology, current race relations, politics, styles, genders etc this could be ? dope updated

    Spawn - it needs it

    The Neverending Story - because CGI and the technology to do more today, expand the exploration and meet/see new creatures

    ? , and I wasn't addressing you. I was talking bout the folks naming movies like The Last Dragon and Candyman needing or wanting to be remade.
