I think there should be a rule at this point an IP can only get one reboot every 15 years and it has to be won in a director competition because this is ridiculous! It feels surreal how many reboots and remakes they make and they are usually always for the worst.

So are you tired of them to?

Thanks sherlock, I use to think I had to watch each one. Glad you just let me know that information.

Only around 35% of reboots are hits. The rest are flops.

Excellent response 😂😂😂 what an obnoxious comment “YoU dOnT hAvE tO wAtCh ThEm”

And what does it mean “they make them cause they work”? Did the Snow White remake work? Or Lady and the Tramp? Or Dumbo? No, they flopped, and people hated them.

I hate these remakes and reboots. They’re awful. Sad that so much money and energy gets poured into stories that don’t need to be retold. The motivation is purely profit, and it shows.

You don't though. My response was about the same, the lazy remakes of recent years mildly annoy me because that money could go elsewhere but other than that, meh.
