At least these are "sequels". Reboots are even worse in my book.

- josteink 8y agoIt could be argued that the latest Terminator movie was an attempted reboot, since they created several new timelines, of which many completely invalidated the timeline from the original movies. (And iirc it tanked.)
- Izkata 8y agoDon't forget Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles, which already established multiple overlapping timelines, with people in the present from different futures.
- vinkelhake 8y agoReboots can work well. Batman Begins, Casino Royale and Dredd come to mind.
- overcast 8y agoI think the issue is when remakes happen in quick succession. When generations go by magic like The Fly, Oceans 11, and the greatest remake of all time, The Thing, happens.
- b_tterc_p 8y agoI... don’t think any of these movies have remakes? If by the thing you mean the 2011 film, that was a prequel. It had few redeeming qualities, but thing it did unreasonably well was faithfully reproduce specific elements that were shown to have occurred previously in the first film.
