Every time you turn around, Hollywood is churning out another remake. Let’s update Dawn of the Dead! Let’s update Day of the Dead! Let’s update everything! The best idea is one that has already been successful, hopefully multiple times! Well, what if the wizards of Hollywood could premake a movie? You know, take a modern film and remake it 1950’s style! That’s what YouTuber whoiseyevan had in mind when he produced a 50’s style Ghostbusters trailer!
While it seems far-fetched to remake the entire movie this way, it’s definitely possible. Sir Lawrence Olivier came back from the dead to be featured in Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow, Marlon Brando came back to reprise his role as Superman’s Kryptonian dad, and even Arnold Schwartzenegger reprised his role as the T-800 in Terminator Salvation. We’re not that far from Bob Hope, Jerry Lewis, Dean Martin, and Fred MacMurray as the heppest paranormal investigation service to ever come out of Las Vegas! If it can save us from lousy Eddie Murphy remakes of otherwise classic comedies, bring it on!
