Have you ever taken the time to think of the reasons as of why filmmakers remake classic movies when the classic movie has already been successful? Today that was an discussion amongst my fellow classmates. Movies such as Superman, Batman, and Twenty One Jump Street. These movies may have been success but why do these filmmakers take the risk of these movies being remaked and it being success or not?
As we know Superman and Batman has had many remakes and sequels but all based on the same myths. These to movies have been a success both old and new. Movies like Twenty One Jump Street and Shakespeare's Othello may not been as success as the filmmakers have believe them to be.In my opinion the filmmakers try to stay with what's in trend. With modern technology they try to give the audience a better feel in which they could relate. It's much easier to take a movie that already has an successful concept and add a modern twist to it. I feel by these filmmakers doing such is a smart move, because they are giving an audience more to expect rather if the movies is a success they could careless.
Does a classic movie having a modern twist affect how the audience relate to the movie?
