Honesty it wasn't that bad. The major issue was it released in that time when every action movie was pg13 so no blood, crap cuts with violence and no swearing.Total Recall
This is the correct answer. Hemsworth's parts are the only thing in that film that are funny.Female Ghostbusters maybe?
Total Recall
I thought the mummy was ok, I thought it was a reboot of the the original not the Brandon Fraser one so it leaned a little more into to the horror aspects.It must be Tom Cruise The Mummy right? One of the worst movies i ever seen. Nonsensical story along with 95% of the movie being in nighttime so you cant see shit.
It even makes Tomb of the dragon emperor look like oscar material.
This definitely has to be in the conversation for worst reboot.Charlie's Angels 2019.
Wicker Man perhaps?
Never saw the whole movie. Only saw the Nic Cage bees part. I never saw the first movie, so I didn't know anything about it when I saw the clip. Cage was so bad in that scene, I thought it was a comedy movie!Snow White must be up there. Wicker Man perhaps?
Robin Hood (Crowe)
Total Recall
The Batman
Island of Dr Moreau

Never knew there was even a Flatliners remake. The original movie was decent. A little cheesy and low budget, but I thought it was still pretty good."Vacation" (National Lampoon's Vacation reboot) with Ed Helms taking Chevy Chase's role was especially lame.
So many of them are just forgettable.
Ben-Hur 2016 with some dude
Poltergeist 2015 with Sam Rockwell
Flatliners 2017 with (back then) Ellen Page
But then again, you have ones like Dune, Superman, and The Naked Gun that make rebooting worth the effort.
The Reeve movies are trash. Some of the cheesiest films ever made!All of the Supermans are significantly worse than the OG Reeve one.

Robocop.
If it's one thing that's merciful about modern Hollywood it's that they've mostly stopped with the straight up remakes everyone forgets about after 15 minutes.Nightmare on Elm Street (2010). Yuk.
This is the correct answer because the fucking 2016 movie damaged the brand permanently, Ghostbusters went from this ubiquitously beloved ip to now being mostly ignored due to people's bitterness over the 2016 movie and the controversy over the "ghostbros", the fanbase is not nearly what it once was, even though the 2020s movies delivered what everyone wanted to see, but the mental association with 2016's controversy has never gone away.Female Ghostbusters maybe?
Though yeah Robocop sucked
Close the thread, this is the winner

Mummy was fine
The best thing that ever happened with that new Mummy movie was the Wayforward video game:I thought the mummy was ok
Yep. That's the one. The lack of Englund was one thing, but everything else was also fucking terrible.Nightmare on Elm Street (2010). Yuk.
It was effectively a shot-for-shot remake but everything was just shittier. Worse acting, worse effects, no Verhoven social commentary, no Sharon Stone at her most smoking hot. Just no soul or personality whatsoever.Honesty it wasn't that bad. The major issue was it released in that time when every action movie was pg13 so no blood, crap cuts with violence and no swearing.
Again another movie that came out during that period of no blood, swearing or violence.Gonna say Robocop, it is the very thing the first movie is about. Ripping out the humanity to create a soulless corporate machine.
It's so unnoteworthy as a reboot I don't see anyone talk about it, largely forgotten to exist. Not even Robocop 3 has that problem.
They are just targeting OUR nostalgia in that time period. You can already see the window shifting to 90's and 00's reboots. TBH no idea what my kids would even be nostaligic about, they are still pre-teens and 80% of what they watch is random youtube crap.I entered this thread thinking, it's gotta be Ghostbusters, but so many candidatews in this thread, all from basically the same period, starting in the 2010s, really tells you how Hollywood just became creatively bankrupt so quickly.
I think the success of Minecraft proved categorically that these younger people do not want our warmed up leftovers. They do not want remakes of boomer stuff like RoboCop. Not just that they suck, if they are interested they can just watch RoboCop.They are just targeting OUR nostalgia in that time period.

Though my son has been turned on to Samurai Jack.....so maybe there is a faint glimmer of hope![]()
