Remakes

Hey my lovely Chameleons. In today's post I wanted to tell you about remakes and my thoughts on them. As you Chameleons do know, I HATE remakes and the originals are way better. Even if I have not seen the originals.

How I started hating remakes is when I saw Rocky Horror Picture Show (1975) and then decades later, in 2016 I heard that Victoria Justice is going to play Janet and Ryan McCartan is going to play Brad in the adaptations of Rocky Horror Picture Show. They couldn't do the movie justice (That was not suppose to be a joke) cause A LOT of people hated it. It was 28% on Rotten Tomatoes. No shade to Victoria, I even met her in 2008. That is not the point here. What I hate about remakes is that the kids these days don't want to see good movies and then can't wait to see Dirty Dancing staring Abigail Breslin. I am sorry kids, but if you want to see Dirty Dancing watch Dirty Dancing from 1987 and not some cheep crap. no hate towards Abigail Breslin. 

One of my favourite movies is Everything Everything staring Amandla Steinberg and Nick Robinson in 2017. I said in videos before, Everything Everything is based on my life, to some existent cause I relate to it, and I love Nick Robinson. But also what I been mentioning is that my love for this movie is bigger than Nick Robinson. What I hate about this movie is that a year later Bella Thorne was doing a new movie, called, Midnight Sun. It's the same storyline. After I heard that I had such a hatred for this movie. For anyone who knows me I never have a hatred for anything. As a good friend I went to see Midnight Sun. I don't care if you are a big Bella Thorne fan, I hate this movie. I was even keeping a list of what they took from Everything Everything in my head, and by the time I got out of the movies I wanted to watch Everything Everything. We are not done yet Chameleons, oh no we are not. Towards the end of 2018 I heard that their was going to be a new movie, called, Five Feet Apart staring Haley Lu Richardson and Cole Sprouse in 2019. I wanted to see this movie and like this movie, cause I was being so hard on Midnight Sun. Plus I grew up watching The Suite Life of Zack & Cody and then The Suite Life On Deck. I saw this movie... and it hit more at home for me. Yes, I do not have CF (Cystic Fibrosis) but this movie is based in a hospital, people heare sick, bad lungs, feeding tubes, & other things all what I dealt with. Yes Five Feet Apart was remake of Everything Everything for some parts. Like being sick and having nurses, but I wanted to check this one out. Did I like this movie? It was ok. Was it one of my favourites? No. Would I want to see this movie again? No I don't. Do I watch Riverdale? No I do not at all lol. Sorry this was suppose to be about remakes, I just wanted to get my opinion of Five Feet Apart out there

There is even a female version on Ghostbusters, a modern day Jumanji staring Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson. Instead of getting suck into a gameboard the kids are suck into a videogame. How disgusting . Later this year they are coming out with a Women In Black. CAN WE JUST STOP!!!!!! What is wrong with classics?? They're called CLASSICS for a reason. Leave them alone!!!!

Animation to Live action is different, but if they make too many animation to live action, like Cinderella it starts to get out of hand and annoying. Like how many different Cinderellas do we actually have??? Too many. That's how many.

Just a few note before I end the blog:
1. The reason why I wrote "Everything Everything 2017 = 2018 (Midnight Sun)" and not 2019 (Five Feet Apart) is cause I felt like Midnight Sun is more of a remake. Even thought Five Feet Apart has similarities to Everything Everything to make it a remake
2. At first I did not want to see Jumanji 2017, but I just kept laughing
3. I talked myself into watching Native Son cause I love True Stories & I'm a huge fan of Nick Robinson
