Nothing is sacred in Hollywood. Everything they own the rights to is just possible fodder for a remake or re-imagining. While Disney is notorious for this, Paramount is taking its swing at the title for “most unwanted reimagining” with a remake of “It’s A Wonderful Life.”
Paramount, along with “Black-ish” director Kenya Barris, plans on remaking the iconic holiday film for modern audiences by remaking the film with POC actors because that worked out so well for “The Wonder Years” reboot.
Barris mentioned this project, along with a new “Wizard of Oz” film set in Inglewood at the Sundance Film Festival. Variety reported on the comments that were made by Barris as he was taking part in the Variety Studio presented by Audible

You can easily use the basic plot and do a new movie without it being a remake. Since this is going to flop anyways I doubt it will help get any more ticket sales
And I’m the criminal or terrorist on tv.
I have watched a lot of those reactions on YouTube. Not ONE of the black viewers said, “Gee, I wish there were a remake with an all-black cast.” Instead, the black reviewers love the film and Jimmy Stewart’s performance.
Inglewood, Calif.--an LA suburb out by the airport? Should be interesting.
"The Wizard of Oz" was already remade, in 1939. The remake, starring Frank Morgan, Judy Garland, Bert Lahr, Jack Haley and Ray Bolger was a good movie, but not as good as the 1925 original starring Oliver Hardy (before he teamed up with Stan Laurel).
and the other half of the country is in a bi-racial relationship headed by smart black women married to idiot white dudes.
Or “Black Panther” 🐆?!
Rule of thumb for TV shows and commercials:
White men are beyond stupid;
White women are smart;
Black men are smarter than white women;
Black women are the smartest humans alive, except;
Black women with Afros and horned rim glasses who are super geniuses.
Pretty cool story about Capra. Always enjoyed his movies.

I knew that as you.
White males haven’t contributed anything to society besides violent crime and hate towards our wonderful minority population.
It’s mere happenstance that Africa, Central and South America suck.
Nothing to do with the humans there, it’s the dirt.
"Casino Royale," the worst movie of all time, also had a hell of a cast including Orson Welles.
My late father-in-law painted the portrait of Welles used in that movie. He kept it in his home studio after the picture wrapped.
Looting?
Where can they find a black man who wants to be a father?
They need to remake the movie SHAFT with a little Chinese man.
It’s mere happenstance that Africa, Central and South America suck. it’s the dirt.

Those places suck because of evil, stupid, white, male Europeans who invaded and killed everyone, destroying the utopian dream culture of the innocent holy peoples who had overcome the vile and perverted dirt they lived on.
I’m starting to root for the bad guys in movies.
The seed was laid when I was supposed to root for the whiner in Back to School.
It’s just progressed since then…
William Zabka is the good guy in my opinion.
