Anything that is “rebooted” is crap.
Even Alfred Hitchcock remade one or two of his early films, but they weren’t “reboots”. Hollywood has nothing to offer at all anymore except crap remakes, CGI superhero junk, and rehashed tropes with all of the above.
Eddie Murphy said you couldn’t do a black version of “The Amityville Horror”
Eddie Murphy: In “The Amityville Horror,” the ghost told them to get out of the house. White people stayed in there. Now that’s a hint and a half for your ass. A ghost say get the ____ out, I would just tip the ___ out the door! Lou Walker looked in the toilet bowl, there was blood in the toilet. And said, “That’s peculiar.”
I would’ve been in the house saying: “Oh baby, this is beautiful. We got a chandelier hanging up here, kids outside playing. It’s a beautiful neighborhood. We ain’t got nuttin’ to worry about, I really love it, this is really nice.”
Eddie Murphy: [imitating loud whisper] “GET OUT”
Eddie Murphy: “Too bad we can’t stay, baby!”
