A reboot is also essentially a remake. So far all remakes (reboots included) have done rather well., trade,ark

Posted by: DiNar0 (a.k.a shahnon) on Aug 23, 10:38 in response to tradermark's post Is todays IPO the first remake of a Robin Williams vehicle?

Not necessarily better BO but significantly better overall. Case in point, in the run-up to Batman Begins, CBALE ability was questioned. So were ZQUIN's and CPINE's abilities in the run to the TRK11. These are just two instances of hundreds.

My question to you, trademark, is why would a HSX Billionaire like yourself be worried of trvial thin like this and put an effort to higlight this in the forum unless to move the price of JUMJN down?

 
Evil genius you! :P 

Is todays IPO the first remake of a Robin Williams vehicle? tradermark Aug 22, 11:01

Hi tm! I'm curious why you would feel that way... can you elaborate? {nm} Chateau_du_Mal_Voisin Aug 22, 12:00

sure> tradermark Aug 22, 12:43

Gotcha. So, nostalgia. Okay. But remember, the target audience (kiddos) won't know who RW was ;) {nm} Chateau_du_Mal_Voisin Aug 22, 12:48

He hasn't been dead THAT long! {nm} DTravel Aug 22, 13:54

What was his last memorable movie for that audience? {nm} Chateau_du_Mal_Voisin Aug 22, 14:08

kiddos of today have surely seen him in Night at the Museum x3 {nm} andy007 Aug 22, 15:03

My 16 yo dtr couldn't point him out to me today when I asked. I don't think his absence will be an issue. {nm} Chateau_du_Mal_Voisin Aug 22, 15:24

... AND she JUST remembered him as the voice of the Genie in Aladdin, but said; "He was in Jumanji?" LOL {nm} Chateau_du_Mal_Voisin Aug 22, 15:26

You may have heard of television. Maybe DVD's. tradermark Aug 22, 14:46

do you really think his absence will make kids not want to see it? Really, really? I doubt... Chateau_du_Mal_Voisin Aug 22, 15:42

Kids? Maybe but the person paying might have a different opinon. {nm} tradermark Aug 22, 17:18

So, they won't take their kids because RW is absent? Do you have precedent for this theory at all? {nm} Chateau_du_Mal_Voisin Aug 23, 05:05

TM - I appreciate your nostalgia - I loved RW too, but I don't think this will make a bit of difference @ BO {nm} Chateau_du_Mal_Voisin Aug 23, 05:08

What an awesome response. I also feel the missing piece that Robin Williams left in cinema. However... Willroast Aug 22, 14:06

But what niche do you put Jumanji in? Fantasy right? tradermark Aug 22, 14:41

Jim Carey could certainly pull it off. {nm} Chateau_du_Mal_Voisin Aug 22, 15:43

Or Jack Black. {nm} Chateau_du_Mal_Voisin Aug 22, 15:53

Jim who? {nm} My teenage daughter Aug 22, 15:56

the Mask, Bruce Almighty, Pet Detective, liar liar, Grinch, ;) (Carrey, sorry) {nm} Chateau_du_Mal_Voisin Aug 22, 16:44

I think WillRoast was just using horror as an example. No one thought anyone but Robery Englund could be Freddy Dorfman Aug 22, 17:05

I thought Zathura was a remake of Jumanji. Haha jk {nm} Dorfman Aug 22, 17:36
