>cape fear TV remake with javier bardem and involvement from scorcese and spielbergWhy are there no threads about this?
Any particular reason they needed to remake this again as a series?
>>221024456studios will greenlight any remake with a big name attached to it
>>221023826Why would we need this?
>>221023826Same reason there were no threads about that Name of the Rose remake with John Turturro, Michael Emerson and James Cosmo.It is shit
They can't stop raping classics.https://variety.com/2026/tv/news/zac-efron-angel-heart-series-hbo-a24-1236761189/
>>221024456It’s been over thirty years since the remake and most people don’t remember or have seen it so why not. Miniseries is also a different format so you could dig deeper into the characters and story elements than what one can do in two hours
>>221023826How are they gonna tackle the hebephilia aspect
>>221023826Why in THE fuck would anyone want to watch this shit when it's been done twice already? Especially considering how like 95% of modern remakes are just pure abject shit piles.
>>221025096>this time it will be different guiseFuck off.
>>221023826>Remake, sequel, prequel, etcI sleep
Everything is the same, where is the epstien island movie?
>>221025117Most people haven’t seen either version. It’s not even that much talked about Mitchum/Scorsese movie either
>>221023826no thumb scene, no screen
>>221023826isn't javier blackballed for antismithism? or is that kayfabe as usual
>>221025101the daughter was roaming around in a dress with no bra. we can expect some kino over the coming weeks
>>221025101>hebephilia aspectbardem's max cady is a murderer not a rapist.
>>221025243see: >>221025136
>>221023826They made the lawyer a woke woman who works for a Innocence project-esque non profit with an obese black lesbian for a boss who wears the Proud Black Professional Woman Glasses with the big frames. The husband is the prosecutor and defers all decisions to his wife who wears the pants. The daughter is supposed to be a teen but genuinely looks 35 and the son is a retarded incel or something. So far, the only thing I like is the location shots in what looks like South Carolina.
>>221025408Keep crying about it
>>221025424Keep seething about people shitting on it...
>>221025027I didn’t need to know this, I’m seething wtf
>>221024456No.
>>221025423Pretty accurate assessment.
>>221023826>Why are there no threads about this?appletv logo
>>221025680Why? How is your life any worse if they make a remake you don’t like?
>>221023826I'm just not interested. Both movies are decent but I don't need another story about Max Cady and especially not one stretched out to ten episodes or something. This just seems stupid and/or unnecessary.
>>221025938Or maybe it could be good and you’re just whining because waaah waaah
>>221026055It's an existing established ip that can be greenlit without much hassle. It's not really about the merits of it. Suits love an existing ip. Even if reviving it makes little sense. Like a Cape Fear tv series.
>>221023826It's woke
>>221026101And it’s your fault for not supporting anything original and just throwing money at established IPs. Studio follow the money
>>221026134>Studio follow the moneyThey haven't done that for years, if not decades.
>>221026055>m-maybe it could be goodIs this what shills have been reduced to?
>>221026134I watch Widow's Bay religiously. I'm always on the lookout for any Apple tv show that's good. Cape Fear just seems unnecessary. Plus every male in the show is a toxic male. Like seriously EVERY male in the show is a toxic male. Even the supposedly loving husband is having a secret affair. The son is your usual angsty incel and of course there's Max Cady. Meanwhile the wife's only downfall is being too good by trying to put Max Cady away for life and the daughter is always being hounded by toxic males when she's just walking down the street.
>>221026190>Plus every male in the show is a toxic male.so every guy in the show is based? we WILL be watching
>>221026261>so every guy in the show is based?Unfortunately no. Besides Max himself the husband always defers to his girlboss wife. And the son has like zero redeeming qualities except having a bad attitude and acting like an insane person.
>>221025101daughter looks 32
>>221026156They have. You just don’t understand that it usually leads to tons of crap being made because they always try to copy whatever happens to be making tons of money. And as it usually takes years for them to make something with big budgets from scratch it takes a long time for them to see enough flops for them to shift to something else. And it all has unknown consequences they can’t predict so they often take the wrong lessons from it.For years everyone wanted to make Avatar and Avengers money and that meant they stopped doing mid-budget movies. And at the same time streaming also killed home dvd market. Then everyone tried to make their own Netflix only to see that it can’t actually generate money the same way. Then covid happened. It’s been one thing after another with the entire industry being in a state of constant change and with media consolidation going on overdrive and everything being released on numerous different services you’re not paying attention to anything except the blockbusters and then you whine nothing good is being made because you don’t watch the actually good, original stuff that no longer gets press and focus because studios see no money in them.He-man was made largely because Barbie made over a billion. So they thought toy movies are in. Same way studios thought any superhero movie would be successful and then turned out it’s not that simple. Same way they’ve been pumping out ton of mediocre musician biopics ever since Freddie biopic was popular.
You guys should watch Perdita Durango
>>221026190It’s only “unnecessary” because you know it’s a remake. 9/10 people don’t know that. >boo hoo toxic malesSo what. Cape Fear is about horrible man and in the Scorsese version the lawyer was also far from an angel. Why is it fundamentally bad to do a modern reinterpretation, especially in a new format where you can explore stuff more in depth?
>>221026381>Then everyone tried to make their own Netflix only to see that it can’t actually generate money the same way.That is because they started out by pumping out massive amounts of woke dogshit. Even Netflix started out with high quality shows at the very beginning before ultimately switching to massive amounts of woke dogshit after they had already won. Like its seriously disingenuous to say that Disney didn't have an opening of massive interest at the very start with their Marvel and Star Wars shows but once everyone realized they were dogshit the window of opportunity to compete with Netflix was closed.
>>221026454>9/10 people don’t know that.This makes no sense. The creators are counting on the name recognition. Also the show goes out of its way to do the usual of bringing down the men while uplifting the women. Its freaking tired and played out. Like ok they added the glaring character flaw to the husband that wasn't there before. Same with the son. But no the wife and the daughter. They are perfect. They are the same or even better than the original but not the males. >B..but the wife's flaw is that she cares too much!Yeah same flaw as Rey had. Her flaw is that she cares too much. Its the same woke girlboss playbook over and over.
>>221026541>This makes no sense. The creators are counting on the name recognition.But that doesn’t mean people are actually familiar with. For fucks sake the original movie is what, 60 years old already. Nobody is talking about it. It is not even the most popular Mitchum/Peck movie to bring up in conversation. The Scorsese version is even less talked about in any context, let alone when listing Scorsese’s movies. The Departed is exponentially more likely to be mentioned if someone says a remake Marty didThe studios want established IPs because there is some chance it gets people to tune in because they’ve heard about it or because the remake gets more headlines. It’s just gambling but more people are automatically going to about it than a completely original show. You know, like you whining about it is already doing more to bring awareness to the show. Meanwhile nobody knows what Schmigadoon is.>b-but womynModern audiences want women to have more to do than be damsels in distress or someone to be raped. Sorry if that’s too much for you and you can’t just do another man fights a psycho story because THOSE aren’t overdone.
>>221026491Quantity over quality is always the case. The only reason you bitch about Netflix is because it’s easier for you to browse and whine about that than it was ever to look up and sample network tv and the failed shows and tv movies they’ve vomited out over the decades. Like do you even know how frequently shows would be canceled just 20-30 years ago? A new show might not last more than three episodes before a plug was pulled. They might change the entire premise of the show on a whim if ratings weren’t good. Every year dozens of dogshit shows would be made and cancelled without you ever even knowing they exist.

>>221026695>Modern audiences want women to have more to do than be damsels in distress or someone to be raped.Funny how you conveniently left out the part about bringing down the males. They always go together like peas in a pod with bringing up the women in these woke remakes, reboots and continuations. But you aren't supposed to notice. Nothing to see here.
>>221026541>The creators are counting on the name recognition.lol no one knows that boomer ahh movie. we are watching because javier bardem and amy adams.
>>22102675934 year old James Gandolfini is delightful in it
>>221026776>bringing down the males.huh? i did not get that vibe from this show.
>>221026736Netflix came out of the gate swinging banger after banger. They were widely considered to be on the same par as HBO. But now they shill mostly algorithm slop and woke trash. Which is why I cancelled it. I still have Apple though because they currently have the largest number of shows that aren't algorithm filler slop or woke trash. Unfortunately this Cape Fear is closer to the kind of trash that the other streaming services are putting out. Just with the usual high Apple production quality and sheen.
>>221026850>Netflix came out of the gate swinging banger after bangerNope. The horror show with Famke Janssen they released after first season of House of Cards was dull and nobody even remembers it exists. Their first movies were also kinda meh to okay
>>221026776How is it bringing down males? Because the women characters got more to do than cry in the corner?
>>221026921Stop trying to gaslight. You faggots seriously can't help yourselves. Netflix gained massive popularity from shows like House of Cards, Ozark (which I dropped because of the faggotry) The Daredevil-verse Marvel shows and Stranger Things. Those are the types of shows that propelled them to the top where they would and could continue to dominate through first mover and network effects. Disney tried and failed to compete purely with brand names and quantity over quality. But now we see how that didn't work out. Even though I still have Disney because its bundled with Hulu and I can watch older shows like The Strain, Helix and other legacy shows that Disney didn't even make. They just bought.
>>221026957Because the modern era husband couldn't just be weaker than Max Cady. He had to be having an affair on top of it. Then the son is just straight up insane and weird. Zero redeeming qualities. Then the daughter is getting harassed by random males when she's just walking down the street and literally calling them out on screen for being toxic creeps. Its all modern era stuff that wasn't in the Nick Nolte-De Niro version that for some reason just HAD to be added to the new one for some strange reason.
>>221027062>He had to be having an affair on top of it.The 1991 version also had the lawyer have a history of cheating on his wife, stupid.
>>221027000Those are shows over the span of ten years. It’s entirely accurate to mention they had plenty in flops and mediocre original tv shows instead of just great show after great show
>>221023826No idea why they removed any ambiguity to his guilt in the opening scene by having him call his mistress and tell her to kill herself and to leave a confession
>>221027133Whatever. The show is still feels woke and unnecessary.
>>221027310>WhateverThe intellectual honesty of people whining about wokeness and “men being brought down”.
>>221027415The left bringing up intellectual honesty is rich. You guys can't even say out lout that men can't be women.
>>221025364>I might be a murderer, but rape and racism are way off limits!>>221026055Hey,So basicallyI'm just gonna not watch it (the series!!)I Know..... UGH I know... I'm sorry!!!It's just that I'm not gonna watch it is allHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
>>221027062>Zero redeeming qualities.the de niro lawyer was pretty shitty too. also a cheater
>>221027528>>I might be a murderer, but rape and racism are way off limits!Yeah most people who do 1 crime don't also decide every other crime is cool also since they're not autistic internet only dwellers.
>>221027528It's weird people say this given it's well known how paedophiles are treated in prison, rapists and people who commit violet crimes against women in general are often targeted
>>221027520>oh yeah what about TRANSJesus you people really are obsessed
I watched the 90s one recently and it’s pretty shit outside of DeNiro doing everything he can to make it good
>>221023826I like both movies and in theory would be interested in a mini series but I'm pretty sure it's cheap slop and really fucking gay like everything else these days so that's a no from me dawg.
>>221026440>brownwashing Isabella Rossellini
>>221025096This. Most books are more than 30 years old, they should be rewritten.
>>221026381>He-man was made largely because Barbie made over a billion. So they thought toy movies are in.hahahaha oh my god that is so stupid it must be what actually happened isn't it, of course of course, fucking suits. holy shit they've been squatting on the film rights since 2000 fucking 7 and just pulled the trigger after Barbie. wow, yeah back then would've been the time to make it alongside Transformers
>>221025423This sounds fucking terrible on every level.
>>221023826Apple makes a lot of thriller slop, it's best to ignore most of it
>>221028681You got it backwards actually
>>221028862Hollywood used to do remakes every couple of years in the 30s and 40s. Crying that once in 30-35 years they might be a remake is not a problem
I've watched at least 8 Dracula movies
>>221025027>Zac EfronKek.
