Now Predator to Be Remade/Rebooted, with Robert Rodgriguez Attached

Whichever. Not sure.

Fun fact you probably already know: Jean-Claude Van Damme played the Predator originally. They had in mind a small, agile predator. Like space monkey Gleep.

But they realized it wasn't working -- the bad guy should be more imposing than the hero -- so they shut down production for like six weeks, redesigned the predator, cast a giant in the role, and re-shot the Predator parts.

The Trouble with Remakes: is this -- the filmmakers can't really simply remake the best, most memorable parts of the movies they're remaking. That would be "copying," and audiences would be annoyed at the re-do. So they do the good parts in a different way.

The trouble is, the original film got those parts right. And there are a thousand ways to screw up any particular movie but only one or two ways to get them right. So, the original film having gotten those parts right-- what do you think the odds are the remake will somehow manage to stumble upon the only other way of making it work at all?

Like, zero.

The awful Planet of the Apes remake tried to contrive a same-but-different "surprise ending" twist. They went through all this complex connivance of time portals opening at different times just to get the same payoff -- kinda -- as in the first one. Trouble was, not only had we seen that basic ending before, but we'd seen it simpler, starker, and more effectively once before; the new "surprise" ending was too cute by half and too complicated to have even 5% of the impact of the first. *

The Robocop remake won't remake the parts of that movie that really elevated it above the ordinary -- namely, Robocop's creepy-yet-understandable stalking of his onetime wife, and his ultimate recovery of his humanity with the simple invocation of his name, "Murphy" -- because that's been done. Instead they'll jigger up some obscure and complex emotional arc that's sort of like the first one but just different enough to leave the audience cold (and possibly scratching their heads).

I guess that's why they say don't remake moves that worked. The stuff you have to toss out in order to make the movie fresh is the stuff that worked the first time, and the odds of your coming up with something nearly as good are extraordinarily low.


* Charleton Heston really should have realized he was on Earth from the beginning. Not only was he in a world of horses and apes, but the apes spoke English.

Kind of a tip-off.

No, he isn't.

Van Damme wasn't happy to be running around the forest wearing a day-glo orange bodysuit for the optical camo stalking scenes, either.

The great sin of this remake is that it is going to be a team of soldiers fighting off an army of predators.  The whole point of Predator was that one of those bastards could take out a squad of elite special forces with chain guns. That in turn makes Arnold that much more badass for taking out the Predator single-handedly!

If it bleeds we can kill it.

Charleton Heston really should have realized he was on Earth from the beginning. Not only was he in a world of horses and apes, but the apes spoke English.

 

True. In this respect, the novel by Pierre Boulle makes more sense. In the novel, the apes speak a different language, which the hero has to learn. That's why he can't communicate at first. In the film they changed this so Heston is injured in the throat and can't talk for a while.

 

Incidentally, the apes in the novel live in an advanced civilization with cars and skyscrapers. The filmmakers originally considered this approach, but decided against it and set the apes in a primitive community instead.

I hope Rodriguez keeps the jokes from the original movie that Shane Black did.  How do you top this one?

"My girlfriend has a huge pussy, as big as a house.  So I said to her, 'gee your pussy's big gee your pussy's big' "

"And she said, 'why did you say that twice?' "

"I didn't."

In other news, I also heard that Escape From New York was being considered for a remake with King Leonidas himself, Gerald  Butler.  Butler has since quit and the hope of a remake is dead for now.  This is a movie very dear to my heart because I stayed up very late one night, way past my bedtime when I was little, and watched the whole thing.  Carpenter's vision of the future scared the crap out of me, but the story of an anti-hero saving a president he hated and not giving a shit about anyone or anything, all the while running under a ticking clock, absolutely fucking rocked my world.  Snake Plissken became a hero in my eyes.

I was pretty pissed when Escape From LA came out and they recycled the same story, complete with 24 hour countdown.

33 >>>Thing is man, about the original PotA, they were abusing the fact that everybody was smoking shit back then man. Every SF movie and TV show had people speaking English, and the cheap as budgets made using Apes and Horses instead of oddball shit expected.

I know. It's exploiting a convention to disguise a plot hole.

They did this on Psych recently. Exploit a convention that you just ignore because it's the formula. The set-up was that Gus was being fired by his boss because he's moonlighting at a psychic detective agency, but oh, suddenly Gus' boss is being haunted by a ghost and that gives Shawn a chance to prove that what Gus is doing is worthwhile.

The big reveal is that the house is being haunted... by Shawn.

Which makes perfect sense, of course. What are the odds a man's house is suddenly haunted just as he's firing a guy that works at a psychic detective agency? Um, zero. But you overlook this because it's just part of the convention that these improbable, convenient sorts of intersections happen. So the solution -- which should have been OBVIOUS -- is a surprise.

It was a cute trick. It's done every once in a while to good effect.

48 Even though it's on one of Nick Denton's pieces of crap, the original post has it entirely right:  it's all about the ultimate badass (Ah-nuld) going against the ultimate alien.

49 Hollywood is populated by retards.  There are plenty of ideas, but they are too narrow minded and cowardly to break out of their religious mold.  I could talk about making movies out of the Coldfire Trilogy but you guys probably think it's ghey so I won't mention it here.  And Frank Peretti books would be awesome in movies but there's too much actual Christianity in them for the spineless morons.  Peretti's depiction of angels and demons would make them too intense for kids.

Even though they had absolutely no imagination, giving the hero in the second one had a Colt .45, just like in the first one, showed that.

My worry about a remake of Predator is that they'll a) gussy it up with a lot of political correctness about global warming or whatever (maybe gay rights), or b) that it will be as utterly unwatchable as the "Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem" film of a year or so ago. 

Robert Rodriguez has talent, which gives some hope, but he also has an almost Lucasian tendency to overstuff his film with distracting eye-candy.

76 And The Rock is in Race To Witch Mountain which is a remake of Escape to Witch Mountain. I guess that might work because it's a kids movie and it's been so long the age group for it now won't even know about the original, i'd guess. Bit it's still just another remake. Movies seem to be going through the phase music did in the 90's when most songs were just samples of older songs with some nitwit talking over it.

Remakes are easier to do than original ideas, that's nothing new in Hollywood. 

Not all remakes are bad, too.  The Bogart-Huston version of "The Maltese Falcon" was actually the third version.

86 I don't know how to break it to you guys, but Predator really isn't that good a movie. Besides being a direct ripoff of 1980's Without Warning (which feature Cameron Mitchell, and future Academy Award winners Jack Palance and Martin Landau), it's corny, the witticisms are strained, and the racism is abhorrent. (I mean, come on, it's pretty blatantly anti-Jamaican.)

More seriously, the point is Rodriguez probably won't actually remake the film. For all the bitching about remakes here, you'd never know that they're really aren't all that many!

Now, if you want to talk franchises, that's a different story. But actual remakes? Last year you had, oh, Death Race--and that's a reach--and The Day The Earth Stood Still, which I think is also a bit of a reach. (I'm not counting foreign language "remakes", or we could include Quarantine as a remake of the Spanish movie Rec, and Mirrors as a remake of the Japanese movie Millols.) Out of some 200-odd films released last year, that's not a lot.

There are a lot more movies made from franchises, like Bond, Batman, Hulk, etc., and I wouldn't expect that to stop. But then, those were some of the best movies made last year, too.

Anyway, Rodriguez is a pretty good fit for a remake, though, if he can keep it tight. Planet Terror was overblown.

87 I've seen the new Predator script and they've done a great job updating it.

The new movie starts in Iraq, where the Predator is ass-raped by al Queda and turned into a suicide bomber.

Then the Predator goes to New York and all hell breaks loose!

Pure awesomeness!

Jean-Claude Van Damme played the Predator originally
...
Damn, I swear I thought that was Whoopie Goldberg without makeup.

I thought it was Venus Williams.

 

If you're talking about John Carpenter's remake, it's one of my top-ten favorite movies.  Never fails to scare the ever-lovin' crap out of me.

My favorite scene/line is when the spider legs sprout from the guy's severed head and it crawls away:  "You gotta be fucking kidding me."

As much as I like Rodriguez, he'd have done better with Planet Terror if he'd spent more time working the film than working his leading lady. IYKWIMAITTYD.

91 Perhaps, Mr. Cur. Or perhaps you are just ill-tempered. Or both.

Anyway, I did forget one other remake, that of Luce's "The Women". I'm sure you understand.

Oh, also, as far as small monsters go, I believe Roger Corman learned about not making the monster smaller than the leading lady back when he shot It Conquered The World. Damn alien looks like Sigmund and the Sea Monsters.

92 "the parts of Robocop that really elevated it above the ordinary"  In which I would include 1) unprecedentedly bitter cynical portrayal of human nature and institutions, 2) extraordinarily hateful villians, 3) scenes of torture and violence that shock even today.  Both Robocop 1 and 2 highly recommended.

Race To Witch Mountain which is a remake of Escape to Witch Mountain. I guess that might work because it's a kids movie and it's been so long the age group for it now won't even know about the original, i'd guess. Bit it's still just another remake.

Actually, we watched this a month ago and I thought then that it seriously needed a remake.  70's special effects are so cheesy.  BTW: I read the book when I was a kid and it was different and much better than the movie.

96 It's well known among people that spend years of their lives reading about movie trivia.....people kind of like.........uh.......ME.........that Van Damme was the original Predator.

Not only that, after just a few days of filming people were so TIRED of listening to him bitch and whine about how hot it was in that bodysuit the crew couldn't WAIT to get rid of him.

The fact the Predator wasn't really looking anything like what they expected also helped Special Effects coordinator Stan Winston to scrap the old suit (and the whiny punk inside it) and start over. 

Kevin Peter Hall was cast as the new improved Predator, and did a good job in the newly designed suit, which has been the basis for all the Predator related stuff since (Predator 2, Aliens vs Predator, not to mention the comic book novels)

Posted by: Replicator at February 04, 2009 07:36 PM (uSh7j)

97 Hm, never heard about the VanDamme angle. I can see what they were trying to do, and it was a clever idea. Pit the gigantic, musclebound macho men against a lithe, agile monster from space who beats them all except Arnie who has to get clever to win. It just doesn't work on film.

Posted by: Christopher Taylor at February 04, 2009 07:37 PM (PQY7w)

98 Good points about the villians in Robocop.

Kurtwood Smith's portrayal of super-manic criminal Clarence Boddicker is so over the top any subsequent role he has ever had, I keep waiting for him to start saying stuff like:

"Can you fly, Bobby?"

"Cops don't like me.........so I..........don't like..............cops."

"Just gimme my fuckin' phone call!"

99 On other childhood rapage fronts, Disney is finally getting around to making A Princess of Mars, which has never actually been done before. It's being made by Pixar people (but not actual the actual studio). I can't imagine Disney getting bloody swordfights and nekkid alien princesses right, though. I dearly love everything Edgar Rice Burroughs, and if they fuck it up into some PC shitfest...

Posted by: Captain Atom at February 04, 2009 07:42 PM (Hwnlj)

100 ERB's Warlord of Mars has been kicking around studios in one form or another for decades.

Back in the early 1990's I remember hearing that TOM CRUISE was looking to get a project going and it died in development. 

The fact that the books are highly violent with bloody sword fights and half naked 'red' women means Disney is probably going to drop most of the things that made the books cool. 

Then again, they did a bang up job with Pocahantas - remember how the women's lib groups howled that they make Pocahantas waaaay too hot, like a Playboy bunny in a leather dress?

102 Rodriguez was excellent writing and directing El Mariachi, Roadracers, and the first 2/3rds of Desperado.  The problem was that before he finished writing Desperado, everyone in Hollywood started sucking him off and throwing money at him.  Without any constraints of money or ego, he became a swarthier version of Michael Bay.  Seriously, watch Desperado right up until he calls his buddies, then turn it off.

103 Butch Cassidy could actual stand to be remade - the music was horrible, and the filming wasn't anything spectacular. It's just a good script and great acting.

Panic in the Year Zero still works - and could even be the template for a zombie flick.

I Am Legend needs to be remade to actually follow the fucking book. He's supposed to turn out to be a guilt ridden villain at the end, not a martyr. Of course, that would require casting a lead actor who isn't a self-absorbed douche. "Aw hell no!"

105 The socialist asshats are re-deconstructing as many popular movies as they can so that when they finally get to impose their brave new skittletopia upon us they can demonstrate that all the movies known by 'those names' sucked balls. Potentially subversive cinematic moments chronicling the beginning of the end (i.e. the Carter era), will just disappear along with all memories of the original movies they were encoded in.

108 100-

Actually, Rodriguez was attached to the project about 5 years ago, then Kerry Conran, then Favreau. Before that Disney started on models for an animated version in the 90s, but cancelled it because it was public domain, and they couldn't get 5 cents everytime "John Carter" appeared on something.

It made it to story board status in the 70s under American International, intending to star Troy...err, Doug McClure, and probably Caroline Munro as Dejah Thoris, who would have been perfect. Bob Clampett animation tried to get it off the ground in the 30s and 40s.

And if it does get off the ground, 90% of the people who see it will think it is a ripoff of Star Wars, even though the opposite (via Flash Gordon) is true.

113 Random trivia about remakes - there was virtually no continuation from Death Race 2000 to "Death Race".

The new movie was actually based on a shareware video game from the 90s called "Death Rally." Right down to the cars (Come on, a Porsche?). And being on tracks with obstacles instead of cross-country. And armor and defense and offense and powerups...

It was more than kind of sad.

116 "Robocop" and "Predator" prove that 1987 was the greatest year in testosterone cinema history.

Now, to all you anal-retentives bitching about English being spoken in sci-fi films, especially Planet of the Apes - have you ever kissed a girl? If it makes you feel better, here's a mildly logical post-rationalization: they're not speaking English in these movies. The human, English-speaking character and the aliens are using pantomime, body language and other non-verbal cues to get their message across, but since that would be tedious as shit to watch, the filmmaker "translates" it as English. And if the timeframe of the movie is long, we can assume they're learning each other's speech.

This annoys me almost as much as people who complain that American actors don't have accents when playing foreigners. You know why Tom Cruise doesn't have a German accent in Valkyrie? Because he's speaking fuckin' German. Germans don't speak German with a German accent, they just speak German. They speak English with a German accent.
