Must be on crack

Theo in '60's version was actually a legit psychic, which added a lot of character to her. All the characters had some real reason that they were at the house some unique special trait that they were apart of this study some interesting backstory. Not so with the remake!

Can we once and for all put an end to the canard that Burton's 'Charlie & The Chocolate Factory' is truer to the book than Mel Stuart's 'Willy Wonka'? Burton's film restores a couple of minor, superficial things -- the Oompa Loompa chants from the book, the ancillary character of Charlie's father -- but adds a metric ton of new stuff, including a third act that completely betrays the original novel. Burton's film strays much, much further from the the book than Stuart's does. Wonka's childhood, Wonka's father, the fact that it's Wonka who really needs the Buckets and not the other way around? That's all the remake. Characters like Mike Teevee and (arguably) Wonka himself are all but reinvented from the ground up. But those Oompa Loompa chants are word-for-word, so Burton's is somehow deemed the "truer" adaptation. Oh, and the squirrels from the book are here, too. Big whoop. Stuart's film makes a few changes, but they're for good reason. The addition of Slugworth's Everlasting Gobstopper test makes it so that Charlie doesn't win through sheer attrition. He has to earn that victory at the end. The fizzy lifting drink shows that Charlie, too, is fallible. And ditching Charlie's father just makes sense. The character is dull and serves no dramatic function. Without him, the story becomes about Wonka's search for a son and Charlie's search for a father. With him still in the picture, the connection between Wonka and Charlie is much less resonant.

I really feel like both Slugworth and the fizzy lifting drink performed the same dramatic function, and the fizzy lifting drink was done worse. They're both honesty tests, but not only is Grandpa Joe the one egging Charlie on to try it, (Despite being the moral standing for Charlie in both the book and the remainder of the movie, so I don't get it) meaning it wasn't Charlie who decided to do wrong, but he was allowed a chance to repent when the other kids had horrible things happen to them without a chance for a "sorry". If that scene had followed the book's logic, he would have gotten chopped up by the ceiling fan. And I don't understand what you mean by father/son relationship in the movie as well- Wonka was more of a mystical mentor, I thought, and Grandpa Joe had the father role. The Slugworth honesty test was great, though- much closer to the original book's intention. After all, Wonka wouldn't want someone who's as tempted by something as common and silly as money- he wants someone to carry on the wonder. That was a good change, actually, I feel that Charlie did earn his victory by not being tempted, rather than just not touching anything. Just my thoughts, though.

3 Fun Facts about this movie: 1) the mansion used as the haunted mansion (the exterior only) was actually the Harlaxton Manor in Lincolnshire, England, 2) the Harlaxton Manor is owned by the University of Evansville and is actually used as a campus for study-abroad students from the University of Evansville and other schools (it's the #1 study abroad location in the nation), and 3) I was actually there THIS YEAR in January for 4 months! And no, we're not proud of that movie.

I have not seen the original, but I have read the book. They explain how the house is built in a weird way that makes you feel disoriented. So I got the feeling that the characters were going crazy and not the house being haunted. Eleanor seems to be weird/crazy even before she gets to the house. It's definitely an interesting character study and I really want to see the original film.

At least the Ghostbusters remake had some redeemable qualities and even one of the few live action films with good 3D if you saw it that way. It was mediocre. This is just plain bad.

Worst remake for me is Rob Zombie's Halloween. Carpenter clearly showed that the minimal amount of explanation we got from Loomis on Michael's mental state in the original was enough. So right off the bat Zombie fucks all over that by trying to "explain" it for like the first half of the movie*. And then not content with ending there he managed to make an even worse film with his Halloween 2, the worst film in the whole series, and when we're talking about a series that has had a movie where Michael rapes his underage niece (producer's cut of 6) and a movie where Busta Rhymes beats Michael with karate (8), that's saying something. *what's funny is that psychologically explaining your antagonist can work, you just know how to restrain yourself. Hannibal Rising was a piece of shit because it showed way too much and included stupid elements like Nazis tricking Hannibal into eating his sister. The TV series Hannibal fixes this as we get far less information about Hannibal's past other than little bits here and there and when his sister's fate is revealed Hannibal says he couldn't understand the concept of his sister loving him and vice versa and eventually rationalized this as her deliberately influencing him so he killed and ate her. THAT works because it's simple and to the point.

Eh I like his remake. At least its different and creative. Most horror remakes just re hash the 1st movie and don't do anything new. Nightmare on elm street (2010) being the worst.

Did you hear about what John Carpenter said recently? He said that Rob Zombie lied about Carpenter's response to the remake. Zombie said he was very bitter, when really, he just told him to do what he wanted.

+Nameless Avenger Halloween resurrection dint take itself to seriously.............look how well that turned out.

31:08 "It's about family, Grandpa!" The way Rob said that killed me. XD

Keep in mind Rob and Doug, Jan de Bont was intending to direct the Godzilla remake instead of Roland Emmerich.

what do you think of the remake of 13 Ghosts with Matthew Lillard?

I understand that level of hate. For me, the most disrespectful remake is Godzilla 1998. I was SOOOOOOOOOOOOO pissed after watching them get something that I love so wrong.

You could make an argument Crimson Peak is a pretty good remake of The Haunting. Might not be super scary but it is creepy as all hell and the effects and set design are amazing.

You want to talk about disrespecting the original. What about the remake of Psycho? That is the most pointless remake ever.

Absolutely. It wasn't even awful (since it was a shot for shot redo) but you're right. Utterly pointless.

Gregory House That was the remake, right. I actually enjoy the original "The Fog" with Jamie Lee Curtis. Not a great film but a lot of fun. Good for Halloween.

Gregory House In fact, maybe one 'Nostalgaween' Doug ought to take a look at that one and the rest of Jamie Lee Curtis' scream queen period films. I don't know if he's done Halloween yet or not but that one and the sequel plus Terror Train might make a nice set.

Gregory House Ahh well I don't think any of the Halloween films are worth talking about after the first two. Halloween 3, which I saw years ago is just...weird. But that makes sense. These guys tend to coordinate their reviews. One Curtis film that I would love ANYBODY to discuss is "Road Games' which is a neat little psychological thriller that seems to have been completely forgotten.

Thanks for carrying on for us! You guys are the best, and I adore your reviews!

I played Theo in a stage adaptation once and had read the original novel, but hadn't seen any of the films. I remember the week before we opened, around Halloween time, I saw it playing on tv and though what the hell, I'll watch it and was... so confused by what I had just watched.

I appreciate all that you guys do. Seriously some of the greatest content on youtube. I seriously hated to hear the news. You guys are great. Smart and funny. Keep on truckin.

I love how Doug was getting ready to rant in the beginning of the video.

I hate this movie with a burning passion.

Hope you're feeling better and i feel bad i cant really say anything new or original other than time will heal. it might not be tomorrow or the week after or the month, year, however long. were with you all the way guys. much love from New Jersey

I really want to hear what you two think of the trailer of the Netflix adaptation! I personally like the trailer and can't wait for it!

Robocop? I didn't dislike it. I thought that it was a decent movie. But the remake was focused a lot more on the action scenes and not so much on the actual message: "What makes us human?" from the original movie.

If it has the same title and the same characters, it's a remake in my eyes. And it's my personal least favorite. Also, didn't Vacation already have several sequels (I've actually never seen the original, but I absolutely can't stand the 2015 one)?

Killpop3313 Vacation is the story of the son in the classic films taking his own kids to the theme park. It's a sequel.

google doesn't even count this as a horror film. "mystery/fantasy".

@channel Awesome I love the Real Thoughts, but I kinda of wish there was some visuals mix into what they are talking about.

I sometimes confuse this film with the "House on Haunted Hill" remake released in the same year. They have somewhat similar premises too, and I would love to see a review of that.

i just realised, Doug has Trigun the manga. on the shelf next to Rob's head. I have those too. Huh. never thought he'd like that

This video made me think of a Nostalgiaween month I'd like to see, Haunted House Remake Month! Week 1: Repost - The Haunting, Week 2: House on Haunted Hill remake, Week 3: House of Wax remake, Week 4: Thirteen Ghosts remake.

Well since we're on the subject of shitty remakes, how about a real thoughts on a good remake, the Great Gatsby (2013) with Leonardo DiCaprio

A good one to do for October would be the 1980 version of "The Fog" if you haven't done that one yet.

Can someone link me the original movie, preferably an amazon link, all I'm finding is the silly TV show.

I would watch a two hour tour of that house though. The architecture was genuinely interesting through the movie. Hated the characters, wanted to explore the house.

That Lawrence Kasdan movie you're gonna review is Dreamcatcher, isn't it?

Thank you, Rob! Crap happening to eyes and fingers are the things that get me too, so I'm happy to know I'm not alone.

Based on something Rob said, ARE YOU GUYS DOING DREAMCATCHER THIS HALLOWEEN?!

I tried to watch the review cause I hadn't watched it in awhile. Looks like it got taken down? :/

Ya’ll gonna watch and give your thoughts on the Haunting at Hill House on Netflix?
