    I don't think they really need a reboot, but maybe another sequel.

    It's not really a franchise but I'd love to see a Judge Dread reboot.

    Oh. I guess I was thinking about Raiders' comment...

    Hm, I haven't seen the whole thing, but what I have seen was very good, I thought. Very much in line with the original text.
    ...which had me thinking about the book, of which Branagh's film changes drastically.

    Branagh's version changes significantly less than Whale's version though.

    This thread title is ridiculous and hilarious.

    So my answer will be ridiculous, too.

    Darren Aronofsky and Terry Gilliam alternating and half-collaborating on installments in a reboot of the Star Wars series.

    Not only would the Lucas people never let it happen, it also wouldn't happen because neither of those directors can get films made.

    Buckaroo Banzai and the World Crime Syndicate.

    I've been waiting about 25 years for that movie.
