    Post the good ideas, bad ideas, horrible ideas, and your ideas here.

    I just read about this, I am skeptical (Abrams) but it could be pretty damn cool.

    If you’re worried that J.J. Abrams wants to reboot everything you loved when you were younger...sources tell us that [the guy] who helped revive the film franchises for Star Trek and Star Wars, is attached to direct a reboot of the 1983 sci-fi/fantasy flop Krull for Warner Bros.

    Krull was ****ing badass.

    I want live action Thundarr The Barbarian. That seems like a property primed for a comeback.

    There's one I would kind of like to see

    The Neverending Story

    I'd love to see it with today's technology. I watched it for the first time in decades a few years ago and it was kind of disappointing. Still love the story but it would look so much cooler today.

    Would love for them to do that and include more from the book. I remember reading it as a kid and daydreaming about The Desert of Colors, an ever-shifting desert where the sand constantly changes colors.

    Swamp Thing would be a 100% go, but I do think they're thinking about it, not sure who though.

    What about also things that 'they' did, but did not do right?

    "First Blood"

    ...next?

    There's no need for a Ladyhawke remake.

    Hawk The Slayer was another British fantasy box office bomb from the 80s. Krull had better actors playing the support characters but HTS had cooler support characters.

    That's no way to hustle.

    A Metroid animated series would be all kinds of badass.

    Did you know that Hatebeak is a band that exists...American Death Metal and the vocalist is an african grey parrot. No lie.

    The band's sound has been described as "a jackhammer being ground in a compactor"

    A Gillian’s Island reboot where it’s not a comedy but a dark narrative like the fresh Prince remake.

    It was only supposed to be a three hour cruise…
