So began furthering the apprentice's training last night with Pitch Black, and thought..."Riddick Trilogy (soon to be quad Grin) can't be touched."

Riddick was so odd for me...like i know factually i watched them but i cant recall anything but Vin Diesel's voice, a lot of sand, and one specific line. Not to say it wasnt memorable it just felt like a weird fever dream. Should rewatch those movies.

So i went to suggest this and it turns out they actually *are* remaking this but ill say it anyway - Dune deserves a remake! The movie doesnt hold a candle to the book imo.

I have been disappointed by Dune, both the movie and the SyFy Channel mini-series, that I am filled with a mix of anticipation and dread regarding the upcoming remake.  The book is so good, and so detailed, I really don't see how they'll be able to make a movie worth watching and still not exceed the bladder capacity of movie audiences.

Yes you should. Yes they're a bit on the macho-cheesy side that we fell in love with in the 80s, but we wouldn't expect anything less from a Vin Diesel movie? I love them because I love a great anti-hero, and Riddick is exactly that.

Agreed. I've been told that the best one to date was the one from the 80s, and I felt that one barely scratched the book.

I really love Pitch Black found Chronicles of Riddick too drastic a shift in tone and storytelling. Riddick was better, although still not great. But Vin is great as the character.

That and the Director's cut completely undid the backstory of his eyes.

I wouldn't mind a Justice League remake. Either that or Snyder's version.

There is no Synder version. But a Justice League remake would be good. Maybe have a battle as amazing as the Gods/races of men/Amazonians/Green Lanterns vs Steppenwolf that we had as 1 min flashback.

Well technically the SnyderCut does exist. Snyder and Momoa have both confirmed it, and Momoa has watched it. Officially, it does not exist though.

Well if you count a version of the film nowhere near ready for release, with few if any special effects scenes, sound editing or colour grading added and a lot of greenscreen remaining, then yes, the Synder cut exists.

Yes, that is what people mean by the Snyder Cut.  According to Kevin Smith its about 3 hours long and is very rough.  But hard core DCEU fans want it released anyway

I know they are thinking of remaking this movie, but I'm hoping they don't, An American Werewolf in London.

*Edit* Just read that due to the allegations against Max Landis, his remake of this has been cancelled. And it's looking increasingly unlikely that any studios will want to pursue it, even with another writer/director attached. So, that's good news

Maybe I'm too much of a  movie purist but I don't count that as a "cut".
