Magic Mieke as not only a reboot of Magic Mike, but a sequel to Eurotrip starring the same girl and maybe Harriet the Spy (haven't seen what she looks like these days to make a full judgement yet). Throw in Fiona (Kristin Kreuk) if she isn't in jail for the sex cult stuff.

More like Quint because you get the satisfaction knowing she will get eaten.

Why make a new movie that may suck when you can remake a classic we already know is good with a fresh take and hire some minority actors? Win win, you know the movie is gonna be great but you can also give ethnic actors and female actors a chance to further their careers and reach a wider audience.

So you need an established character to be of a certain different ethnic or female to feel good about your own image? Kind of make you easy to be manipulated by Hollywood.

Not really just makes the movie better than the original when you add a string female or ethnic cast.

The Godfather would be awesome with a LGBTQIA-friendly plot. How fabulous would Sonny be in a dress? And Michael could kill the dirty cop in a Trans- friendly spinning class. And Fredo would just be free to join the family Floral business. It would be hugely appealing to millennials who don’t have the patience for the original.

The last samurai was actually a good casting. Brad Pitt is supposed to play the outsider in that film. Were basically seeimg the Rise of the Meji Era in Japan from an American perspective.

White males don’t already get enough good roles? We gotta remake a classic black film with white males now? Let’s remake A Color Purple with an all white male cast while we’re at it.
