What movie should she remake?

08-19-2004, 11:49 AM

Seeing that there are topics about who JLH should duet with, co-star with, and what songs to cover, but no "what movies she should be in a remake of," I thought I'd ask then. So what movies, if any, would everyone like to see her in a remake of?

I'm not a huge fan of remakes, although The Italian Job was pretty cool.
I always thought that Love would make a good Lara Croft :D
But as far as remakes go, i suppose an obvious choice would be Breakfast At Tiffanys.

Again I'm against it.
I really loved The Italian Job and Gone In 60 Seconds, both are far better than the original I would say, also The Texas Chainsaw wasn't that bad. But still I prefer to see new movies.
We have already many remakes and TOO many sequals. So new movies please [img]smile.gif[/img]

It's not reall a remake, bu BATTLE OF THE PLANETS, Scould be Princess. A perfect super hero roll, it the movie was done right. I will work on the Sript avery =)

BASIC INSTINCT!!!!! [img]graemlins/thumbs.gif[/img] Not for the obvious reason either. But look what that movie did for Sharon Stone. It would turn Love Hewitt into a MEGA star, get rid of her teeny bop image and she would get tons of movie offers if she played that role.

I was going to post this question, as I have posted most of the others. I couldn't think of anything to remake, outside of the possibly obvious Audrey Hepburn movies.

I have heard of her interest in being the next Wonder Woman, though. I don't know what the status is on that project, but a lot of super hero and comic book movies are in the works. I think she'd make a great Wonder Woman (or anything else for that matter ;) ).

How about 'Gone With The Wind'.... [img]smile.gif[/img]

I would love to see Love wearing dresses like that, I think she would look gorgeous... [img]graemlins/faint.gif[/img]

LOVE YOUNG GIFTED & GORGEOUS

Looking4Love · 08-20-2004, 07:02 AM

A period piece like Gone with the Wind would be cool. How about The Sound of Music, or some other musical? [img]smile.gif[/img]

The Tuxedo.

They should remake it into a decent movie. :D

08-20-2004, 08:51 PM

LOL herbert!
I disagree with the Audrey Hepburn movie suggestions for the most part -- only because she took such a critical beating for playing Audrey in the TV movie. So I would skip the Audrey romantic comedy remakes for sure. But ...
"Wait Until Dark" is one scary-ass movie. Audrey Hepburn plays a blind woman being stalked by drug dealers. Awesome flick -- rent it if you haven't seen it. I think that pic would be ripe for a remake and I bet Love would do a great job in a dramatic thriller like that. More character-driven than the horror movies she has done.

**andrew r** · 08-20-2004, 09:06 PM

I'll agree with BooBoo on this. Though I've not seen it, the story does have the potential for Love to display her great acting talents.

Looking4Love · 08-21-2004, 12:24 AM

My 3rd reply... [img]smile.gif[/img] ...How about The Wizard of Oz? I'm not talking about some weird version like The Wiz (with Michael Jackson and Diana Ross), nor a straight, line for line thing. I think she'd be soooo cute as Dorothy.

It's not probably something that she would do if it were offered, considering how she's trying to get away from the cutesy stuff, but I think that if it were written smartly enough, it could be good. [img]smile.gif[/img]

R@H · 08-21-2004, 01:15 PM

Remakes are usually bad, I'd rather see her have a major come back with new material [img]smile.gif[/img]

**superboy** · 08-21-2004, 02:24 PM

Herberlens your one funny son of a gun! I think JLH should star in a remake of... hmmmm I can't really think of anything..lol

08-21-2004, 06:44 PM

Hey....!

I agree with the most of you that she shouldn't do remakes since remakes almost never becomes a hit... But if she HAD to do one I think she really would enjoy being in something like "Grease".... And I think I would enjoy it too!

now that i think about it, she could be good as sandy in grease. she can sing, dance, can play the sweet girl that sandy plays most of the movie, and the red hot girl she is at the end.

**andrew r** · 08-22-2004, 05:42 AM

Who would you have play the John Travolta role then?

The thing about acting in a remake is, she'll probably be compared to another actress, most of the time its unfair comparison.
I'd like to see her in a remake of Pretty Woman.
But Julia Roberts did a heck of a job there. So she would really have to pull of something great to top that.
