Creature From The Black Lagoon Remake.

[COAL TIGER]

What's taking so long for this movie to get made?

 

[Doctor Jones]

It's been in development for a long time. They have a director attached. He's doing it after The Crazies or whatever. But yeah, I want this to happen badly.

 

[DarkReflections]

i was extremely mad when i found out cftbl was going to be remade. but lately ive been more and more open to the idea. ive also been wondering lately if universal is going to remake all the monster movies.

 

[COAL TIGER]

Hollywood has already remade most of the original monster films. Dracula, The Invisible Man, Frankenstein, The Mummy, and The Wolfman.

They're remaking George Romero's The Crazies?

Yeah with the guy who made Sahara staring the guy from the crappy Hitman movie. Whats funny is the guy whos directing the crazies was signed on to do Creature as well.

 

[Spider-ManHero12]

I actually really want this to happen. Can't wait!

 

[Doctor Jones]

If it has the right vision it can be good.

I liked Del Toro's take on it when he was attached.

My take would be expanding upon it more. Like Jackson's King Kong but edgier and scarier with a mix between The Thing and Alien.

Doug Jones for Gill-Man!

I wouldn't mind a remake because I always felt that the original was lame anyway.

 

[Doctor Jones]

Lame? Blasphemy!

 

[Drizzle]

I just didn't dig the Creature costume. It didn't look scary at all.

It's 2009. The film was made in 1954. Give it a break.

What? the original is a classic.

 

[Spider-ManHero12]

Lame? Blasphemy!

I second that!

 

[Drizzle]

Oooh, I've caused a stir!

So sue me, I never liked the original one. The creature's too damn cute! Look at him! He looks like some sort of lizard-wookiee.

Now THIS is how you make something look dangerous:

No thanks. The original Creature design was awesome and ahead of it's time in 1954, and love it to the point that I have a cast of one of the original Underwater suit masks.

I would like some slight modifications (like the Steve Wang/ Stan Winston Studios Creature in Monster Squad), but I would like it close to the original design as possible.

Storyline wise, I hope someone digs up John Carpenters Creation-ist themed script for his remake that was planned in the early 90's.

Hell, let's call him back. John did The Thing remake justice.

...sorry, but I think the second one looks more like a "lizard-wookiee". And IMO adding tons of fins does not make something look dangerous.

 

[DarkReflections]

that would be sick to get john to do this remake. he would be perfect for this project.

 

[Spider-ManHero12]

^^ Agreed. Johns a fantastic director.

 

[Spider-ManHero12]

John did The Thing remake justice.

He did more than justice to it. That movie is one of his best. His second best, actually.

 

[cerealkiller182]

Always partial to this design:

 

[DarkReflections]

are there atleast any writers attached to the project yet?

 

[COAL TIGER]

The Gill-Man design was good for it's time but it just wont work today. Com'on

I've always liked this design.

Can you explain Carpenters Creationist theme. The Gill-Man was created in a test-tube or something in his version?
