Reboot is becoming a word that is thrown around too much these days.
ST, TIH, BB, CR, are all reboots that worked and because they needed to be rebooted.
Most reboots that were needed. I went to wikipedia and looked up the reboots that are in production
The Final Destination. No thoughts on that
A Nightmare on Elm Street. The first Freddy movie was in 1984 with the last one being in 1994. If they wanted to do a sequel than yes I think a reboot is a good idea. Most of us saw what happened last time when someone tried to stay in the same continuity as a dead film series in the 90s

. But I do think it was even unnecessary to release a 2nd movie at all..
Mortal Kombat: Devastation. Yeah if they want to make a new one then it would be better to have a reboot rather than trying to keep in with the same continuity of the old series
Daredevil. Most of the cast doesnt want to return, fans have been asking for a reboot. I think its a plausible reason to reboot
The First Avenger: Captain America.Ya it needs a reboot
I do agree to an extent that it is thrown around too much. I find it annoying and stupid when people want to reboot the Spiderman series because of SP3 or people who want to reboot the Batman series nowbecause it wont get any better than TDK. Those are 2 stupid ideas for reboots.
I don't understand WHY in the name of Optimus Prime, crap like Battleship, Monopoly, Asteroids and a bubblegum brand are getting movies when instead they could be making a fortune from stuff like:
1. Metal Gear Solid: The history of WAR itself as told by the James Cameron Of Video Gaming.
2. Bioshock: Atlas Shrugged. The Movie. nuff said
3. Superman Reboot: 70 GODDAMN YEARS OF HISTORY YOU WARNER MORONS!!!!
4. Gargoyles: A modern take on the ye old tales of witchcraft and wizardry. Starring devilish beasts as heroes and a Lex Luthor archetype as the villain.
Oh and it's a ... DISNEY product. Talk about class...
5. A REAL GI Joe movie: I'm talking Black Hawk Down + GI Joe Resolute based on the epic IDW comic series...
6. Movies about DC superheros who are not nocturnal creatures or pseudo-jesus:
7. Something original
8. Movies based on The Call Of Cthullu
9. Movies based on the Fallout video games (A grittier and wackier Mad Max)
10. A movie that makes fun of internet forums and their crazy members
I will add
11. A Gears of War film. They announced it and it fizzled. It could actually be a real cool sci-fi war movie and it was supposed to be released next year, but no cast, no shooting date I doubt it
12. Halo film. Even though I dont think it'll be hard to make the payoff would be huge. It would be one of the biggest films ever
13. Enders Game series
14. Zoids: New Century Zero, Samurai X (the OVAs), and Gundam Wing are the 3 animes I think can actually be made into films and be successful. But a Samurai X movie should be made indie so they can cast an Asian cast
