Green Lantern | Remake This Movie RIGHT!

 

Green Lantern is the focus for our cinematic architects this week, so listen below as we discuss how we would reboot the 2011 Ryan Reynolds film based on the popular DC Comics character.

Originally telling the story of pilot Hal Jordan as he is gifted with the powers of the Green Ring of Power, the film was seen as a visual feast, yet somehow missed its mark with audiences. In the years since its release in 2011, Green Lantern has been maligned by fans and critics alike. Was it fair? Is the original really THAT bad? Maybe it is time for a new vision of the Green Lantern Corp. Maybe, it’s time to Remake This Movie RIGHT!

What IS Remake This Movie RIGHT?

Remake This Movie RIGHT! is a bi-weekly podcast where we take a classic film that is actively being remade by Hollywood studio execs, and craft our own version for a modern retelling. Does the story need updating? Should characters or motives be tweaked? Do we need more muppets? We take all factors into account, concoct our film, and then offer a Final Pitch to you in movie trailer form. By the end of each episode, we will Remake This Movie RIGHT!

Our show is broken down into three distinct parts:

The Original: We discuss the original film’s impact on us and history, some quick trivia bits, what worked the best from the film and therefore must remain in our upcoming remake, as well as what didn’t work or what needs to be changed for today’s audiences. Most importantly, should this film even be remake?

The Remake: We put together our movie! What story do we want to tell, how close to the original will it be, who will star, and ultimately who should direct our eventual cinematic masterpiece? Our hosts work together to put together one cohesive movie, but there is one caveat – Each host has one ‘CUT!’ throughout the episode to employ, which could completely derail the entire film.

The Final Pitch: This is where we summarize our remake by utilizing the voice talents of voiceover artist Wayne Henderson and present our finished remake to you in movie trailer form!
