Would you watch a second remake of The Fly?

>>70593517
so when he turns into the fly does he lose his intelligence
>>
>>70593517
No. Original brundlefly is best fly
>>
I would love to see a version where brundle turns into a fly monster and the fly turns into a humanoid.

As long as it wasn't a cgi shit fest.
>>
>>70593998
>this
strictly intensive make-up and costume would be god tier. it's also a rare occurrence in Hollywood today. producers are always ecstatic to fork out thousands of dollars to shitty CGI and it's cementing the death of talented make-up artists.
>>
>>70594131
True.
Older films like The Thing hold up well today, so you would think they should be able to achieve some amazing things with modern practical effects.
But no, they usually take the lazy, money saving route.

would it be more horror or more of a drama?

what like a tiny fly sized man?
>>
I would avoid watching it, but I would shitpost about it.
>>
>>70594719
no human size, anthropomorphic

This film legit scared the FUCK out of me when i watched it, i was around 12 l0l

>>70593517
It's already been perfected. Why remake it. You wouldn't remake jaws, it perfected what it was trying to do already
>>
>>70593563
No, he tried to operate the teleporter after he became the fly.
>>
>>70593878
This actually looks neat.
>>
>>70593986

The fly turns into a hideous humanoid monster, but he doesn't understand his existence and doesn't want to hurt anyone, so he becomes a homeless guy hiding from the authorities.
>>
>>70594131
>>70594188
>muh practical effects
Can we fucking stop. Yes, early stages of CGI looked like ass. Yes, Jurassic park still holds up because of practical effects. In the very near future, however, there'll be zero comparison. Just fucking stop with this practical effect bullshit, and instead call for good CGI.

There are no insect politicians. He'd fuck people up, but he'd be dumb as shit and get shot by cops.
>>
>>70593517
If you remake the original and not try to remake DCron's I might.
>>
Holy shit OP, thanks for making this thread. I've been meaning to watch this movie but I noticed there are versions that are edited. Does anyone know which version is completely unchanged? Also is that version the best version to watch?
>>
>>70593517

I like this image a lot. There should be more movies where someone slowly turns into something. Not necessarily a remake of the fly though.
>>
>>70593517
Only if Cronenburg was behind it.

Hobo-Fly has an active sex drive with no human morality, so he becomes a rapist. Discuss.
>>
>>70596137
To fully explore that kind of socio-political commentary you would need to make extensive use of high level graphic sexual violence scenes.
>>
>>70596507
Fly-cocks looks like morningstars. This painful penetration is symbolic of the animal within each rapist.

Zizek is that you?

No
Just because it's plain not necessary

CGI will always look fake on its own, it's best used to augment practical effects.

There's no reason why there should be a remake.

Meh. I think the first fly remake was kinda cool but the original is still so much better.

The Fly was never about body horror. It's about empathy for the scientist's plight and how he has to handle his new body.

That's like making a Metamorphosis movie and making the transformation into a giant bug something massively disgusting that takes away from the humor and the story.

If they remade it now, the fly is guaranteed to be shit CGI since i doubt they would give them much money for it. And if it turned out bad, I would shoot up a school. Honestly, with all the backlash video games got for the violence in America, its time americans started fighting back against shit remakes the only way they know how. Keep shooting up schools until they stop making them.
>>
>>70593517
Good ol' Cronenberg body horror is deader than disco

Only if they fully committed it to making it as repulsive as they possibly could
Also no CGI

They did that in animorphs with an ant, it gained the morphing power by accident and turned into a human.
It just sat there screaming.
