They've remade seemingly every film and TV series from the 1960s through 1980s. Now they are starting on the 1990s films/shows. How long until 2000s films start getting remade?

I give it 7-10 years. Maybe even less.

^They already did! And they're remaking THAT one this summer with that execrable Disney teen flick.

Just so long it's bad movies from the 2000s, the ones that had a good premise but bad execution.

Just so long it's bad movies from the 2000s, the ones that had a good premise but bad execution. I often see good ideas badly executed. An example of this is the film The Girl from Chicago (1932), a good storyline but ruined by direction that makes Ed Wood's films look like Gone with the Wind and some of the worst acting ever committed to film. The good storyline really deserves a second chance. |

I heard rumors a few years ago that they wanted to remake American Psycho (2000), but it seems as though that idea was quickly scrapped. Now, they want to make it into a T.V. series. That's the new trend.
It would have been utterly ridiculous to remake/reboot a film that only came out 11 years ago at the time.
It's also bad enough they made that piss-poor excuse of a sequel American Psycho II: All American Girl (2002). I mean, wow, it hardly has any connection to the original film. It only bears the name.

There was no American Psycho 2, I think you'd better go. |

It used to be a standard of about 20 years for nostalgia to kick in and old things "be cool" again. The current generation of ADD and short attention spans seems to be cutting that in half. Plus the total lack of originality and creativity is spawning massive and rapid remakes, reboots, whatever... |

And, just to think, the guy who wrote that spoof article wrote it ten years ago. In the meanwhile... |

Matthew the SwordsmanThere was a 2014 film of "Veronica Mars" which was a 3-season cult hit from 2004-2007. It wasn't a reboot or origin story, though. It took up the characters from the TV show 10 years later.
