The Mission Impossible movies are more popular than the series. It's also as if people forget the first three and they turned into a new series with 4.
No one cares for the novel.
No one cares for the unofficial 1907 movie.
No one cares for the 1925 movie.
The 1959 movie bomb everything away.
The 2016 was shit, but probably more people know it then the 1907 and 1925 movies.
Rewatched this recently and it was way different than I remembered. Turns out that I watched the inferior director's cut which wildly changed the ending and the entire tone of the movie.
Theatrical cut >>>>>>>>>> Director's cut
That part was alright but it came immediately after Seymour feeding Audrey to the plant which made no fricking sense and made me lose interest in the movie.
There needs to be a supercut where they both live and the plants still take over somehow.
>made no fricking sense
It was a her dying wish (made out of love for Seymour) and he was distraught and self-punishing. It's sad but more interesting than happily ever after.
If you got half a brain, you'd realize the "happily ever after" ending isn't that at all. They cut down to the plant in the garden to symbolize that even though seymore killed the plant, it's still there. Because, you know, you don't kill two people and mutilate their bodies, then lie to a chick to get into her scrawny ass pants after killing her boyfriend, then just move on after all that and live happily ever after with her. Seymore is a still a monster for what he did, and he'll probably kill that b***h too, plant or no plant telling him to do it.
The whole movie is sort of a masterpiece of tongue-and-cheek morality like that.
>B-but I didn't kill anybody!!!! >I just held a gun on him which caused him to panic and his drugs mask to malfunction, and that's what killed him. Even though, I mean yeah, officer, ain't going to lie I would have probably killed him anyway if that didn't happen. Still, as she sits, totally innocent now. >Oh, my boss? No no, didn't kill him either. I just slowly backed him up into the open maw of a talking carnivorous plant, because it was singing for me to do so. So i mean, it was the plants fault, really, not mine, when you think about it. I can understand the confusion though, so when these charges getting dropped btw? I got some bony ass to plow later, bruh.

This stuff got a proper release? I had to go through such lengths to see this footage back in the day.
The reason the DVD with the shitty workprint footage of the original end was pulled was because Frank Oz was pissed they released it like that. He said he had it in good quality and planned to release it one day. I guess he eventually did.
It's pretty much the only release you can find via legal channels. Any DVD of the Theatrical Version will be long out of print.
Do they still play Mean Green Mother in the director’s cut
It's in there, but what ISN'T is my favorite gag in the whole movie. I had to hunt down the original to make this webm

I'm specifically talking about the drum hit and Da-Doo when John Candy's eyebrows fly up. The Director's Cut removes these sounds entirely for no apparent reason.
yes. the theatrical is still very good, albeit with a happy ending.
the only reason to watch the director's cut is the insane amount of effort (1 year) that was put into the last scene.
I fricking love the greek chorus girls how they sang but also had double roles as minor characters. I noticed on rewatch at the beginning it's raining in the street but none of them get wet, the rain in the studio just parts around them as they sang. Every song they sing is a banger. This movie cured my racism for 90 minutes.
>john candy
What? He's in this movie? I haven't seen this in years but I do not recall him.
Kick ass soundtrack by the way.
Come on. Come on.
It's suppertime.
>Start with movie in 1960
>Movie gets musical adaptation
>1986 Remake adapts the adaptation and not the original movie
Has anything like this every happened besides this? Something where the original version is the least iconic
The Thing fits this pretty well. People only remember the Carpenter and the 2011 remake, not the 1951 movie or the book.
Also Magnificent Seven was a remake of a remake but it's debatable whether Seven Samurai is more iconic.
>people remember only
>the 2011 remake
lol. LMAO even!
The 1951 movie is kino. Probably the only time a 50s monster horror uninronically worked.
Scarface. The average person doesn't even know it's a remake of a 1932 movie that's loosely based on Al Capone.
A lot of music covers made the original songs disappear from the public eye.
>I Love Rock 'n Roll
>Tainted Love
>Surfin' Bird
>Hey Mickey
Movie-wise, Scarface is the one I think fits best.
Twist and Shout is up there too
All Along the Watchtower
kind of shook me as a young lad when I learned it was a Dylan original
Add Torn to the list. In fact I'm surprised the Torngay isn't here right now.
House of the Rising Sun also. The Animals version became the definitive version.
Don’t forget Hurt
ignoring the last part of your post, The Producers was a non-musical, then a stage musical, then a movie musical same as LSoH
There's probably other examples
Oh, not ignoring the last part of your post, Rent is based on a 100 year old opera named La Boheme
The Producers
The Simpsons started out as a side thing for The Tracey Ullman Show
I don't know but this post made me realize an evil dead musical adaptation would be based as frick.
>an evil dead musical adaptation would be based as frick.
It is, anon. I saw it a few years ago.
Dr Doolittle
Hairspray
Blade Runner 2049 a sequel to a heavily cut up adaption of a novel
Whenever I see his face all I can think about is that knockout
I own a copy of this movie with jack nicholson from the shining on the cover
You have to be 18 to post here
No, I mean literally a picture of him from the movie where he's chopping the door down
Weird. I'm pretty sure he was the dentist (or patient) in the original one.
Yeah, Bill Murray's character from OP.
wtf!
That's idubbbz, you idiot!
Take a photo of it and show us

Ben Hur maybe.
No one cares for the novel.

No one cares for the 1925 movie.
The 1959 movie bomb everything away.
The 2016 was shit, but probably more people know it then the 1907 and 1925 movies.
There were also a lot of stage plays.
The only part of the 2016 movie I can remember is the naval battle where he's a galley slave and their boat gets rammed. Great scene
Yeah, the novel was a gigantic gilded age bestseller with like thirty reprints.
The Wonderful Wizard of Oz was adapted for both the stage and screen about a dozen times before the famous Judy Garland version
forgot link
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adaptations_of_The_Wizard_of_Oz
This is a good example. Though Return to Oz famously bucked this trend by sticking more to the sequel books.
It's very one of a kind and eccentric
wish there were more horror musicals
>Cosette as a deadite
lazy but kinda genius
I want to put my dick in the plant

That was in the directors cut I saw somehow.
>"Yes, I am a dentist. How did you know?"
>that pic
Not all heroes wear capes
take my upvote good sir!
I never noticed moranis's DSLs before. He probably gives some sloppy toppy.
John Candy is barely in the movie, why is he on the poster?
Because he's John Candy
I didn't know this was a musical the first time I put it on. It's very good though.
Do they still play Mean Green Mother in the director’s cut
It always looked weird, and stupid. People always say it's a great movie or something but I won't watch it.
Wow, nobody cares.
Cast the inevitable remake of the remake
>Tom Holland as Seymour
>Ariana Debose as Audrey
>Taika Waititi as Orin
>Daveed Diggs as Audrey II
>White protagonist
>Black antagonist
Could never happen
.
?
kino
I found a pussycat and bashed its head
I watched it for the first time a couple months ago. Is the normal version worth watching if I saw the directors cut!
yes. the theatrical is still very good, albeit with a happy ending.
the only reason to watch the director's cut is the insane amount of effort (1 year) that was put into the last scene.
I fricking love the greek chorus girls how they sang but also had double roles as minor characters.

The mother from My Wife and Kids, the mother from Everybody Hates Chris, and the other one. I always wonder if she gets mad about that.
