Simple enough, explain how you'd fix a movie you feel had potential, but were displeased with & leave another title for the next person. Black Christmas '06 -Move the backstory to the opening -Cut the mental institution bits -Give Clair lines -Introduce Leigh earlier -Cut Kelli, Megan, & Kyle completely from the film -Add some non-trashy guys into the mix -Made Eve less weird -Have creepier phone calls -Replace repetitive/ridiculous deaths -Extend the time to more than one night Spoiler: click to toggle Freddy vs Jason? |

The fact it's beyond redemption for some people. I see some good things about it. ![]() Oop Sorority Row then. . - Made it the House Mother they killed a la the original. Crenshaw is her replacement. The cane is kept and she's still named Dorothy Slater. With a different prank all together. - Made the killer much less obvious. In fact, I'd make the Kyle killer reveal the real deal. Jess is his accomplice. Jess spilled the beans, Kyle saw that his fiancee (I'd have them at that level in this) did this horrible act. Jess is afraid the other girls are on the verge of spilling the beans, so they set out to make it look like someone wanted to kill all the Theta's and came back to finish the job. Jessica is the brains, plans to pin it all on her psycho boyfriend (including Slater's death) and walk away the sole survivor. - Given the killer a mask on top of the robes. Something scary and foreboding. - Given it a better final girl. Claire, Jamie Chung, would be my first choice. - Completely gotten rid of Maggie, she was just a red herring. - Since Garrett's GF isn't dead omitted him going crazy at the end of the movie. The cliffhanger is absolutely non-existent here. Made him more of a character. - Let Chugs live longer and maybe even survive. - Kept Ellie's transformation at the end. But made it a much more organic transition. Maybe she's a little tougher following what happened. - Thrown in some sort of throwback to the creepy-as-fuck Jester scene in the original. - Ended it on the burning house (keeping that part) and three people coming out (girls and boy, or just girls) as police arrive. An intense final shot. Carrie (2013) |

-Somehow find a way for Shailene Woodley to say yes, or cast Haley Bennett. Chloe Grace Moretz just didn't work as Carrie. -Make the cyber bullying more relevant and integral to the plot. -Develop the characters more -Make the humor of the film awkward in a good way, not bad way -Improve Sue and Carrie's relationship -Keep the found footage element if only briefly to give the character some importance (think the opening of All Cheerleaders Die) -Show the town completely ruined after the events. -Keep the alternate ending or have another really strange and odd jump scare at the end. The Purge |

-Abort it from existence since 2 films alone haven't gotten the concept close to right enough for me to care about the series enough to implement any major changes that it needs Chopping Mall (even if I find it amazing, I wanted 2 c if any1 would have anything 2 change)?

Oh jeez this is a tough one. - Make it R-rated. A little gorier. Not much though. - Had Max's mom at least wound or do something big to Billy before Max comes in to really give it to him. To give the title "The Final Girls" more meaning. - Given Paula (Chloe Bridges) a bit more of a character before she dies. - Given Kurt more screentime, and kept him around a bit longer. He was hilarious. - Made the "Camp Bloodbath" movies a franchise rather than two movies (even if we don't know it isn't I'd make this clear). Make it the Friday the 13th of this world, leaving room for endless sequel possibilities. - Shown a little more of Max's life post-mom and before they go into the movie. Longer runntime as a result.

-It's fairly perfect as is, so idk what I'd do? -Maybe have the "It" have more clearly distinguished ways of operating? -Include the parents just a tad bit more? -Maybe change or alter the swimming pool finale to something else to please the people that didn't like it? -That's basically it Pumpkinhead 2: Blood Wings? |

IKR It Follows IS perfect. I just wanted to see if anyone else had thoughts on it. OH DEAR GOD. I could write an essay if I rewatched I'm sure but from memory: - Get the fuck rid of the "son of Pumpkinhead" bullshit. It can go. It was so stupid to begin with. Though I'd keep that he was mentally disabled. It's a good commentary on how people viewed people like that in the time that backstory takes place. - Given us a group of teenagers I didn't fucking hate. Everyone that they already wrote in can go. - Brought back the witch, Haggis, and made her the connecting point between the two films along with Pumpkinhead. She can have a connection to the boy from the past though. - Probably made some mention of the kids from the first. And what happened to them after the movie. - Had it be Haggis that gives into temptation for revenge and unleashes Pumpkinhead upon the kids of those who beat the poor boy to death. (Son, maybe?) But rather than the original villain, she doesn't give a fuck. She's more than willing to become a monster for revenge. - Made it scarier and a bit more like the first one. I felt like there was some of that gothic horror feel missing from the original in its sequel. - Gotten rid of the "Blood Wings" title. What stupid-ass title was that? - Smaller body count, more time to get to know the characters that we'd have to create from scratch. That's about all I can think of off-hand without having to rewatch. And to that, I say, "I'm good<3". Leprechaun Edited by Cman710, Jan 29 2016, 02:56 PM.
