80s movie classics I want more of 🇸🇪

This post is tagged as: ,

I've scolded Hollywood a lot here in the blog considering how unimaginative they have worked for the past ten years. It feels like an unreasonably large part of what is now being released in theaters is somehow connected to (remake, rebooter and sequel) the many classics of the 80s.

It would be necessary to create new brands we can look forward to, that can become cult and define several generations of people. But... Despite that, I now thought I would contradict myself and wish for a continuation of film series from the 80s that for some inexplicable reason had been lying around, but which would actually work well with a sequel about 30-40 years later. Of course, I know that there have been rumors about these reels - but nothing is confirmed and therefore they remain wishes.

• Gremlins 3 – Horror movies always get drifts of sequels, and Gremlins was a pop culture phenomenon. But despite that, a third film never came. But the actors are still alive and are not excessively old, the concept is ingenious and surely there are more people than me who wonder what Mogwai has been up to in recent decades?

• Who Framed Roger Rabbit – Disney is today, perhaps with some justification in some cases, criticized for being a little too cautious and anxious in its investments. It didn't usually be like that and their films were often just as good for adults as they were for children, and nowhere was this more evident than in the masterpiece Who Framed Roger Rabbit which was surprisingly raw, deep and offered more cleavage than anything else Disney has done combined. It's high time to let Jessica Rabbit and her feisty husband let loose again on an unforgettable trip to Toontown.

• Conan: The Barbarian – I know Schwarzenegger isn't exactly in his prime anymore. But he is still highly active and to have an aging Conan in a rock-hard fantasy world would have been worth its weight in gold. There are definitely stories to tell, that should be told and there is an endless amount of good material from the comics to base everything on.
