*NSYNC.. sorry. I wish they would and go on tour so I can see them.
ReplyDeleteWoodstock for the music.
ReplyDeleteThe Smiths!
ReplyDeleteMorresey is coming to our little Podunk town. I about died when I heard.
DeleteDitto on the smiths. But it will never happen. Too much bad blood between drama queen morrissey and guitar god, johnny marr. Smh
DeleteI would love to make a really scary version of "A Christmas Carol." With well-done ghosts and a really authentic Victorian flavor.
ReplyDeleteReunions are always so awkward, because everyone is past their prime and past their relevancy.
ReplyDeleteIf I could go back in time I'd see The Velvet Underground, the Sex Pistols, Miles Davis, and Nina Simone.
I saw the Smiths twice in 1985 and 1986. They were SO good.
ReplyDeleteThere was this band called Failure in the 90's....I'd like to see them.
ReplyDeleteMost bands I would like to see reunite have either already reunited or involves someone resurrecting from the grave.
Movies...I think they've already remade them all.
Brenda L. - you are my new favorite person. Besides Richard Ashcroft, Ken Andrews is my favorite male singer. Failure was amazing. Ken toured 6-7 years ago and did some Failure and ON songs live in Chicago. I don't get nervous meeting people but I just about died talking to him like a 14 yr old fangirl!
DeleteMusical group? I don't think they qualify, but the members of the Rat Pack.
ReplyDeleteAs for movie? I'm gonna catch such grief for this one, but "Bewitched"...but this time done right.
Thankfully Spice Girls and the Monkees got back together, so I'd say Nsync. Yeah I went there.
ReplyDeleteMovie- sequel to my all time favorite movie ever: Beetlejuice. BUT only if Michael, Tim and Winona are in it. Maybe Alec. Gina can come too. If I can't get that, I'd like the dreadful sequel to my other favorite movie to be erased from history. Teen Wolf TOO? Get outta here!
It will never happen but Pink Floyd.
ReplyDeleteAmber - oh boy would I love to have seen Miles live. With Coltraine too.

ReplyDeleteFleetwpod Mac and the Eagles.
ReplyDeleteGuess it's too late for the Beatles :(
ReplyDeleteTalking Heads
ReplyDeleteFuck yes! Can't believe I forgot them! Screw my other two bands! What I would give to see talking heads live!
DeleteI second your fuck yes on the talking heads! LOVE them. That's so who I'd wanna see.
DeleteI want an updated version of Clue. not a campy, straight to DVD version. Something with cutting comedy like in Bridesmaids, elaborate scheming like Dorm Daze, but suspenseful enough to keep me interested. And under NO circumstances should anyone with the last names Kardashian, Hilton, or Lohan be allowed in movie!
ReplyDeleteI second the beetlejuice for movie sequel.
ReplyDeletePink Floyd !
ReplyDeleteI would so very much love Freddie Mercury to rejoin the living and his band.
ReplyDeleteI hate remakes, so I've got nothing on that front.
For the movie:
ReplyDeleteThe Goonies (my G.K. favorite).I was going to say Lion in Winter, but really, nobody can touch that.
YES! Beetlejuice! Absolutely must have Michael Keaton in it though he would still KILL IT! Also, he is THE ONLY great Batman. JS.
ReplyDeleteOh, and I'm still hoping they do an Incredibles 2 someday!
ReplyDeleteI want Zombie Freddie Mercury, or a time machine so I can see Queen live. I also want Steven Page to re-join Barenaked Ladies, but whatever.
ReplyDeleteAs dumb as it sounds, I really wish for another Sex and the City movie - one that doesn't blow goats. The ladies deserved a better send off than SATC pt 2.
The Labyrinth!! With David Bowie and Jennifer Connelly again!!! Never going to happen...but how rad would that be?!
ReplyDeleteI would give up my first born child to see this.
DeleteI would so very much love Freddie Mercury to rejoin the living and his band.
ReplyDeleteThis and I'll add Michael Hutchence to the list, circa 1989. Yummy.
The Commitments
ReplyDeleteThe Commitments
It's a The
Time machine back to 1987 and the original Guns n Roses. With Steven Adler on drums.
ReplyDeleteWould also like to see the Beatles around their Rubber Soul-Revolver period.
THE RACONTEURS. They broke up way too soon.
ReplyDeleteNot a band, but there's a rumor that Kate Bush is going to perform at the Olympics closing ceremony, and I'm wetting my pants just thinking about it.
ReplyDelete@jolene..jack whites other other band?!?! They broke up?! Argh that's sucks. I got to see them a few years ago. They were brilliant.
ReplyDeleteLabyrinth and Neverending Story both should be remade with new technology.
ReplyDeleteI agree, a remake of Clue and a Beetlejuice sequel would rock. Back to the Future is too awesome to tamper with, I just wish I could watch the trilogy again for the first time. Also agree with Pink Floyd for the band.
ReplyDeleteGenesis for the band and West Side Story for the remake. (tho i feel as if I will regret that wish and it will be like one of those step up dance movies UGH) Love the CLUE idea as well. Tho I did love that original movie with all of the different endings
ReplyDelete@VargasGirl - I swear I saw that neverending story is getting a remake... SWEAR it... I will try to find it again for you and post the link here
ReplyDelete@vargasgirl - here it is -
ReplyDeletehttp://www.comingsoon.net/news/movienews.php?id=53283/
If people can come back from the dead THE TEMPTATIONS!!!
ReplyDeleteThe Police, but I know I would never be able to afford that concert.
ReplyDeleteOnly because I watched it yesterday, I'd like to see a remake of Brainstorm.
ReplyDelete@Stacey, thanks, but 3 years ago, it's gotta be dead by now...ATREYU!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteHe is actually in an upcoming movie called Sushi Girl. I think it's his first movie in almost 10yrs.
DeletePantera!!! \m/
ReplyDeletePink Floyd...I watched The Wall a few weeks ago and can't get Hey You outta my head
ReplyDelete@Krab, I second the Smiths!!! (I did manage to see Morrissey a few times solo though. :)
ReplyDeleteJourney
ReplyDeleteNEW YORK DOLLS!!!
ReplyDeleteRemake - Tommy, the Rock Opera. Though who would be good enough to reprise Elton John and Tina Turner at the height of their powers? Who could be Tommy?
ReplyDeleteI saw Floyd live in the early 70's. Awesome,overwhelming, unforgetable experience.
@Jolene, The Raconteurs put on a great show! Wish they had done more than 2 albums. :(
ReplyDeletePink floyd! and if I could go back in time, Led Zeppelin.
had done? Sorry, put out.
ReplyDeleteCouple of days ago I would have said the Monkees. Now they are reuniting. What's left of them anyway.
ReplyDeleteCouldn't think of a film, until I read other comments. Have to agree with "Beetlejuice".
ReplyDeleteI adore Michael Keaton, he stole my heart in "Clean and Sober" and "The Dream Team".
Beatles, Queen. Cant happen but id love to see it- well, hear it. Hmmm, remake- gone with the wind mb, with hot sexy leads.
ReplyDeletePeter Ceterra back with Chicago and Steve Perry back with Journey.
ReplyDeleteIf we can bring back the dead, then The Beatles.
Pink Floyd.
ReplyDeleteTemple of the Dog. They did one album, but what a doozy.
ReplyDeleteCosign remake of the Neverending Story. Seriously. Check out the original book by Michael Ende (and if possible, get it in hardcover, which color-codes the parallel narratives) - they could do some of the visuals now that they could do now that they couldn't do in the 80s. Especially in the book's second half, which isn't in the movie that most people are familiar with. Besides, I'm thinking Rooney Mara w/b a good Xayide.
NSYNC, En Vogue, TLC (I really miss them - RIP Left Eye)
ReplyDeleteI would love to see a sequel to The Prestige, with Hugh Jackman and Christian Bale.
Not the biggest of bands, but I miss Del Amitri. One of their songs, Be My Downfall, brings back a time and a place so vividly I can almost smell the Paco Rabanne... and, Justin Curry is knickers-droppingly gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteGhostbusters 3! It can be like Grumpy Old Men but with ghosts!
ReplyDeleteAgree with others that I'm not much on reunions. The musicians are old, and usually have issues with each other that they're putting aside because they need the money. But I'd love to see the Grateful Dead or the Clash again.
ReplyDeleteMusic Group: Operation Ivy I also don't want them to reunite because they'd lose their earnest punk cred. Very few things in this world have earnest punk cred anymore.
ReplyDeleteRage Against the Machine and Guns 'N Roses for the band(s).
ReplyDeleteAs far as sequels or remakes - most of the good ones have already been done.
@BlisterPlease-YES!!! totally the Temps with David Ruffin on lead and my other fav Junior Walker and the All Stars oh and the Spencer Davis group!!
ReplyDeleteI always thought Nick Cage and Ashley Judd would have been great as Mr. & Mrs. Smith. I'd like to see them in a sequel where the assassins have kids now.
ReplyDeleteIt will never happen, but for the reunion I say Steve Perry rejoining Journey.
ReplyDeleteFor the movie, I want a sequel to "John Carpenter's The Thing" so I can find out if Mac, Childs, or both had been Thingized.
Nsync
ReplyDeleteBackstreet Boys
Fleetwood Mac
Fall Out Boy
and I'd love a sequel to A Walk To Remember
Film: I demand a remake of "Less Than Zero". I adored Ellis' novel and then saw the film, which was so SHIT! The film's narrative wasn't even comparatively close to the book's. Apparently Brett Easton Ellis was also very unhappy about the fiasco.
ReplyDeleteBand: Oasis
RHCP -WITH Frusciante
ReplyDeleteI would love to see ABBA reunite and would pay top dollar for that , can't think of a movie but like a lot here would def love to see a beetle juice sequal but only with Michael Keaton :)
ReplyDeleteI second the Beetlejuice mention. I need some more Beetlejuice & Addams Family in my life. IMDB says a stop motion Addams Family is in the works, I hope it's like Nightmare Before Xmas stop motion. That would be totally rad.
ReplyDeleteOT: I'll be doing Sketchfest this weekend with a bunch of other artsy fartsy Faery people. It's open to everyone, even the mythical stick figure connoisseurs , we'd love to have you. We're kinda like one big family (with ego problems lol)....yeah like I said, one big family, lol!
http://www.ellenmilliongraphics.com/sketchfest/index.php
Wow, my first OT. Kinda feels like a rite of passage, lol. :)

ReplyDeleteCheesy as hell but iwould love to see Wham reunite.
ReplyDeleteOh, and they need to add Linsner's "Dawn" stuff into the amalgation of comic book stuff that Hollywoodland's been fascinated with lately.
ReplyDeleteI would like to see a Breakfast Club sequel where the school has a 100th anniversary gathering and we catch up with all of them and where they are now. It couldn't be a reunion as they were in different years.
ReplyDeleteYes, feraltart! One of my favorite movies ever!
Deletea remake of The Sound of Music
ReplyDeletecast -baroness shrader -angie jo
max - billy bob
maria - juliette lewis
capt. vt - braddy pitt
iheartjacksparrow, Mac and Childs were not "thingified". They were men. They died as men. That is what made it work. They sacrificed themselves.
ReplyDeleteAs for music...Led Zeppelin. That would work.
Movie remake-Enough. No more.
Wish Layne could come back and we could have an Alice in Chains reunion. :(
ReplyDeleteThe Beatles, and A Hard Days' Night. Revolutionary band, and revolutionary movie.
ReplyDeleteMusic reunion? ABBA! But they were offered an absolute shitload of money to re-group about ten years back and every single one of them turned the offer down, so this probably won't be happening.
ReplyDeleteRemake or sequel? I want a "Batman" movie with my favorite character, Robin, in it. This probably won't be happening either because Hollywood doesn't want to deal with the bigots who'll have fits and refuse to see the movie because they think Bats and Rob are gay. Sigh.
White Stripes - Shawshank sequel: life on the island.
ReplyDeleteI totally concur with ABBA and Queen! That would be beyond epic. And if I could have someone back from the dead it would be Warren Zevon. Damn I love his songs and his last appearance on Letterman choked me up.
ReplyDeleteAs for remakes- Less Than Zero is an excellent call. I would also like to see Snow Flower and the Secret Fan redone to actually match the book. Wtf happened with that adaptation?

I'd love to see a Reality Bites sequel. Imagine those characters 20 years later? Ben Stiller is doing stupid movies these days. I'm sure his career could use the boost.
ReplyDeleteOMG @Yawnathon - a kindred spirit! Can't believe you got to meet Ken Andrews, that's pretty awesome. I've seen Autolux but Greg isn't the most approachable guy ever.
ReplyDeleteFantastic Planet is a just classic album. They really do need to reunite.
OT:Monty Python comic Eric Idle is supposed to be conducting a mass
ReplyDeletesingalong of "Always Look on the Bright Side of Life" at the closing Olympic ceremonies.Hope that is a true rumor.I know it by heart.
I second Fall Out Boy, they're a guilty pleasure of mine.
ReplyDeleteAs far as movies, Pineapple Express! I'd have loved if Drive would have ended without loose ends, but a sequel would ruin it.
I'm gonna cheat and say two tv shows; Family Matters and Full House!
Ferris Bueller's Day Off
ReplyDeleteThe Breakfast Club
Planes, Trains and Automobiles
I would have loved to be in the audience during The Band's Last Waltz - one of my favorite versions of "The Weight" - I love the Staple Singers - and Woodstock - no brown acid -
I would like an ABBA reunion. Also Depeche Mode bc I never saw them the first go round. And why not throw in The Cure for good measure. What a strange mix!
ReplyDelete@Agent**It - Do you know the words to I'm a Lumberjack?...Monty played Winnipeg in their early days Eric Idle said he was terrified they would flop then the curtains went up and to his great delight..the front row was dressed as a caterpillar..
ReplyDeleteconcrete blonde. party monster
ReplyDeleteThis one is easy. I used to go to pubs from age 17 to watch INXS, even got to kiss Michael a few times on stage. If I could go back and relive one of those gigs, no more than 500 people crammed into a tiny pub. Sit on the edge of the stage waiting for them to come on, no barriers. Michael would always kiss a girl when he sang The Loved One.
ReplyDeleteA guy friend and I had gone to see them 3 times in one week, driving all over suburban Sydney. It was a Saturday at Dapto Leagues club. We got there super early so went to eat first at the bistro. They were eating too, so we sat near them they recognized us from the front row all week and asked if we wanted to hang out in their dressing rooms with them. We spent about three hours, not saying much, we didnt need to. They were all above board no sleazy stuff just being nice to hardcore fans. We even had a joint with them.
It was just before they released Shabooh Shoobah and the first time they sang Don't Change for a live audience. They were discussing the set list and decided to add it as last song. I will always cherish the memories.
The Supremes.
ReplyDeleteSorry folks, that wasn't a reunion story, I got caught up in nostalgia and got carried away.
ReplyDelete@redronnie 'I sleep all night and work all day' That song is hilarious.
ReplyDelete@astrogirl, I remember shedding a tear when Michael Hutchence died. I can understand why you would want to remember that !
I would love to see an awesome remake of Total Recall...uh...wait...never mind.
ReplyDeleteJourney with Steve Perry and the rumored sequel to The Way We Were with Babs and Robert Redford. Unfortunately, Sydney Pollock is dead, so I don't know who would direct it. Just not Babs to get Robert Redford in it.
ReplyDeleteI'd love to see a Zoolander 2. ABBA or Journey for a band reunion.
ReplyDeleteSublime with Bradley Nowell. They were the soundtrack of my early 20's. RIP Bradley
ReplyDeleteJourney with Steve Perry and Legends of the Fall - would love a sequel to that!
ReplyDeletewell sugar magnolia! If we can say bands w/people who've passed away, then obvs I say Bob Marley and the Wailers, and The Wu-Tang Clan.
ReplyDeleteOkay, we're talking original bands here, with original members, right?
ReplyDeleteThe Beatles
The Monkees
The Doors
The Allman Brothers
Jimi Hendrix
The Talking Heads
The Smiths
B52's
The Pretenders
The Clash
Nina Simone
I've seen The Talking Heads,
The Smiths, The B52's, The Pretenders and The Clash live. The B52's were so much fun, even though they were booed off the stage at a Florida stadium by drunken assholes who thought that if they threw shoes and bottles at them it would make The Stones appear faster. Wrong!
I don't need any remakes or sequels.
ReplyDelete@JasonBlueEyes - I'd see that. ;-) I just hope Troy has a job by now.
I second Nutty Flavor's GNR reunion idea and add The White Stripes.
