Movie Remakes

I'm biting from CrisomTide's question. I think she meant TV shows.
I'm curious as to what movie remakes would you like to see?

Imitation of life....with the mother from SoulFood playing mom.

School Daze

Porky & Bess

A black version of 7 Brides for 7 Brothers

WIZ.......Patti LaBelle must be the good witch, scarecrow Usher, Tin Man Snoop Doggy Dog

What great ideas!

That will be the bomb. As for the Wiz, Patti Labelle will be just right for the "good witch" part.

I LOVE Imitation of Life...still cry at the end.
How about "The Women of Brewster Place"? Can't think of any actresses but it would be nice to see it updated.

I would love to see a remake of Sparkle...I absolutely love that movie! Of course, if they remade it, it would probably end up on BET

Good question about Dorothy. They would probably put Brandy in , but I feel she would butcher the job. As lomng as it's not Halle, couldn't stand her in the Dorothy Dandrige story. Witney is too old. Hmmm, let me think.

I love Sparkle. I'm sure Destiny Child would fit many parts of that movie.

Imitation of life is my favorite movie...I've been trying to buy it...So far I haven't had any luck finding it...

I would love to see an updated version of Claudine. One of my favorites. I agree Destiny's Child would be good for Sparkle. However, If I'm not mistaken, I thought I read somewhere that a remake to Sparkle was in the plans. I may be wrong. Imitation of life is another favorite of mine, .

The Wiz definitely.
Mahogany, that's right. I love Diana Ross she is the best actress.

School Daze, a more up to date version cause looking at Dean Big Brother Almighty Julian's part in his hair doesn't work for me anymore.

Let's Do it Again and Uptown Saturday Night, you can't front on Bill and Sydney.

Love and Basketball, with me and Morris this time. It might not be better then the first but who cares
