I'll be the first shitlord to say: an all female cast for Ocean's 11 will not be an Ocean's 11 remake.

Give it time. A vast new continent of laziness has been revealed to Hollywood producers. They will explore it fully.

Instead of sequels and prequels, the solution to running out of ideas now is reboots and remakes...with the new wrinkle of ALL FEMALE CAST!

What the fuck this movie isn't even old. Up next a remake of Avengers 2!

Hey guys, I'm going to remake/rewrite the Lord of the Rings trilogy. Think I'll be a bestseller and legendary author?!

I don't get this indulgence towards a lack of creativity in Hollywood.

It's not about being lazy or lacking creativity, it's about creating a product with known brands that allows the marketing department to make a more precise revenue forecast aka minimizing risk. I'll let you decide if it's better or worse...

On the up side, bad and/or generic ideas can make for great movies, and brilliant pitches can turn to shit when written and filmed poorly. One of the funniest comedies of the last few years is, after all, 21 Jump Street!

At least thankfully when Ghostbusters bombs this'll get shitcanned before it sees the light of day.

You would have a point Szlia if it was a new product within the existing franchise. This sounds like a rehash.

pretty much this.

as soon as Hollywood realizes there is no market for these needless remakes using all female casts, the plug will get pulled on all these crap fests.
