"A sequel is such a daunting thing because you don't want to lose the magic and the charm of the first one" (Sandra Bullock). We all have those classic movies that we enjoy until people in Hollywood create too many sequels. Honestly, the more sequels that are made ruins the origin storyline or plot from the first film. For example, the movie Ice Age was a remarkable movie. Ice Age was about this mammoth, sloth, and saber-tooth tiger protecting a human baby in an attempt to return the baby to its tribe. Three animals and a baby became their own herd, which made the plot of the film interesting. In the end, the baby gets returned to its tribe. Then, the three animals travel together to an unknown destination. All-and-all it was one of my favorite …show more content…
In my opinion, if they were going to make a sequel for Ice Age, they should have had it centered around where the main characters met the baby again, years later, and when it was older. However, that was not the case. Ice Age: The Meltdown was okay, but I knew it would never reach the same expectations as the first film. Shortly after that film had been released, three more sequels were released and a sixth sequel is currently being worked on. Hollywood has oversold Ice Age. They keep creating more sequels, so they can try to get more profit. I think it's sad how none of the other sequels have nothing to do with the storyline from the original and that these films have nothing, but random plots that make no sense. "I think a sequel is a waste of money and time. I think movies should illuminate new stories" (Francis Ford Coppola). Not a lot of people appreciate classic movies anymore. It's all about making money instead. Hollywood is not always as successful as they were the first time, be that as it may, they still try to make as much profit as they did with the first films. Another good example is Finding Nemo
Some of the situations may be familiar; we may be able to anticipate the ending. and the characters who should not really be different from everyday. people we meet). Having said this most people today like to see a new story, a new moral. This is a demand that every director tries to fulfilment.
In this paper I simply stated if characters are still characters over a period of time? My position was that filmmakers have deterred away from the original versions of Classic Films by comparing the differences in how they have changed two classic movies over a period of time. The moral of the story hasn’t changed over time: good will win in the end over evil, however the character of Snow White has changed from the hapless girl to the empowered female, flowing with the times and the audience(Callow, 2013).
The movie was mainly about which group was more superior over the other. I thought the imagery was pretty good. I thought this because I liked the scenery of the movie and the storms but none of the camera angles helped us viewers interpret different situations and what was going to happen. Overall I would give the movie a 3.5 out of
Millions of people around the world attend the movie theatre and among those millions of people they all share the same thing; the love for movies. There are movies of all genres that appeal to each person in this world, and yet many people find themselves sharing the same love for classic original movies; such movies in particular may include: Carrie, Godzilla, Footloose, and Psycho. Once someone has seen a movie and is en-captured by what the film means, how it was able to tug at their heart strings, the way a horror film was able to give them the chills, and the connection they made to the main character; people do not want anything about the film to change. For many remaking a classic film takes away the quality from the original film
I am impressed with how well the Keaton films hold up to the test of time, and I have a feeling that the movies of today when looked back upon will be looked back at with

A movie that came out in 2002 was Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone. This movie was based off the best-selling novel, which was written in 1997 by J.K. Rowling, called Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone. If you were to read this book and watch the movie you would find many differences, but the main difference between the two is that the book gives more information to the reader than the movie gives to the viewer. If someone was to watch the movie instead of reading the book, that person would not be able to have an accurate perception of the book because so many things in the book are changed in the movie or parts are left out of the movie completely. This is mainly because the book has more characters and chapters, which are able to keep the reader informed and interested. Still, the movie is shorter so that people who want a quick summary of the storyline can get it,
The makers of 'Shrek' have now made the second sequel to it 'Shrek2. Meet the parents'. This film follows how Shrek meets Princess Fiona's family and how it goes all wrong for him.
Hollywood has played a big part is our lives. Growing up we’ve seen numerous movies, some that scared us others that touch us, and those images stayed with us forever. So what happens when Hollywood takes a classic piece of literature such as Frankenstein and turns into a monster movie. It transforms the story so much that now some 50 years later, people think of Frankenstein as the monster instead of the monster’s creator. It became a classic monster movie and all the high values of the original were forever lost.
The beloved hero Iron Man has gotten everyone worked up over the satisfying sequel to the original Iron Man. Iron Man created a fan base audience making over $318 million in the box office. Iron Man being the hero to many above Superman, Batman, or even Captain America has created a worldwide fan base. The director, Jon Favreau did a fantastic job with the first Iron Man movie, and he is now back to direct the sequel.
Per usual, the summer months are just littered with sequels – with this year being no exception. From The Huntsman: Winter’s War and Alice Through the Looking Glass to Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2: Out of the Shadows and Neighbors 2: Sorority Rising, you might also make the case that we – as movie lovers – are unjustly subjected to sequels for movies that no one actually asked for. More to the point, the release of a sequel like My Big Fat Greek Wedding 2, which came 14 years after its predecessor, or Finding Dory, coming 13 years after Finding Nemo, forces one to wonder if the original creativity well is completely dried up. As such, films of this nature truly make you to wonder if there is any successful film that is above receiving
Movies - everyone knows that a recreation is never better than the original. But for some reason, directors are still redesigning old films, and they are viewed in theatres. I often ask myself, “How is this possible? What are people thinking?” However, after watching the trailer, I frequently find myself watching the movie along with everyone else, hoping that this time will be different.

Like the world has in the past, peoples’ likes and dislikes will change with the ever-changing technological world. What we enjoy as a society in 2005 is likely to be considered as bland as we consider the black and white silent films, in the years to come.
... states 20 mass changes that happened when the books of those worlds became movies. Now, think about how many more changes would happen if all the kids in those movies were banned and had to be replaced by adults. People probably won’t like their imaginative story world changed even more in a movie than they have been because they’ve already responded negatively to changes so far.
