Could you imagine if we lived in a world where people actually created something original?

Could you imagine if we lived in a world where people actually showed up to theatres to watch something original Original films usually flop while franchises and remakes are hits, your the same people buying the same iphone every year

Like your comment ikr?

I watch just about every and that does in fact include originals…🤷‍♂️

It was called the 90s

@Supreme I have watched the Spike Lee movie but I did not watch this movie she’s got to have it and they did a TV series so I will start to watch it on my Netflix account

You can’t duplicate the chemistry woody and Wesley had .

​​@hzr yea...I really think though had 9/11 never happened, the world/times right now would still be as great as they were in the 1990s but more advanced

Annnnnd I don’t think that’s what they are going for Unc

And most importantly, you cannot duplicate the Zeitgeist of the 90s at that time. Stuff like Jordan and the bulls first three peet was happening at the time, Dream Team dominating at the Barcelona olympics, making the sport a world wide hype for years to come, Pince of Bel Air was all the rage. The 90s were truly a "fresh" time and the future looked bright and people were actually enjoying themselves instead of fighting over social non-issues like the bickering little kids we seem to be today.

@OldManSportsOG how is that racist

Would have rather seen Woody and Wesley back together again in "Old men can't jump"

Thankfully no one asked

That would be absolutely 🔥🔥🔥

Yep

Give this man a job paramount

No. Or simply see something New.

Oh look! Another great film that has absolutely no need for a remake

@Bradley's Car Reviews People will comment on trailers for bad remakes and not watch it. You need not worry yourself.

@nato then dont watch it. Simple

All this did for me is to want to rewatch the original. Thanks!

Ha me too... Going to watch it now

Exactly.🎯💯

same it brought back good memories of the original DVD

Same

Same!

"I knew this was a mistake" - That last line says everything you need know about this remake -

😂😂 facts

Who would have thought this was a good idea? The original was outstanding!

@Jay W I wish I could be like you.

@Michael Carson womens ghostbusters what the he’ll I never herd of that

@Samson Martinez They already made Woman's ghostbusters and they still keep doing dumb gender swapped movies. In every case they have been trash.

The zombies at Disney!! Who else? It would have been funny if they tried to gender swap the two leads. People already don't watch the WNBA.

The original is 🔥 .

The original is absolutely a classic of the 90s.

Bring back Woody and Wesley cmon man. That would be such a hit movie for Hulu and us. You can’t change classics, you gotta stick with them

Wesley black balled from Hollywood

old men can't jump

At this point in #Hollywood history I'm just waiting for the remake of #Casablanca with #Rick as a Muslim & the #Nazis as #Republicans..

Disney has no shame recycling classic movies.

@Joseph Grmovsek That happens in Churches, not in the media studios (and you can find any statistics that prove it)

@Halloween Spirit 🎃 i dont see what point you’re trying to make. Yes Disney owns multiple streaming services, yes they want movies from all the studios they own in those streamers. So what? What does that mean. Doesn’t make any of those films “disney films”

@Jeffrey Cunningham All these movies are already available now on Disney+ internationally and on Hulu (also HBO Max in the US because a window deal before the Disney merger that will end this year)

@Halloween Spirit 🎃 wrong. 20th century studios is like warner brothers. Which were owned by at&t but no one says they are at&t movies. Lucasfilm only makes star wars films, marvel only marvel. They’re not what 20th century is which is a large film studio that is still operating like they once did only just under a different umbrella. None of the films you named will be at Disney plus. Hulu sure but that where all fox titles go. They also get licensed out to other streamers. Unless theres a Disney logo in the credits before a film starts, its not a disney film. You know that touchstone studio ls was owned by Disney in the 90s? You know the studio that made Signs, Armageddon, pearl harbor, con air, gone in 60 seconds… the list is endless. Are THOSE disney films too?? Lol the answer is NO

Should have left it alone. The original holds up really well after all of these years. By the way Woody Harrelson can really ball in real life.

The guy who help trained them at the time said they were good enough for D-II basketball. Which is still pretty good.

This just looks like the privileged imitation version. Hard pass.

I think the 1990 Total Recall still looks good today, and they still did a remake of it in 2012. The remake is kind of fun but it was still unnecessary.

We need a remake of White Men Can’t Jump said no one ever.

When they could have just put the ORIGINAL back in theaters.

Are they showing older movies from that time back in theaters to make money again or for nostalgic purposes ? 🤔

To offensive for the masses these days...ppl would be crying

All the originals back in theathers and have the real ones just show up at the premiere s and press runs.

Right!!! lol

Yeah, one theatre by me did that with some classics

The studio is called 20th Century, because that's the last time their executives ever had an original idea.

The original can never be duplicated.

At least it’s on Hulu and not in theaters 😂

It would've FLOPPED hard

Hulu is becoming like Netflix, always creating lamest Gen-Z style, Anti-White bigot, dry comedy, and dull horror movies/TV show.

Just like House Party

@Artagle Not true. Hulu is popular

Lmao fr nobody watches Hulu

Plot twist...they are lovers, only way to bring back classics these days

😄😄😄😄

@Patrick Baker Lol. Yeah, I have. I was just playing into the trope of how Netflix obliterates the original plot in order to be "inclusive".

@Pale Horse I guess you haven't watched Disney, HBO, or Prime recently, it's happening everywhere. I honestly don't know about Hulu because who watches Hulu, but I'm 99.9% sure they're guilty too.

Nah. It's not being done by Netflix.

I'm sure of it !!

“Thanks for making this remake we’ve all been waiting for!” - no one

I wonder how many people truly woke up thinking "you know what we need a remake of?" and this is what came to mind. I'm betting very few. How ridiculous.

This makes me just want to see the original for the 4th time. In fact, that's what I'm going to do right now!😌

hard pass. woody & wesley will always be number 1

This is an encapsulation of EVERYTHING that is wrong with today.

i swear i remember a movie like this only it looked way better and original

these dudes have 1000x less riz and chemistry than Woody & Snipes and wtf are they doing INSIDE a gym. it's all about streetball

Global warming bro too hot on the street.

If you haven’t seen the og film, I highly recommend it

My life isn’t miserable so I’m actually interested in seeing this

I was a huge fan of the original when I was a kid. I’m going to give this a shot, but my expectations are low. I want to like it 😢

Thanks for reminding me to watch the original 🎉

Better off having a part 2 with new characters rather than a reboot

I like the original from 1992.

​@Dr. Ocho this new generation can thank the one that came before them then instead of taking things and running with it without giving cadence 💯

I like comments like this Lol

I like turtles.

@zx liked your own comment

@daniiel L

modern day Hollywood's finest on full display !

Actually, a real sequel would be interesting. Snipes character is now a successful old guy. He basically has a soft spot for Woody’s character and has been helping him out. Woody is always sad about Rosie. But then Rosie shows up and says he has a son who is going down the wrong path so Snipes and Woody try to play in a tournament to convince his street ball son to go to college. Or something like that. I dunno

Sounds like a similar outcome to biker boyz movie where the parent passes the torch down to their child..

@James Brian Elie Thanks, that will be a million dollars please😁

Not bad

They didn’t need a remake or a sequel really but if they did they should make a sequel with woody harrelson and wesley snipes in it

Wow this looks just as good as How High 2 😂.

Man the original had the saddest ending

The studios don't LISTEN. We didn't want this.

I can't wait to see the remake of this remake.

Underrated comment.

This movie is gonna gather up so many bricks they'll be able to build a shelter for the homeless.

@TheOC2334 Their mother's an astronaut!

such great teamwork in this thread lol

@TheOC2334 and their sister too

So their mother can have a place to live

The only good that can come from this is it might make people that have never watched the original go watch it.

It would've been nice if they tied this into the original movie. Have someone from the old cast be parents and their kids meet while playing basketball. The dads, Wesley Snipes and Woody Harrelson reminisce on back in the old days they hustled. So their kids go out and fail in their own way.

The most unnecessary remake in hollywood history. This movie is gonna bomb hard

It’s made For straight tv won’t bomb.. people with Hulu Will watch it like the countless other movies on website

Films like this actually separate us.

I don't recall any fans of the original asking for a remake.

even the non fans and people who have never seen it arent asking for it

Came here to say the original is yet another classic that doesn’t need a remake. Can’t stress it enough

Mad max and blade runner didn’t need remakes either but they turned out to be better than the originals so…

Can't wait

No way their topping the original 💯

This bugs me out for a few reasons, 1. The original is so iconic. I dont see how it could be matched. 2. It makes me feel OLD

Please don’t mess with this legendary movie!

@Kylo Ken exactly , my point to everybody who says this

The original still exists, you can watch it any time you want.

Too late

Always knew they'd come after a masterpiece smh 😑

Funny that people are just barely finding out now that this movie has a remake instead of when it was announced more than a year ago.

Well, in fairness, most people have tuned out from shitty remakes of good movies. Hollywood and their imitators have lost the audience. It's rare to see a new concept. So they just rehash good movies for cash. The "entertainment" industry fails to entertain.

really no way in hell these two can come close to woody Harrison and Wesley snipes portrayal in this movie no way

Any word on when the sequel is being released, and then the next sequel and then the redux?

People don't think social decay is a thing. smh

Hollywood is a joke now, how can you go from being the best movie makers in the world to the worst in such a short span?

Politics

Well, this is certainly going to be a piece of $hit

Calmatic gives me hope directing but it better be as good as the original.

Looks as good as 2023 House Party👌

you can't duplicate chemistry

Almost died of cringe watching this. Just go watch the 90s version.

Been on a 90s binge watching tear lately. This new sh.. just doesn't cut it for me 🤷

Some things need to be left alone

Should have made a sequel instead of a remake. Even if you say that these are the kids of Sydney and Billy...that would have been more appealing to me than trying to replicate the magic and chemistry of the original. With that being said, I'm going to go in with an open mind and hope for a solid entertaining flick.

Now this is what I’m talking about if you wanna come back with shows and Movies let’s come back with the same title different meanings but let’s finish where we started this is what I’m talking about this is a prime example if shows are going to come back come back and finish where you left off or if you were done start a new season start a new script start something new. P.S i’m so sick of remakes what are you going to remake Now this is how you start back off stop with the remakes it’s always a remake They constantly remake something over remake something over all you’re doing is starting the storyline all back over again it’s nothing new it’s nothing different not a new script stop the remakes

I’m gonna roast react to this movie when it drops *crackles

Oh my god.... they CANNOT seriously be trying to remake this masterpiece! It's not even that old!!

Is too much to ask these days for an ORIGINAL SCRIPT!!! 😭😭😭

First House Party now this. When is Hollywood going to learn?

Oddly enough, both share the same director (Calmatic).

Could have just made a basketball movie with a whole diff title in the same universe.

If this can get more people to check out the original film, I'm for it

I know your kind… “Look good and lose, rather than look bad and win!” 🥶

The warriors deserved a remake, this didn’t need one yet

They will ruin the warriors that is a classic film don’t give them any ideas

I'm not too sure about that one...The Warriors are in a class by themselves. There would probably be an uproar if someone tried to.

is it just me or did anyone else take a double take of "is that... dwayne wade??". talking about a doppelganger in sinqua walls!

come on disney, you remake this movie but you cant put fight club out on 4k?

Bro, snipes and woody were great. Can we get original ideas Disney cmon

@blackmajima  Disney owns the world rn right? I'm pretty sure they own half of Russia

@Jeffrey Cunningham show me something that says “discovery bought Warner brothers”

Tbh I feel like this could be a great basketball movie on its own, but only if it wasn't a remake of the 90s version because with a story, a concept and characters looking like they were just taken from the og movie and changed a little bit to fit today audience and be a bit different from the original, people will always find the 90s version better, it doesn't look like this movie has any purpose other than money, because they know people will watch it anyway

Yeah this one is already starting out with a side eye from fans of the original

I seen the original movie, starring Wesley Snipes, Woody Harrelson, Rosie Perez, Tyra Ferrell, Clyk Cozart, Kadeem Hardison, Ernest Harden, Jr., Nigel Miguel, Freeman Williams, Loius Pride, Marques Johnson, the late Alex Trebek, Alan Malamud, Duane Martin, and David Roberson, and now it's getting a remake.

🤖

And?

Oh cool. I wonder how woke this version of a movie that no one asked to be remade will be.

Leave the classics alone smh

WE WANT ORIGINALITY!!!!!

Right!!!! Unless the original still has chapters to close, they don't need a sequel..

Nope, Smile, Banshees of Inisherin, The Lost City, Ticket to Paradise, Violent Night, Everything Everywhere all at Once, Barbarians, The Northman, Tar, Glass Onion, Amsterdam, Pearl, The Menu, The Fabelmans. There were way more original films that came out last year than remakes or sequels. Just because you didn't see them doesn't mean they don't exist.

Glad to see I’m not the only one who is not interested in this remake and would rather see the original back in theaters.

Straight to VHS.

I have never heard him be called PT Anderson. He's right about Spike though

Yeah, I’m gonna go with the original…

HOLY SH&$...I knew this was going to be a fu$#ing abomination... But didn't expect it to be "straight to Hulu" bad..

This is legitimately an SNL skit made for theatres

It's a Hulu original.

Saw the trailer on Instagram and thought it was SNL

@Artagle Seriously, who the hell Is Pedro Pascal?

Speaking of SNL you should should watch what they recently did with Pedro Pascal 💀

Thats what i thought it was

Dear God! please 🙏🏽 don’t let them try to remake The Godfather 😢😱

Please don’t give them any ideas!

Why would they remake a movie that was perfect

Woody & Wesley are probably shaking their heads on this one!🤣

Doesnt look bad.

The only thing funny about this is it being labeled a "Hulu Orignial".

Why does 95 percent of everything have to be a remake these days?

Nope, Smile, Banshees of Inisherin, The Lost City, Ticket to Paradise, Violent Night, Everything Everywhere all at Once, Barbarians, The Northman, Tar, Glass Onion, Amsterdam, Pearl, The Menu, The Fabelmans. There were way more original films that came out last year than remakes or sequels. Just because you didn't see them doesn't mean they don't exist.

Some remakes are good actually

Whose idea was it to remake a legendary film (that is not in need of a remake) then cast someone who is not even an actor as the lead!?

😂 wow really this doesn’t need a remake and got actors which I never heard of

I'm 100% convinced that all these terrible, unwanted reboots are just money laundering rackets at this point

Yep, washing money like Tony Montana

Duh

I'm thinking the same thing no lie

@Dominic Arroyo that's so true lol

How did I know they were gonna use that song?

I've never been more unexcited for a film

😂😂😂😂

Did Spike remake this or did they just remake this for fun 😭

The remake is directed by Calmatic (House Party 2023)

Ron Shelton (Bull Durham) directed the original.

Spike did not

First reaction: No reason for this to exist. Second reaction: When I'm scrolling through Hulu, I'll probably watch end up watching this, against my better judgment. Well played, Hulu.

Background-noise type of movie

You too, Disney Plus Star.

Meanwhile while their blowing money on making this they could have been making a Harry Potter prequel or sequel tv series

Sometimes when you win, you actually lose. And sometimes when you lose, you actually win. And sometimes when you win or lose you actually tie. Winning and losing is one big organic globule from which one extracts what one needs. In the case of this remake, I extract a loss.
