Something Wicked This Way Comes has a sequence where the two boys look older and they tried to hide it with dark lighting. Disney ordered reshoots and more special effects but the two child actors both had growth spurts as young boys that age do and looked totally different during one scene where they're terrorized in a bedroom by big spiders.
I think you guys missed the point of your own list, most of these are not "painfully obvious" at all, aside from Fant4stic and Jaws, there's nothing visually odd that people would be able to tell there were reshoots here (unlike movies like Justice League, which wasn't even mentioned whatsoever)
I kinda agree!since the late 90s absolutly!isnt that why Burton didnt come back for a third Batman movie?they used to do well with proper directors, then hired music video talent since the 2000s!unless you count the Harry Potter franchise!
Studio meddling almost never works. But somehow, arrogant executives never realize that. They're always trying to "salvage" movies they think are going to flop, and they just end up making things worse. Often, there wasn't even a problem in the first place. They just lack faith in audiences.
So every bad film ever is only because of the studio and never the director. The studio finance the film. Maybe that gives them a right to have an opinion on the film.
@@dhenderson1810As they’re making abundantly clear lately, the executives only care about short term profits, and have no discernible talent or artistic vision. They should only get involved when there’s real problems or when asked.
I remember the director's cut of Payback. I had a glitch with Vudu, I used the their Scan a DVD (or whatever it is called) and added it to my library. Only it added the director's cut, not the theatrical cut I owned. On my Ultraviolet account (an account that used to connect all your digital library) I could watch the theatrical cut but on Vudu it was the director's cut. Eventually Vudu fixed it but for a while I had both. I had fun showing the two variants to my friends.
@@dhenderson1810 - Even he admits is "terrible" and says he did it for the money which was the entire point of my comment. He's a double Oscar winner and one of the greatest actors of his generation and the movie is a giant dog turd. He deserved better than "Jews: the Revenge" and "The Swarm" which is even worse. He is way too good for such movies.
Not a movie, but in the TV series Chucky, Season 2, Fiona Dourif was almost unrecognisable from one episode to the next. So much so that I had to look on IMDB to see if it was actually her. It looked as though she had shot the scene while in hair and make up from another job.
The sad thing about Superman II was the replacement director admitted he'd never read the comic book. Thus, all the powers Superman didn't have like rebuilding the Great Wall with vsion power and the stupid fight with Zod. Especially the line that Superman says to Zod about being in school together( Zod was an adult when Superman was born).
I am Legend ... they missed the entire point of the story, which the first ending would have followed because the protagonist realizes that the mutated humans are the next step and he is the monster to them. And it is a good, thoughtful way to end the movie ... Sad that they blew it.
Attack of the Clones. Ewan McGregor wildly switches between glorious real beard & mustache and horribly trimmed & glued fake facial hair that impedes his very ability to move his mouth naturally while talking.
They have Halloween 6 reversed. The movie was infamously cut to pieces by the mpaa and lost almost all of the gore in it. Even scenes that made more sense of the cult storyline were cut , I assume for length, or lack of interest. Not good scenes or scenes that would have made the movie better , mind you....just help it make a little more sense.
You can’t have a list of painfully obvious reshoots without mentioning the hideous wig Andrew McCarthy’s Blane wore for the reshot ending to Pretty in Pink. Test audiences didn’t like Andie ending up with Duckie (and neither did Molly Ringwald). So, they called back the cast months later to reshoot the ending and have Andie end up with Blane. But Andrew McCarthy had shaved his head for a play and apparently the worst wig known to Hollywood was applied to his dome to film the new ending. It’s an atrocious wig and obvious due to scenes preceding showing a very normal head of hair on Mr. McCarthy. Honorable mentions on reshoots for Back to the Future, Top Gun, and Cocktail all having hairstyle changes (and Cocktail has the distinction of having said hairstyle changes occur mid-scene). Back to the Future has obvious scenes where they tried to use footage with Eric Stoltz (punching Biff in the diner, Marty is suddenly taller). And there’s the “This has gotta be a dream” scene where Marty’s hair changes lengths in the scene. Top Gun, both Tom Cruise and Kelly McGillis had changed their hairstyles for their next roles and they were brought back to set to enhance the love story of Maverick and Charlie (elevator scene with her wearing a hat and him with a wet head was to try to mask the hairstyle changes and the love scene was filmed in such a way to not show that Kelly McGillis’ hair color was darker).
The better version of Body Snatchers would be the 1956 Original with Kevin McCarthy and Dana Wynter. Even the 1978 remake with Donald Sutherland, Brooke Adams, Jeff Goldblum, Veronica Cartwright and Leonard Nimoy was pretty good, if mostly for the excellent casting. After the '78 version, It should have never been re-remade. Thank you.
The theatrical version of "Payback" was much better than the "Straight Up" version. The latter was no fun to watch as Porter was just a cold-blooded jerk and the ending was very unsatisfying.
I Am Legend is not a remake of a vampire movie. It is a remake of Charlton Heston's The Omega Man. The main difference is the zombies kill the doctor as he and the few other humans escape with his serum, not that he kills himself to buy time for the survivors.
No. I Am Legend WAS a remake of the 1964 film starring Vincent Price, based a novel by Richard Matheson by the same name. The story in both concerned a vampire virus. The Omega Man was a remake of the Price movie.
@@MichaelSmith-gt3ip I did see The Omega Man, when it was released in 1971, Including the opening credits where it says based on the novel I Am Legend by Richard Matheson. You need to see the first version "The Last Man on Earth" (1964). Much closer to Matheson's novel.
Same. Plus, the editing is much better. Seriously, Donner should’ve hired a better editor for his cut of Superman II. Even I could make a better recut of Superman II while still maintaining Donner’s vision.
The I Am Legend "alternative" ending, was a lot better, the "zombies" being smart and just wanting the kidnapped one back, is a lot nicer, and makes more sence, since they already showed being very intelligent when they made a trap for the protagonist using the manequin that they knew it was an imaginary friend of him. As for World War Z, I really liked it, even if it was not the best movie ever, I enjoied watching it (but well, I also enjoied Eragon and The Sorcerer’s Apprentice, 2 films that everyone says are as bad as they can get xDD) .
With respect, if we had never known of the original I Am Legend ending, the original wouldn't have felt put of place...It doesn't belong on this list 😂
Dumb idea to reshoot Jaws the Revenge just to save Jake? Jake was pretty much an annoying character only leaving Mike scream like Shinji Ikari when he died.
The only that I took away from I Am Not Legend was that Will Smith lived fine by himself with a dog for YEARS then died a dsy after inviting a woman into his life. I forget the rest of the movie.
You uploaded this less than a year ago. Stop re uploading the same list with slight tweaks. Make something original. Make some more Chatty Faces or something.
Worst Daniel Craig movie is Dream House. That movie stinks on ice. If you really want to know how bad it really is, just watch the beginning of the movie where you see the fake CGI snow falling down. It isn't even good CGI. The movie was clearly made so Daniel Craig could work with his wife Rachel Weisz but the audience that saw it was treated to a borefest of a movie. Speaking of borefest, Insidious: The Red Door sucks as bad as Dream House, literally nothing happens for the first 40 minutes of the movie except that we get to see a brooding teenager start college and draw scary dark images and fight with his dad...that is literally the first 40 minutes of Insidious: The Red Door, the rest of the movie is the same Insidious crap plot.
The Donner cut of Superman II is a boring suckfest. The Richard Lester cut is far superior. That line about most people preferring the Donner cut is a complete fabrication unsupported by any evidence.
And exactly what is wrong with a movie having a slow build? What do you call it, a psychological build? The "professionals " are ruining cinematic stories! Not every movie has to be the same! I prefer a thriller over a horror flick. I term a thriller as having edge of your seat suspense. A horror movie is a gore fest. That's right you geniuses, keep making brilliant decisions that cause you to lose fan base. I am done! I keep youtubing older movies
