Godzilla 1998 makes a top 5 list of the worst remakes ever


Highdefdigest.com has composed a pretty good list of what they consider to be the 5 worst remakes of all time.

(This is all in line with this week's newest remakes of "The Thing" and "Footloose").

Some of the films listed make sense (sorry but the recent "The Day the Earth Stood Still" was boring and bad) but some shouldn't have been on there.

Like the newest "Clash of the Titans". It's an action movie on steroids, what else did people expect. I always like any battle from the Gods and of course the Kraken, which was amazing.

In any case the 1998 Godzilla movie makes the list, which is called the worst of the bunch apparently.

I agree with the sentimentality presented.

They're not calling it the worst because it was the worst movie. They're calling it the worst due to the potential it had.

As I've chronicled in my various YouTube videos on this topic, this movie could have set up one of the best sci-fi franchises ever.

We could be on the 4th movie of this franchise by now, with Godzilla fighting MechaGodzilla, or Destroyah, or who know what other worldly threat.

Now all we have left is a bunch of could-of's and maybe's, which becomes all the more frustrating.

In any case here's a direct link to the list for further reference:
