We\u2019ve already shared a couple in a previous post, but here are 5 more movie reboots that need to happen.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h4><b>Good Burger<\/b><\/h4>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/rVTw5LK1zsQ\" width=\"420\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><b>The original: <\/b>90s heroes Kenan and Kel\u2019s jobs at the Good Burger restaurant (home of the Good Burger!) are threatened by a super-slick rival chain. It\u2019s every bit as good as you remember.<\/p>\n<p><b>The reboot: <\/b>90s heroes Kenan and Kel return, this time owning the Good Burger. Threatened by a bearded group of hipsters who open an arty burger kitchen experience, they try to adapt to the hipster burger trend. The sloppy Good Burger of the original is replaced by an artisan 1000% free-range beef patty with orange soda dressing and brioche buns. Hilarity ensues.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h4><b>Clueless<\/b><\/h4>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/RS0KyTZ3Ie4\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><b>The original: <\/b>Shallow socialite Cher realises that there\u2019s more to life than nice clothes and shoes. She eventually falls in love with someone, which makes half the audience go \u201d\u02dcaww\u2019 and the other half question if their relationship is a bit weird.<\/p>\n<p><b>The reboot: <\/b>It\u2019s the 21st century! Cher is a smartphone addict with her own YouTube channel. Imagine all the scandal the internet could provide! Oh, and maybe they could remove the slightly uncomfortable ending too\u201d\u00a6<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h4><b>Air Force One<\/b><\/h4>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/jPYnVOIfNiU\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><b>The original: <\/b>Harrison Ford is the President (finally!). He makes a speech announcing that he will never negotiate with terrorists, only for his plane to get hijacked by a group of Russian terrorists headed up by the king of 90s movie bad guys, Gary Oldman. D\u2019oh!<\/p>\n<p><b>The reboot: <\/b>With <i>Blade Runner<\/i>, <i>Star Wars<\/i>, <i>Indiana Jones<\/i> and <i>The Fugitive <\/i>all getting reboots, <i>Air Force One <\/i>is pretty much the only one left to adapt. Just do the same thing again but with a slightly older Ford!<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h4><b>Mortal Kombat<\/b><\/h4>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/JHIfHL5UgFs\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><b>The original: <\/b>An adaptation of the ridiculously violent fighting game. There isn\u2019t much violence and the costumes are very, very bad. Remarkably, it spawned a series of films that somehow get worse and worse.<\/p>\n<p><b>The reboot: <\/b>After the highly successful reboot of the video game series, it\u2019d be a good time to have another bite at the movie cherry. Get some sweet costumes for Scorpion and Sub-Zero, buy enough fake blood to fill 4 million swimming pools and voila!<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h4><b>Batman <\/b><\/h4>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/whgBnumr3QQ\" width=\"420\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><b>The original: <\/b>Take your pick. There\u2019s been so many versions of Batman that we\u2019ve lost count.<\/p>\n<p><b>The reboot:<\/b> There&#8217;s already one under way, but we\u2019re a bit tired of seeing Bats being such a grumpypants. Bring back the 60s campness and watch the money roll in &#8211; maybe. Adam West could play Alfred.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Which movies would you like to see rebooted?
