    Archived from the IMDb Discussion Forums — Death Becomes Her

    This movie NEEDS to be rebooted. I mean, I love the original, like nothing I've seen, its funny and witty and a cult classic. But its very underrated.
    Anyway, I think a reboot would be perfect ONLY and ONLY if Madelaine and Helen were Kate Hudson and Anne Hathaway. The chemistry between those two was so good in Bridewars that I want to see more of them together.
    Kate would be a perfect Madelaine and Anne would make an excellent Helen. I think Bruce Willis's part could be played by a dorky Bradley Cooper.
    Hey, Kate is Goldie's daughter.. would be nice LOL

      I am okay with thinking about it but you have NO fantasy.
      Your cast ..is the worst Amercian sterotype.

        No. Absolutely not. Most of the reboots out there suck.

          Proper, remastered from the original film, release on Blu-Ray first. 🙂
          It's an underrated film but what can a reboot bring to the table?
          Of all the remakes and reboots, only "Battlestar Galactica" nails it. Partly because the original was so inconsistently handled. All the others just go through the motions, change the premise, and think that niftier special effects will somehow make it better.

            No remake please. A re release with deleted scenes would be nice though.

                the whole point of original casting is "against-cast". bruce who usually is the action hero of the 90s played the wimp. meryl, a serious actress played a bad actress and using cgi. goldie hawn the 'cutesy' blonde plays the frump and then the redhead sexpot.
                i love it. if they reboot, i hope they maintain the right amount of camp, the dark humour and REALLY good casting.

                  Would be interesting to see it with updated effects. The CGI looks terrible lol!!

                    No, although a great movie, I'll say leave it at that. The special effects would be great if a similar film was made these day, but like you say, it's a classic & I feel it shouldn't be tampered with.

                      I could see a remake, but I'm not sure its at all necessary. The effects still look good. I'm not sure what a new cast could bring to the table.

                                no reboot. just remaster it, and add in the blu-ray menu the option to watch the alternate ending. we never see it but apparently its an ending that breaks down the whole movie.

                                  Please, for the love of God, no. The subject matter is relevant enough for a classics rerelease at the multiplex, but no remake or reboot. Some oil wells are too rich to tap twice in a row.

                                      Everyone is entitled to an opinion. But yours is beep
                                      How about they make a new movie in a similar vain? Then when it sucks it doesn't ruin an already great movie. Reboots in general are unnecessary. Do you have trouble watching movies that take place in a different time? Do you need the beep color configuration and hack cinematography of today to enjoy a film?
                                      How do you people exist?
