Child’s Play creator Dan Mancini Just got a big slap in the face by MGM.
Dan Mancini is currently planning an eighth movie as well as a TV series, but MGM has decided to reboot the franchise without Mancini’s involvement.
Now, Child’s Play 2 star Christine Elise raged against the idea of a remake without Dan Mancini. Read on to see the valid point Elise makes…
CelebNMovies247.com has the latest on Child’s Play getting a reboot by MGM but without Child’s Play creator Dan Mancini involvement.
Hollywood can be so unkind to creative people it actually makes us sick.
Anyways, When Elise was asked about the remake, she had this to say:
I think it’s an unbelievably huge d*ck move. I think it’s a d*uche move absolutely. I don’t know why they would f*ck with a healthy franchise. To make a competing franchise with an existing, and like you said a healthy, robust franchise is super d*uchey. And nobody from the original franchise is involved; they’re not gonna have Brad Dourif, they’re not gonna have Don, and they’re not gonna have any of us.
Of course, MGM doesn’t seem to care and they’re continuing on with their remake and stripping away some of the parts that made Chucky a true horror badass.
Christine Elise goes on to say:
I think the doll is going to be an artificial intelligence doll that goes haywire, so it’s not going to have the whole element of the serial killer possessing it, et cetera, so it’s not going to be, really, a Chucky film. So, I don’t know why they’re just taking the title and stealing it and mucking up the waters.
This is why so many remakes basically SUCK! The studio always thinks they can make it better, but instead, they ruin the classic. Take for instance A Nightmare on Elm Street 2010. That was a waste of money, time, story, creativity (because there was NONE) and so on…
Did we learn nothing from The Fantastic Four Reboot blunder in 2015 by Josh Trank who didn’t consult creator Stan Lee? The movie was garbage!
We can expect Child’s Play reboot to follow suit.
