But I think calling Ghostbusters a female reboot is unfair, its another Ghostbusters film in its own right or calling it a Ghostbusters reboot is fine. <br /><br />They're calling them 'sheboots' and I don't think these are the answer. An Ocean's Eleven-esque heist film with female cast would be awesome but a straight up copy. I love Ocean's Eleven but there is seriously only ONE female in the cast and she doesn't do much.Katie Hoganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01176992567322682222noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3797386216465468233.post-75171003045198344982016-07-20T19:42:52.293-07:002016-07-20T19:42:52.293-07:00Interesting suggestions!

I think it'd be totally awesome if there were more female versions of movies like Reservoir Dogs, etc. but if they were their own material and not remakes. Unfortunately I think because the originals are all-ready well known, studios think that will draw audiences instead of brand new stories.<br /><br />I don't remember too much about the Frank Sinatra original of Ocean's 11 but, as a heads up, Steven Soderbergh's version didn't do much for female roles. Julia Roberts, Catherine Zeta Jones, and Ellen Barkin aren't intricate to the specific heists. If they were removed from the cast, the story could go on without them. They are still fun movies though!Katyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00287429151542133314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3797386216465468233.post-80390794288674098742016-07-18T16:15:51.738-07:002016-07-18T16:15:51.738-07:00Good point.

However, that's something that probably doesn't need to be an absolute in order to pull off.Dellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05634519605152190304noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3797386216465468233.post-2257070865367792862016-07-16T14:39:16.775-07:002016-07-16T14:39:16.775-07:00Well, in the context of Reservoir Dogs, the thieve...Well, in the context of Reservoir Dogs, the thieves were supposed to have a uniform look, which is why they all wear the same suits and have their hair combed the same way. That uniform look would probably be easier with short hair than long.John Hitchcockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13373653979400552490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3797386216465468233.post-19986289654985115982016-07-16T14:23:48.846-07:002016-07-16T14:23:48.846-07:00Some interesting suggestions.

I have a question on Reservoir Dogs. Why would we need women to cut their hair?Dellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05634519605152190304noreply@blogger.com
