Question

Filmmaking: Then and Now

Assignment Overview

While most people prefer the original version, there are two versions of the movie Fame. The original was released in 1980; the remake was released in 2009. Films can be remade for many different reasons, but clearly, the director of the remake wants the new version to be successful. This is not always the case.

For this project, choose a film that has been remade, then watch both the original film and the remake. Feel free to choose Fame as the two films, or use a search engine to find lists of original films and their remakes. You can find versions of the films you select at the library or online. After viewing both films, write a 3 to 4-page analysis of the two films.

Assignment Directions
Your analysis should compare the films for overall quality, story, production values, direction, casting, and editing. Provide examples to support your thoughts. Think about how film production changed by comparing the original and the remake. Do both films use real, onsite locations? Are the sets equally realistic? Is there a difference in the pace of editing or use of close-up shots? How are sound effects and music used in each film? Focus less on the story and more on the production elements of each film.
Using this analysis, draw your own conclusion about which film is better and why.

Answer 1

The Grinch: Old vs New (2000 vs 2018 version)

Step-by-step explanation:

- The 2018 Grinch movie goes right into the story. Meanwhile, the 2000 movie gives the viewer a backstory to why the Grinch is the way he is.

-Main difference in the new Grinch movie versus the old is how the overall appearance of the Grinch has changed. This adds to the overall childish feel of the movie and does not accurately portray the gross, unloving, and selfish character that the Grinch is supposed to look, feel, and act like.

-The tones of the narrators: In the older movie, Anthony Hopkins talks in a deep and unfriendly voice throughout the movie. In the new movie, Pharrell Williams talks in a more mellow and happy voice.

-Younger generations may appreciate the new

rendition, adults and teens who grew up with the live action do not favor it.

- The 2000 version is more classical than 2018

-Production Budget for 2000 version is $123,000,000, for 2018 is $75,000,000. But the 2018 earn more in Worldwide Box Office with $514,357,175, the 2000 earned $345,445,403.

-Both films are lauded as great family-friendly films to watch during the holiday season
