logans run

Logan’s Run tells the story of a futuristic society confined to a domed city where all of your wildest fantasies can come true, as long as you are willing to sacrifice yourself on your 30th birthday. Those that refuse are known as Runners, and it up to the Sandmen, an internal police force, to bring them to justice. As Logan seeks out a hidden Sanctuary, he debates his own existence and sets off on a journey that will affect them all. 40 years have passed since the seminal classic hit movie screens, and the time has come to craft a more modern version.

Question: What kind of modern conventions or futuristic ideals do we incorporate into our film?

Question: Can we update the film without hindering the message?

The answers are here in our latest podcast as Jason Cabassi from The Walking Dead ‘Cast and Troy Heinritz from The Blacklist Exposed join Aaron and update a classic. It’s time to Remake Logan’s Run RIGHT!

What IS Remake This Movie RIGHT?

Remake This Movie RIGHT! is a bi-monthly podcast where we take a classic film that is actively being remade by Hollywood studio execs, and craft our own version for a modern retelling. Does the story need updating? Should characters or motives be tweaked? Do we need more muppets? We take all factors into account, concoct our singular film, and then offer a Final Pitch to you in movie trailer form. By the end of each episode, we will Remake This Movie RIGHT!

Our show is broken down into three distinct parts:

The Original: We discuss the original film’s impact on us and history, some quick trivia bits, what worked the best from the film and therefore must remain in our upcoming remake, as well as what didn’t work or what needs to be changed for today’s audiences. Most importantly, should this film even be remade?

The Remake: We put together our movie! What story do we want to tell, how close to the original will it be, who will star, and ultimately who should direct our eventual cinematic masterpiece? Our hosts work together to put together one cohesive movie, but there is one caveat – Each host has one ‘CUT!’ throughout the episode to employ, which could completely derail the entire film.

The Final Pitch: This is where we summarize our remake by utilizing the voice talents of voiceover artist Wayne Henderson and present our finished remake to you in movie trailer parody form!
