Enormous disc-shaped spaceships surround major cities around the Earth. The world is terrified, yet we are greeted by these alien beings in a friendly, welcoming manner. They claim to want to help us, to offer us technology and science in exchange for resources. They say they come in peace.
Mike Donovan and a few others quickly learn the truth. These visitors do not come in peace, they have come to enslave the human race. Can Mike and a small band of resistance fighters save the planet?
This time on our podcast, we’re tackling one of the most beloved franchises of the 80s, one that was remade recently as a short-lived TV show. But with a feature film looming, we felt it was finally time to show Hollywood how to Remake V RIGHT!
Clips selected from 1983’s V.

When aliens come to Earth to ask for our help, a few suspicious humans discover their horrific true intentions and prepare to resist.
What IS Remake This Movie RIGHT?
Remake This Movie RIGHT! is a 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!
