Movies As You (Don't) Remember Them...

As usual, this is a fad that I caught up to long after it's been popular but what the hey...enterprising young people take a familiar movie trailer, re-edit it, add different music, visual effects and completely change the mood and tome of the picture it originally was. And though that sounds more complicated than it really is, don't let that scare you away.

In spite of my lateness to this party, I do know that there are millions of other sites/blogs/message boards that link to the more familiar "remixes", as they're called; i.e. - The Shining remixed as a family comedy, West Side Story redone as a zombie flick, etc. So I went and found some lesser-known "remixes" for your viewing enjoyment. And mine too, since I'll just be coming here to view them, instead of all over the place.

First, what if The Sound of Music downplayed the music in favor of action?



...or Groundhog Day went for scares rather than laughs?



We all know Robert DeNiro has a lighter side, but still....



This one is a favorite of mine.



And finally, try to guess which direction THIS one goes in. Betcha can't; I sure couldn't.



Till later, happy viewing! Dope out.
