What harm can reboots etc., do if they're so different from the
original?

Since they are so different, why bother stupidly re-using the same name
and often trying to pretend it has some connection to the original??
It's not as if it fools anyone with more than a single digit IQ anyway.
:-\

The Humphrey Bogart film "The Maltese Falcon" was the second remake of
that title..

The Judy Garland "Wizard of Oz" was a remake.

One TV series in India, one prequel TV series in USA, and one movie.

'The Three Stooges' set for India TV Revival
--------------------------------------------
U.S.-based C3 Entertainment's iconic Vaudeville comedy franchise
"The Three Stooges" is set for an Indian TV adaptation. With a
working title of "Three Stooges Bole Toh Hungama Ho Gaya," the
Hindi-language series is being developed by Mumbai-based Galani
Entertainments.

The series is being developed for television. But a broadcaster
has yet to be identified.

Galani Entertainments is linked to Vijay Galani Moviez/Film
Folks which has credits including Salman Khan vehicles "Veer"
and "Suryavanshi" and "Ajnabee," starring Akshay Kumar and
Kareena Kapoor. New talent comers will be cast in the roles of
Larry, Moe and Curly.

The original comedy trio featured in some 190 film shorts from
1934-58, with U.S. national television syndication beginning in
1958. "The most appealing factor for recreating 'The Three
Stooges' in India is the universal appeal of the boys' comedy,"
said producer Pratik Vijay Galani of Galani Entertainments.

"This is the perfect time to extend 'The Three Stooges'
franchise in India to the 1.3 billion population," said Earl
Benjamin, President of C3. Television is the largest component
of India's media and entertainment industry, growing at 8.5% a
year and valued at $9 billion.

Separately, C3 is currently developing the family feature, "The
Three Little Stooges." Also in the works is a follow up to the
2012 "The Three Stooges Movie" with Sean Hayes, Chris
Diamontopulous and Will Sasso reprising their roles as Larry,
Moe and Curly.

A true fan of something should never watch any reboot / remake /
reimaginings ... they're *ALL* completely different to the original and
simply ill-fitting crap.

What harm can reboots etc., do if they're so different from the
original?

Watch BAYWATCH the movie. I dare you.

Did it make you forget the original?

I will eventually!

Try to imagine an Alexandrea Dadarrio movie so wretched that I turned it
off halfway through.

Not surprised. Nothing about the ads for that movie make me think it
would be good. Well maybe with subtitle and sound turned off. That
might make it watchable as I've seen some pictures of Alexandrea
Dadarrio in her swimsuits and she does look quite lovely.

Remember the ads for CHiPs? This makes those seem palatable.

Hungama means "bedlam" in Hindi, which fits. The rest can't be
translated; I guess they misspelled the phonetics.

Does India have a slapstick comedy tradition?
