Back in my day, you either had to get up at 4 am for the girls gone wild infomercials, watch the MTV spring break, pause movies like waterworld, or record the scrambled playboy channel and wonder if that green thing was a woman's body.
#New waterworld movie movie
Waterworld was the first movie that I remember during puberty where I saw a female butt. I then started writing fanfiction about waterworld. When i was in middle school i was gifted my first DVD player and copy of waterworld on DVD. But here's to hoping.įun fact: I would play with my legos in the bathtub and play waterworld as a child. I highly doubt they would ever remake waterworld, or give it a sequel. Think about the mummy remake thattom cruise was in, that was going to be the start of universal's dark universe? All of that is shelved or canceled due to the mummy's poor performance. Now as for a remake, though I would personally love it, it was one of the most expensive blockbuster bombs of it's time, and if there is anything universal studios actively avoids its blockbuster bombs.
Normally there pretty craptacular but this one added more depth to the world. More so, I'd reccomend finding a used copy of the novelization of the movie. So much so that when I heard about the elusive 'ullyses cut's had to find it. And then I went back and saw it again, and it's like, 'Oh yeah, this movie ages great with time.'" For more on the idea, head to Collider.I've always loved this movie as a kid. "For many, many years I didn't really want to see it because I thought the movie didn't work, it wasn't what the script was, it was not as good as the script, it had its production problems. "The only movie that I went back recently, that we made and rewatched and I was surprised at how well it held up, is Waterworld," Davis tells Collider. The aim is to pick up the story 20 years later instead of rebooting the movie. The Mariner, whose body has mutated in order to adapt to its water-logged surroundings, reluctantly agrees to help a woman ( Jeanne Triplehorn) and a young girl ( Tina Majorino) try to find dry land while they fight off starvation and outrun a group of outlaw "smokers" led by Dennis Hopper's Deacon.įox, Davis and Trachtenberg are in the early stages of putting the show together, figuring out the story and finding writers to craft it. The original film, which was beset by production issues and suffered a critical mauling on its cinematic release, stars Kevin Costner as The Mariner, a drifter who sails the Earth, which has flooded after the polar ice caps completely melted, forcing the sea level to rise.
#New waterworld movie series
Proving that any and every movie or show will eventually morph into something else, the producers are in the early stages of development on a series that appears close to landing a streaming home, potentially at Universal's Peacock service, at least in the US. And now, according to Collider, producers John Davis and John Fox are looking to continue the story on TV, with 10 Cloverfield Lane's Dan Trachtenberg attached to direct the potential show.
When it isn't sinking into the depths of Worst-Of lists, 1995's Waterworld has bobbed into cult status, turning a profit thanks to its home entertainment release and other outlets.
