Especially after that silly Rolling Stone list named it Robert Zemeckis worst film, appreciation is definitely merited. At this point, it feels like a classic. Just tell Jessica Chastain & Anne Hathaway to stay away from it. No one is checking their current movie. They are not the pairing to remake this  I do think a remake now could work though. |

Seriously, please no Jessica in this movie. You need someone good with comedic roles. She's too stiff. |

It's almost to predictable casting at this point, but I think Margot Robbie and Emma Stone in a remake would be close to perfect casting. You'd need to age them up at times like in the original, but make-up could handle that. |

Comedy is definitely something I'd like to see her do more of, but I think her performance in The Help showed that she does have comedic chops. |

Bruce was younger than both of them. |

Emma Stone as Helen makes sense even she's a bit too young, but Robbie doesn't really have the requisite campy bluster which Streep put on so hilariously. I think Chastain, even with relative inexperience in comedy, would be a more appropriate fit. I also like the idea of Rose Byrne as Helen. |

I kinda thought camp bluster was pretty much Robbie's main thing as an actor. Harley Quinn and Barbie ( and to a slightly lesser extent her Tonya Harding in I, Tonya) and whatever she was doing in Babylon seem to fit into that school of arch performance. In my opinion anyway |

One of my favorite comedies of the 90s. I don't care what the critics said. It's campy fun. Even down to the actors in smaller roles, I was dying. Isabella Rosselini: "Oh screw the natural law!" 😂 And Sydney Pollack is brilliant in his little cameo.

Why not Kate Hudson in her mother's role? (FYI, Goldie Hawn). She's 45 now.
