Thanks to our wonderful VIP Hyperdudeman, we're talking all about recasting roles this week. It's a topic we've experienced a lot as Sequelisers as we've recast many characters over the years and it has a fascinating history in Hollywood and beyond.

Here in the real world our leaders let us down all the time. In politics, sports, work-life. But film offers us a cleaner narrative and a host of leaders to aspire to, or outright avoid. So we're once again leading the way to talk about cinema's relationship with and creation of fictional leaders.

The inter-season... shit; we're still only in the inter-season...

It's about time we buy a caravan, grab a shooter and tackle another sequel we'd like to see. This time, it's 2000's Snatch! So, each Sequeliser will take it in turn to pitch a potential sequel to the cockney classic. To say these pitches are quite different is an understatement!

It's the season finale of Requelisers so we're going BIG. We're fixing 1976's remake of the 1933 classic King Kong. Yes, it's the one with Jeff Bridges & Jessica Lange. Yes, it's uncomfortably horny. Oh, and it's Jack's first finale and...well...he's done a thing.

We come to you now with a crucial message for all humankind, one that will echo down through the ages with three iconic words: THIS REMAKE SUCKS This week, we're taking a look at the 1951 classic The Day The Earth Stood Still and the nanomachine-infested remake from 2008.

Oompa loompa doompety doo, we've got a rubbish remake for you. Oompa loompa doompety dee, it's Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. What do you get when Tim Burton remakes? Johnny Depp plus Michael Jackson deep fake. What is he at when he's talking like that? Why's he such an annoying twat? We can't stand this crap remake.

When we talk about epic cinema, it doesn't get more epic than Ben-Hur. So who in their right mind would try and top it? Well in 2016 that's exactly what MGM decided to do. Suffice it to say, that didn't work. So we thought we'd take a stab at it. And.. you honestly have no idea where we've taken the Ben-Hur tale.

Fasten your seatbelt and rev up your engine, we're taking a trip back to the 60s to take a look at The Love Bug, and then to the 90s for it's strange straight-to-TV remake/reboot/sequel. If Bruce Campbell isn't enough to save your film, what will the Requelisers do to get this clunker across the finish line?

Get your Illusion-O glasses ready and venture into a glass case of spectral emotions as we fix 2001's Thir13en Ghosts (yes, that is how they spelt it because it was the 2000s). When the best part of the film is the DVD extras, you know it needs Requelising!

Do you like Clash Of The Titans? Like, really like it? Yeah, we're not so sure anyone does. Whether it's the 1981 original or the 2010 remake, they're both odd relics that take a pretty solid premise and fumble it in multiple ways. But don't worry, we're here to give it a fresh coat of paint with an upgraded remake. So fetch your clockwork owl, tame a flying horse and prepare to...RELEASE THE KRAKEN!

Hop aboard the downtown express as we take a trip back to 1974 to an underseen classic, and then on to 2009 for a mediocre remake marred by John Travolta and his insistence on saying "bumhole".

Wolverines! That's right, when Russia, or China.. or, I mean, North Korea plan on taking over the world, it's up to a handful of plucky school kids with the gumption to stand up and fight back. Well, similarly, when studios propose terrible remakes of (admittedly questionable) movies, it's up to us to do the same!
