10 Failed Movies That Actually Deserve A Reboot

1. Catwoman

Catwoman

Halle Berry's Catwoman movie had a lot of promise...at least until we got our first sight of the costume...and then the trailer...and then the movie. Berry won a Razzie for her work on the film, and rightly, the film is regarded as one of the worst comic book movies ever made.

Not only is the character's name changed from Selina Kyle to Patience Phillips, but the tone is too campy, and the plot revolves around an evil cosmetics CEO (Sharon Stone) who has developed an anti-aging cream. Yeah, because that sounds...totally awesome...

Anne Hathaway totally knocked the role of Catwoman out of the park in The Dark Knight Rises, and as long as it was kept separate from Nolan's Batman mythology, I would be totally down for a Catwoman reboot about Selina Kyle's pre-Batman days.

There's a huge built-in audience for something like this, and as long as it follows a similar style and tone to the Nolan Batman films, there's the potential for a real winner here.

Which failed movies do you want to see rebooted the most? Let us know in the comments below.
