Film Remakes
Kong Kong - 1933
Kong Kong - 2005
The difference between the two movies is the practical effects used. In the original 30s version you had Stop-Motion Animation, while in the 2000s remake. The new effects are motion capture, which is a significant difference to the original.
The Thing - 1955
The Thing - 1982
The difference between the two classics is that both movies are set in difference continents. The original set in the North Pole, the remake from John Carpenter is set in the South Pole. Another significant change between the two movies is that, the 50s classic uses are a costume for the monster. While in the 80s version uses animatronics and a lot of gore.
Godzilla - 1954
Godzilla - 2014
The difference between the two Big-G movies is the setting. The original Godzilla (Gojira in Japan) was set in Japan. While the recently released 2014 version is set in America. Another difference is the storyline. Instead of Godzilla destroying Japan like the original. In the modern remake, Godzilla is saving America from the evil Mutos. Another significant change is that Godzilla in the remake is a CGI monster, while the original is a man in a costume.
The reason we do remakes is because it allows a new audience to have the experience on watching a film that was released many years ago. Another reason is because it revives a franchise and sees how the film would look in the modern setting, compared to its settings in the 50s or the 80s for example.
