American Graffiti with AI generated versions of all the original cast members, all played by Andy Sirkis in motion capture gear, with his voice used to deepfake the dialogue in each actor’s voice reconstructed by sampling the original film. Except the girl in the Thunderbird is Jar Jar Binks.
This would be the third movie, a sequel came out in 1979 called More American Graffiti. Nobody remembers it because it sucked and Lucas wasn’t really involved, but it’s notable for being Ron Howard’s last major film role before becoming a director.
Those are incredible. I’m partial to Last Knight to Make Out, myself, though I appreciate the sheer number of them that reference making out. Someone was being horny on main
Same script and same cast, with no explanation of why people this old would be at high school dances and cruising, or getting carded for booze. For the actors that have passed-away - Cindy Williams, Mac Phillips, Wolfman, Suzanne Sommers - Jar-Jar Binks takes their place.
give him $400 million to reimagine and rerelease american graffiti the same way he did the original star wars trilogy. an american coming of age tale with classic hot rods and then BAM a shitty VFX alien named blarsto shows up to challenge them to a race and teach them a life lesson along the way.
Modern version about a gang of kids cruising their 2015 era sedans around a completely decayed small town center. The only business still open is the burger place.
I hate that the only legally purchasable version of 'American Graffiti' has CGI teens doing slapstick bullshit in the background of every single scene 😡
