On one facebook group I'm in the subject comes up from time to time about movies that couldn't be remade today. I can think of two. Can you think of any others?
Home Alone
Kevin and his mother would have talked while she was on the plane. He would have known right away what had happened. She would also have called the police and/or a neighbor to have them check in on Kevin. The Wet Bandits would have had to hit another house.
Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure
A phone booth would have stood out like a sore thumb in today's world. Rufus would have had to use something else to time travel. And teens today might not even know what a phone book is, let alone how to use one.
