So, they do &#8216;Roadhouse,\u2019&#8221; he said, mentioning the 2023 reboot starring actor Jake Gyllenhall. &#8220;Well, we have the Patrick Swayze \u2018Roadhouse.\u2019&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">He continued, &#8220;They do \u2018Fatal Attraction.\u2019 Well, we have the Michael Douglas, Glenn Close classic. Those are all out there, and they redo them.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">He also mentioned a classic Harrison Ford legal drama that was remade into a streaming series he claimed isn&#8217;t as good as the original.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">&#8220;\u2019Presumed Innocent,\u2019 which was a great movie with Harrison Ford, a perfectly constructed legal thriller, and then they turn it into a multipart limited series and stretch it out and flesh it out and make changes, and none of those changes were better,&#8221; Roeper said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">The critic said that even if a remake or reboot is good, it\u2019s still an imitation of the original idea.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">&#8220;It\u2019s like a cover band, a really good cover band that you see at your local street fair or festival, and you&#8217;re like, \u2018Wow, they do a really good job of sounding like the Rolling Stones.\u2019 But guess what?

Film critic Richard Roeper asked Fox News Digital why there was a remake of the film, when audiences already had the Patrick Swayze version.<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">When asked if he believes that there has been a decline in the number of comedy movies being made in recent years, Roeper told Fox News Digital, &#8220;That\u2019s absolutely accurate.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">He noted that there aren\u2019t many comedies made today, at least compared to the number that were made in the &#8220;70s and the 80s and the 90s.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">&#8220;But you know, I look back at, you know, the 70s and the 80s, \u2018Animal House\u2019 and \u2018Caddyshack\u2019 and, you know, so many great films \u2014 so many great comedies \u2014 \u2018Revenge of the Nerds,\u2019 and even the John Hughes comedies \u2026 I do miss that when it felt like there was a good comedy coming out a couple of times a month.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Roeper claimed that the lack of <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/entertainment\/ben-stiller-doubts-tropic-thunder-would-made-today-says-edgier-comedy-harder-do\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:raunchy comedies;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">raunchy comedies<\/a> today is due to studios not wanting to risk offending audiences.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">&#8220;I think if you came with a script for, you know, something like \u2018Blazing Saddles\u2019 or \u2018National Lampoon\u2019s Animal House\u2019 or \u2018Stripes,\u2019 \u2014 yeah, I think you&#8217;d have a lot more difficulty getting all those jokes through now because there&#8217;d be this preemptive level, you know, within the rewriting process and the production and then the editing, where like, \u2018Oh, you know, we can&#8217;t say that,\u2019 or \u2018We might offend this\u2026\u2019&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Roeper said that modern audiences tend to condemn a film as offensive or insensitive without having even seen it. &#8220;They just hear that it&#8217;s about this subject, or they see a joke in a trailer,&#8221; he said, suggesting that this type of piling on makes studios even more reluctant to make comedy films.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">The critic mentioned that one film genre has risen up to replace the comedy film.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">&#8220;For whatever reason, it seems to me like the horror film has replaced the raunchy comedy \u2014 the R-rated horror film. There are so many Blumhouse movies, and a lot of them are really well done. But it seems like there&#8217;s a new horror movie every week in theaters, and a new comedy only four or five times a year.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/media\/bill-burr-blasts-critics-saudi-arabia-comedy-festival-visit-expletive-laden-interview\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Bill Burr Blasts Critics Of Saudi Arabia Comedy Festival Visit In Expletive-laden Interview;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \"><strong><u>Bill Burr Blasts Critics Of Saudi Arabia Comedy Festival Visit In Expletive-laden Interview<\/u><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<figure class=\"relative mb-4\">\n<div class=\"relative\"><img alt=\"Roeper and the late film critic Roger Ebert\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"960\" height=\"540\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" class=\"rounded-lg\" style=\"color:transparent\" src=\"https:\/\/s.yimg.com\/ny\/api\/res\/1.2\/AWIMtrNi_ZzX0OUZUBtmGQ--\/YXBwaWQ9aGlnaGxhbmRlcjt3PTk2MDtoPTU0MDtjZj13ZWJw\/https:\/\/media.zenfs.com\/en\/fox_news_text_979\/9f07dec8e20a9f2d4c36013c2e5c497c\"\/><button aria-label=\"View larger image\" class=\"group absolute bottom-3 right-3 size-10 md:size-[50px] lg:inset-0 lg:size-full lg:bg-transparent\" data-ylk=\"elm:expand;itc:1;sec:image-lightbox;slk:lightbox-open;\"><span class=\"absolute bottom-0 right-0 rounded-full bg-white p-3 opacity-100 shadow-elevation-3 transition-opacity duration-300 group-hover:block group-hover:opacity-100 md:p-[17px] lg:bottom-6 lg:right-6 lg:bg-white\/90 lg:p-5 lg:opacity-0 lg:shadow-none\"><svg viewbox=\"0 0 22 22\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"size-4 lg:size-6\" width=\"22\" height=\"22\"><path d=\"M12.372.92c0-.506.41-.916.915-.916L21 0l-.004 7.712a.917.917 0 0 1-1.832 0V3.183l-6.827 6.828-1.349-1.348 6.828-6.828h-4.529a.915.915 0 0 1-.915-.915M1.835 17.816l6.828-6.828 1.349 1.349-6.829 6.827h4.529a.915.915 0 0 1 0 1.831L0 21l.004-7.713a.916.916 0 0 1 1.831 0z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/button><dialog aria-label=\"Modal Dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\" class=\"fixed inset-0 z-4 size-full max-h-none max-w-none bg-white hidden\"\/><\/div><figcaption class=\"relative text-sm mt-1 pr-2.5\">\n<p>Roeper used to review films alongside legendary film critic Roger Ebert on the television show, &#8220;At The Movies with Ebert and Roeper.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Roeper also reflected on how film criticism has changed over the years. He lamented how major outlets don\u2019t seem to value full-time film critics any longer.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">He accepted a buyout earlier this year to <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.axios.com\/local\/chicago\/2025\/03\/19\/richard-roeper-leaving-sun-times-buyouts\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:leave the Chicago Sun-Times;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">leave the Chicago Sun-Times<\/a>, the same outlet that published reviews by Ebert until his death in 2013. Another Chicago outlet, the Chicago Tribune, got rid of its film critic position in August, an end to the role that was occupied by legendary film reviewer Gene Siskel for years.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">&#8220;You know, I love the fact that Chicago still has two newspapers, and they still compete to break stories. I do find it sad that the newspapers of Gene Siskel and Roger Ebert do not have film critics anymore &#8230; So that has definitely changed.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Still, he noted that the change is reflective of the fact that the news business is changing, but it doesn\u2019t mean that film criticism is dying. He said that the art form is thriving through different media.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">&#8220;Every time a film critic position like that at a traditional journalistic outlet is eliminated, people say, \u2018Oh, is this the is this the death of film criticism?\u2019 And in some ways, this is the golden age for film criticism and there&#8217;s a real democracy, because everybody can be a film critic,&#8221; he said, noting the relevance of review aggregator site Rotten Tomatoes as well as people\u2019s ability to review films and connect directly to audiences on social media.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">In addition to writing film reviews as a contributor to RogerEbert.com, Roeper hosts a podcast called &#8220;<a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/podcasts.apple.com\/us\/podcast\/the-richard-roeper-show\/id1535493271\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:The Richard Roeper Show;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">The Richard Roeper Show<\/a>,&#8221; where he reviews films and talks about industry news. He said he enjoys being able to have conversations on social media as well.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">&#8220;I do love the fact that, you know, you can have the conversation on social media in a way. So, if I go on Twitter [now X] and say, \u2018Here&#8217;s what I think about this movie,\u2019 boom, you get responses. And I know sometimes things can get rough on social media, but in my personal experience, 95 percent of the people responding to me, they just want to talk about movies or TV.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">&#8220;And I love the fact that there&#8217;s still such passion for movies and for TV series. You know, when a trailer for \u2018Superman\u2019 drops, you get all kinds of, you know, millions and millions of people talking about it. I think that&#8217;s still pretty cool.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Roeper added that he believes film criticism is more necessary than ever &#8220;because there&#8217;s so much material out there.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/media\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Click Here For The Latest Media And Culture News;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \"><strong><u>Click Here For The Latest Media And Culture News<\/u><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">He also added that it\u2019s important for getting the word out about great films that fly under the radar but that audiences should still see.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">&#8220;I think the key for film criticism and the necessity of it is to tell people about maybe a smaller film that they might not even have in their market, you know? A movie will open in just a couple of markets \u2014 New York, Chicago, Los Angeles \u2014 and somebody in Baltimore, somebody in the heartlands, somebody in Texas might say, \u2018Oh, I&#8217;ll I&#8217;m gonna look for that movie because I know now at least it&#8217;s gonna come to my streaming platform in a month.\u2019&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Roeper mentioned that one of the most brilliant facets of Ebert was that, despite his elite credentials, he always considered what the average, hardworking American would want to spend his money on at the theater when writing his film reviews.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">&#8220;One of the things I loved about Roger Ebert was that, you know, he was a Pulitzer Prize winner.
