Beskrivning
Bringing together the latest developments in the study of serial formatting practices – remakes, sequels, series – Film Reboots is the first edited collection to specifically focus on the new millennial phenomenon of rebooting. Through a set of vibrant case studies, this collection investigates rebooting as a practice that seeks to remake an entire film series or franchise, with ambitions that are at once respectful and revisionary. Examining such notable examples as Batman, Ghostbusters, and Star Trek, among others, this collection contends with some of the most important features of contemporary film and media culture today.

Recensioner i media

Daniel Herbert and Constantine Verevis’ Film Reboots is dedicated to a fundamental question of the form, namely why do reboots exist and what do they do? An impressive array of scholars engage with the contemporary reboot as an industrial practice, narrative strategy, political text, and fan object, using both expected (Batman, Star Wars) and unexpected (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Twin Peaks) franchises as case studies. This collection is an important addition to and intervention in the growing body of scholarship on screen serialities.
