Hollywood Really Messed Up With These Awful Remakes

What Men Want (2019)

Nancy Meyers' directed the 2000 hit, "What Women Want," starring Mel Gibson, and despite a somewhat problematic theme, it was a huge hit. Taraji P. Henson tried to recreate that same magic in "What Men Want," in which she too can read the minds of men, but it earned too much criticism regarding misogynistic overtones to be successful.

Annie (2014)

The hit Broadway show and movie was adapted from a comic strip called "Little Orphan Annie." The 2014 musical adaptation, however, was one of the least successful. Jamie Foxx plays a wealthy businessman who ends up with an orphan on his hands, but trying to modernize this timeless story just didn't work, no matter how charming the cast.
