I don't like to see great films remade.
What's the point anyway?
They are classics, and should be left alone.
The new versions of Poseidon, Italian Job, etc - awful.
It's not very original to remake a film. That said, it may be a good idea to remake films that were and are absolute flops if they can be improved on.
On tv I tried to watch the remake of Reggie Perrin, but most of it was just unwatchable.
When it comes to film and tv, everything has been done, so they now remake things.
If they want to remake something, why not remake missing episodes of old comedies and dramas? (If you don't mind someone else playing Captain Mainwaring and Hancock.)
