In stead of making remakes...

I know the reason for the ongoing onslaught of remakes is the mortal terror that Hollywood feels when it thinks of possibly not making tens of millions or hundreds of millions of dollars on a movie. It shivers in fear of new ideas for this reason. But.... if they think these movies are so good that they need to be remade (after all, they likely pick these things because they were movies that made them tons way back when they were new)....why not just re-release the originals?

If they are beloved enough, people would likely go see them again...no matter how many times they have seen them on VHS and DVD or television, just for a chance to see them on the big screen again...or maybe even for the first time. And some movies would probably cause enough nostalgia that people with kids would take them to see it because it was such an experience for them. Plus, people already know it's good. They've seen it before....or they've heard for years how awesome it is. The remake...no one really knows if their going to pull it off or not.
