There's only one movie I want to remake for all the right reasons (and have half the script written already). If it ain't broke though, don't fix it.

hmm, by The Thing do you all mean the 1951 original - or the Carpenter remake??

my pick would the The Silence of the Lambs - i can see hollywood wanting to remake it at some point - with kirsten dunst and vince vaughn as clarice and hannibal - and maybe ashton kutcher could play buffalo bill. . .

oooh, good one! It's only a matter of time, but you just can't do that one the way it was meant to be again. Ever.

Great point.

First: Neither... I hear Newb's pleas (threats) and I aquiesce.

Second... I would march on Hollywood with a thousand raging horror fanatics strong to stomp the shit outta someone. Mark Silence of the Lambs up there with my sacred Exorcist.

I dont mind remakes at all..ever. You just need to seperate the two movies, if it means that much to you it should be even easier to remember they are two different movies. I never understood the whole art-fag mentality surrounding remakes. Its really not as bad or serious as you might think.

poltergeist and nightmare 1 should not be touched both of them were wonderful and even though some great new visuals could be done with both of them, any higher tech would ruin them.

If any director touches these movies, I'll kick their asses
They are already in the process of remaking the OMEN

Get used to it.......change is inevitable. Upgrading doesnt just happen in technology. It happens in EVERYTHING. We......or more, YOU, cant do a damn thing about it. It changes with generations, and sorry to break the news sooooo early, it's gonna continue. MY GOD MOVE ON!!!! Bitch, if you must, but yet another news flash...............the producers, backers and actors, dont care. So see it if ya want. and dont see it if ya want, but it's gonna happen for this, the next, and the next generation. So they can continue to know where it all began.......because when they see the remake, they'll keep the originals alive. They'l wanna know where the remakes came from. See, you all see it as butchering classics........I see it as a learning experience for the deprived. The younger generation that sees it and finds out that "WHOA!!!!! This is a remake? I have to see the previous one, and the one before that", and so on and so on. So take heed.....Hollyweird, or any other moviemaking business could care less what you think. It will continue. And by all means, opinions are cool, dont get me wrong. But complaining gets someone else to want to prove you wrong. So I say, PLEASE continue complaining, I wanna see more remakes.:D

Good points...but they still better not touch suspiria or fright night;) :p
