List remakes worth doing
 

Since there's so much talk going on about remakes and the general feeling is that they suck, I was thinking: are there any movies that you feel would actually be worth remaking? Which ones?

Personally I wouldn't mind watching Salem's Lot be remade... I saw both versions (don't know if there are more) and they were pitifull! And I think the book is great and had potential to become a good movie (or mini series, since the story is kinda big).


PS: Don't know if anyone had posted something like this before, the Search option isn't working.

I don't think there should be anymore remakes.The stories been told, leave it alone.

remake the ones with a good idea, but bad execution

like

Death Race 2000!

Was that the one with Stallone?

Yes.. but sometimes the stories have been told in a pathetic way.. maybe in those cases they're worth being told again.

yeah and David Carradine plays a driver named Frankenstein

fuckin' sweet, could still be made much better

They really shouldn't even bother with remakes.

I always wanted them to do a remake of V, the alien invasion series from the 80's.

i'll post the same answer for every time someone makes the same thread :

War of the Worlds.

someone make the god damn thing the way it was meant to be - please.

I didn't have any information on it before watching the movie so I can't tell what was wrong (apart from that general this-is-too-hollywoodish feel). What do you think should be changed?
