i dont care about remakes one way or the other - some are good, some are bad .. just like non remake films.

i mean its not like other films are that origional - even if they arent direct remakes.

1/2 of teen comedies are just rehashes of Romeo and Juliet or The Taming of the Shrew.

most sci-fi or post apocolyptic film is just a version of Shane ..

like people have already said ... the masses crave something they can identify with. people looking for more origionality have always suffered because the movie machine is a business - it doesnt claim to make art.
I dread them because I know I won't be able to help myself.....I watch just about any horror movie out there, no matter what I hear. I am not a fan of the Friday the 13th films. Yet I have still seen them all. Why? I don't know. I need help. ;)

And no there isn't much in the way of originality these days, but I at least want to believe that someone is trying. And I figure there are some decent, fairly original horror scripts out there that are completely ignored because the film industry would rather throw money at yet another remake. I just want to see it balance out a little more.:)
