In general, I say no (which is what I voted). However in some cases remakes are essential in order to keep an awesome story alive through the ages.
Not all remakes are bad - or a poor homage to the first...sometimes they can be as good, or even better.
However, usually a remake is done just to cash in on the fact that theres a lot of ignorant movie-go-ers out there. This is when the movies are baaad and created without any love and never capture the atmosphere of the first.
