In a similar vein, I would venture that Matrix 2 & 3 need to be remade ASAP. From the ground up, starting with giving The Wachowskis a little less money and a lot longer on the script . . .
Speaking as someone who saw Episode 4 in the theatre, back in '78, Martix 2 and 3 weren't as big of a betrayal as Episode 1 and 2 were but, still...
AMEN. And pass the bullets.

Since there seems to be little we can do to discourage them from their folly, I was curious to see if the Board Members had any suggestions on movies that should be remade but have not been, as of yet.
My first suggestion is one I mentioned elsewhere (I think it was the Who Will Direct... thread):
John Carpenter's Prince of Darkness-the special effects in this movie were soooo bad, and the acting wasn't much better...and yet I still find the movie extremely creepy.
...and then of course:
The Keep-need I elaborate?
Any other remakes that would be a good idea?

I am only 7 years old, but I think Michael Mann should remake PSYCHO and THE ADVENTURES OF PLUTO NASH.

All actors & actress's acting was cheesy. Especially the script was terrible. They messed up everything.
Of course, "THE KEEP",too. I believe Guillermo Del Toro can remake "THE KEEP" perfectly.
So true, Kenji...this time with =professionals=! Paul was good, though...

LOL. I agree. He isn't the best actor, but they should =not= remake Rainman. Maybe it was so good because Tom Cruise didn't have to act to come of as a self-absorbed moron. Maybe that's a little harsh, but it's true.
