Can't think of a single one of these that I'd pay even a $1 to see.

Comcast's Top 10 remakes - coming soon to a theater near you.

http://www.comcast.net/slideshow/entertainment-remakes/10/

Why in the heck would anybody try to outdo the original Red Dawn? Footloose? Fame?  I've seen the originals of all 10 of these - I won't blow a single penny on these remakes at this point.

shmokes:
For the most part I think remaking great movies is a really bad idea.  But it sometimes turns out alright, especially with movies that benefit greatly from special effects.  So Tron is at least interesting in that respect.  Look at what whoeveritwas did with the 2004 remake of Dawn of the Dead!  That was really good. 

Most of those just make me raise my eyebrow, though.  There's just no reason for most of them to have a remake.  Have there been some significant advances in karate since the 80's?  Seriously, what is the point in a remake of Karate Kid?

I think Evil Dead would be awesome because of Bruce Campbell.
HellRasier might be good.

But Tron!!!!!!

Maybe it won't be as good as the original, but I would pay $1 to see the remake of Tron.

Hockeyboy:
I agree with most of the 'comments' beneath each photo/movie that is planned for a remake. You just can't recreate those moments or those plots or in some cases, the comedy by putting someone new in a role. There's no comedian today that could fill Rodney's shoes and Footloose with some crew from High School Musical...god, like we don't have enough of those crappy, sappy movies already?!? Red Dawn would have to be changed to Hot Sand and it would still lack the punch it had for those of us that grew up during that era - no kids today would 'get' the story anyway.

I'm with you guys - I think paying a DOLLAR would be too much!  :censored:

AtomSmasher:
I guess the upcoming remakes of Robocop and Bill & Teds Excellent Adventure aren't good enough to be on the list  :P
