The remake of 'Planet of the Apes' comes to mind

Texas Chainsaw Massacre 
... nothing will ever beat the original! However, I didn't see the remake and don't plan on seeing it... I hate it when untalented nOOb's are placed in masterpieces.

Whats the point of making remakes anyway. If a film is already good there´s no point in making a new version and if a movie already sucks a remake probably wont be any better.
Are there a lack of scripts to male movies of or what?

I think the reason why almost all remakes turn out crap is that they mostly lack the impact of the original and sometimes bad casting chioces.
I can´t come to think of any movie remake that´s better than the original. But there got to be some.

I know that the movie "Heat" is a remake of a movie made by the same director (or maybe it was producer, something like that) and is almost exactly the same, same talk, only that Heat has better actors (DeNiro and Pacino in the same movie!). I've only heard about this, haven't seen the original, but movie critics says that it is complete waste. Heat is a very good action though.
Back to topic: Yeah Planet of the Apes is a terrible, meaningless remake.
I've heard that Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck once thought of doing a remake of Casablanca with them starring in it, but it was put on ice as no one wanted to either sponsor them or even try to make it! haha! hope they never do that!

I thought 'Red Dragon' was far superior to 'Manhunter'. Though I'm not sure if it would be considered a remake, or just a different interpretation of the book.Tom75 said:

Psycho should have never been redone. I kept falling asleep and having to skip back a few chapters to eventually get through it.

i completely forgot about the hills have eyes, i doubt it should be remade though but texas chainsaw massacre and dawn of the dead are both supposed to be really good
besides, texas chainsaw massacre has been remade and sequeled so many times already it doesnt matter if they do it again

God fucking zilla. What those Hollywood cunts did to my favorite overgrown buddy pisses me off. The 1998 abomination that had the simple name of "Godzilla" should've been called "Big piece of shit lameass CG dinosaur, with a crappy story". 1954's "Godzilla: King of the Monsters" >>>> 1998's shitfest "Godzilla"
"Destroy All Monsters" is the best Godzilla movie ever, 1978 was better because of that movie.
Don't know if this counts, but "The Ring", decent movie until the shitty lame ending, goddamn that movie was stupid.
