I'm waiting for a remake of Argento's Suspiria. Of course, they would make it PG-13 and thus really churn out some craptacular remake... even if it was rated R. I'm just rambling now.

It is a real shame that in about 10 or 15 years they will have run out of movies to remake. I suppose then they could start the process of re-remaking movies.

Couldn't be worse than the first one.

I thinks it's time for a Howard the Duck remake! ILM could handle the fx's. Howard doesn't even need to be a midget RUNNING 'round in a duck costume (granted that was what made Howard so cool). But they could pull a Jar-Jar and he could be another annoying CGI creation.

Since we are on the subject of remakes...
3 films I would like to see remade (for various reasons):
1. Phantoms - The original 1998 version starring *ugh* Ben Affleck was cheap on effects, cheap on talent (see above), and cheap on thrills. The book is absolutely thrilling/suspense filled and they didn't even ATTEMPT to convey that.
2. The Hulk - Come on! Didn't that whole thing just piss you off?!?!
3. Enter The Dragon - Now don't get me wrong... I LOVE the original. I just would like to see what they could do with today's special effects and today's actors. And I would mess with the story one little bit.

Ummmm... I mean I WOULDN'T mess with the story one little bit.
