Been getting a lot of unwanted remakes in the last twenty years, Total Recall was one of them. Well remakes and reboots different versions of things can work Invasion Of The Body Snatchers and David Cronenberg's The Fly did it well but apart from the heavyweight of the movie name there usually isn't a good reason to remake or reboot.
shareRemake was just a rehash just set on Earth through and through.
shareAgreed. The thing that bothers me the most is that there are other movies from the past that do need a remake. Although your right some remakes are really good, as those you mentioned, others are awful because they are just shameless money-grabs. The TR remake is an obvious one, they didn't even try to make a good one. A movie that I love that I think could benefit from a re-make would be Brainstorm. Obviously the effects could be improved upon (even though the original effects are quite good) but so could the story. Have you ever thought that a movie should be remade?
shareSharon Stone has a mesmerising screen presence that Kate Beckinsale doesn't come close to.
