They should have at least waited until 2016, 20 years after the Leo/Claire version.

Give me Olivia Hussey any day over THIS. And hell, I'll take Claire Danes ANY DAY over this.

It's another adaptation of Shakespear's book.

Someone who makes a movie based on Les Miserables isn't "remaking" any of the previous films, they are doing a new motion picture based on the same source material as in books. A remake is when it's based on a motion picture produced earlier and an original screenplay like Ocean's 11 or King Kong.
