I don't understand why classics (and just generlly great movies from the past) arn't just cleaned up a bit and improve the audio and re-released? It seems that the studios wouldn't do anything but profit. Psycho still holds up and it's being re-made. Yeah seeing Scarlett Johansson in the shower would be nice....Damn...I just ruined my whole point.

Highlander was wicked and I think should be left. A huge reason that Highlander looked so awesome and was so different was the director, Russel Mulcahey (Spelling ? maybe? lol) Was a wicked music video director. He did Duran Duran videos and I saw an interview and he literally stated he wanted to do it like a 90 minute music video. Old MTV interview or something.

Will they ever be able to make a proper Godzilla movie?
Sweeney Todd
On Broadway this was an amazing piece of musical theater and Sondheim's best work - On the big screen it' was tragically reduced another one of Tim Burton's signature grotesqueries with Johnny Depp, no less. It's tantamount to doing a Tim Burton version of Field of Dreams and selling it to a new generation of folks unfamiliar with the original.
I would have it remade just so we can Tim Burton's vandalism from memory.

SORRY for the necro.
But I was thinking tonight...I wouldn't mind seeing Darkwing Duck come back.
Also with highlander (which was mentioned only a few posts up, but FIVE years ago)...it's a victim of timing. They kept trying to make sequels because it was the 90's and they didn't yet realize that when a story is wrapped up and has no room for sequels, the real path to more money is PREquels. The story of Ramirez, or Kurgan, or a few centuries worth of Connor's adventures before the gathering could make for decent movies.
and the one that is sure to start an argument: Excalibur.
I know, I KNOW...it's dangerous to mess with such a classic. Plus they had some great actors in that movie...but they also had some crap effects, and film making techniques. I think there is room for improvement there. Also, it's a big enough name, that if a studio was willing to invest real money, they could entice some decent actors to get involved. With modern techniques, I think they really could push it up over the top.

You just want to see Taarna in the flesh. Admit it.

I would like to see the prequels remade by Disney.
So a combo of The Hollow Man and Predator?
