Get over it, people. There are only 3 basic stories out there. Things are going to get remade.
Shakespeare recycled previous stories, we recycle Shakespeare. SSDD.

Just look at the movies that are playing in theatres (it doesn't matter the genre), and you'll see what I mean. And to be perfectly honest, I don't think these people remaking old movies really give a hoot one way or the other. It's easy money to them. If they cared about the movies they were making, they wouldn't be remaking them.

Disagree 100%. Any remake I have ever seen, if I flipped over to the interviews and "special features" I always found a central concern being that of paying homage to the original. These people do have jobs, and no one wants to be thought of as making a bad movie. Why do we presume writers and directors don't care about their jobs? Isn't that silly?
