Timber - Its not the directors that fund the movies its the studios. They will only back things that will make money, just like any other business.

These re-makes are NOT artistically driven, they are market driven. People will go to see them and thus its a safe return on the studio's investment.

Not all remakes are crap, just most of them. They get quality people in to work on the movie they commission so they don't totally suck, but it's usually formulaic and lazy.
