No reason for remaking it. This was the greatest sci/fi flick for its time. Today it would pale in comparison of others to come after the original
exactly,they already ruined war of the worlds with their stupid remake,now they're gonna go and do the same thing with this movie.

This is a classic film. Very good. Keanu Reeves is in talks. Thoughts? Opinions?
Good movie to remake; as it's been 50+ years, it's time for a remake.
Bad news is, Keanu, dude can't act worth a shit, unless he's playing some sort of loser and/or stoner, i.e. Bill & Ted's..., I love you to death.

I love this movie. To re do would be a bad thing. Since they though, getting Reeves is a mistake, they should look for someone else.

I don't think "redos" are intrinsically a bad thing, as the original is, well, original and not affected. My problem with redos, is when they do them too early, let a movie age 30, 40, 50+ years before it's revamped.

What is there to lose by remaking an old film? Like Robtard said, the original remains as good as it always was no matter how the newer version turns out.
...and as "Charlie & The Chocolate Factory" showed us, a less-than-exciting redo will make 'you' appreciate the original all that more.
hmm a Redo of a classic, Im kinda glad, This way i can sit around and watch another WANNABE great hollywood Remake.
Why, i can see the Tag lines now.

ok, on a Serious note, The Day the Earth Stood Still is a Classic, Its being Remade, Try as hard as they might, its not going to be as good as the Classic, So why not let them remake it, they have to much money anyway, why not let them waste it.
