From Beyond is also getting remade.

And The Thing. Which is just wrong.

Also Train is a remake of Terror Train.

Robocop might get remade. Sounds dumb at first but the fact that Darren Aronofsky is the one interested in doing it, this could turn out fantastic.

Same here and besides destroyer was an abomination

Conan Barbarian--------->Destroyer

The Breakfast Club will be called something else, and it's going to be set in an Airport apparently... so the whole school detention thing will be out...

Not really, if you look in the Train topic in the Horror section about that. Terror Train is getting another closer remake.

Okay,

Red Dawn - never seen it.

Weird Science - Why redo this? this was only good in the 80's now it would fail.

The Karate Kid - Saw it coming.

Friday The 13th - Could be good, but that's just the horror fan in me talking.

Top Gun - WTF!!! WHYYYYYYYY!!!

I believe there's a live-action He-Man in the works as well.

Seen the trailer to Friday the 13th and that movie looks like it's going to kick tons of ass. I'm anxiously awaiting that movie.

It's just one of those movies that it seemed like they would remake, so i knew they would one day.

But it's one of those classics that I thought that they would leave alone. But of course, Hollywood has to rape it.

Great, you again.
"Spider-Man", in my opinion, was amazing. They took a 40 year franchise and put it to the big screen in a way that encompasses all of the reasons the comics are so popular. Remaking a film that's meaning and overall quality is far from outdated is just freakin' ridiculous, especially when people are still watching the old one. Might as well remake "Rocky" and "The Godfather" while they're at it.
