Justified remakes

[Drunken Master]

Bollywood is one area I have tried and failed in. May have something to do with the fact that almost every film seems to drag a thirty minute plot idea to about 3 hours.

I quite liked the remake of Texas Chainsaw Massacre - and I love the original!

I agree with all the others mentioned - on top of those:

Maverick was good fun (though that was a TV series made into a film),
Rob Zombie's Halloween was a good watch,
I too enjoyed the US version of The Ring,
Star Trek was great,
I actually quite enjoyed The Taking Of Pelham 123 remake
Even the Assault on Precinct 13 remake was more than watchable...
The Hills Have Eyes was a solid remake
The remake of REC was pretty solid

Ones I am looking forward to:

The A-Team - I think Liam Neeson is an inspired choice for Hannibal
The Karate Kid - I know I shouldn't, but after the trailer, I am actually quite optimistic
Robocop - I loved the original, shame about the sequels - hopefully this will be good
Clash Of The Titans - one of my favourite films of all time, one that I didn't think needed remaking, but the trailer looks awesome!

Apparently the Robocop remake has crashed and burned. Aronofsky wanted to go down the 3-D route but MGM weren't interested so it's stuck in development hell.

Yeah I know, I read that on 411 - I can't see why they feel the need to do 3D on every bloody new film! It should only be used for films that will truly benefit from it rather than doing because everybody else is!
