Barb Wire has such great potential for a remake.

As long as we keep Mr. Bradley, I'd definitely be open to it. The NOES remake in my opinion was beyond repugnant, probably my least favorite remake of all time. Everything about the makeup and dialogue seemed completely substandard, not just thoroughly modernized - but I totally agree, Robert has a sense of playfulness and wicked humor that is really hard to match.

Agreed, terrible remake. If you're going to remake a classic, at least take the material in a completely new direction. It was a laughable copy and paste job void of any personal identity. Ugh, hate that film.

Robert is the only Freddy Krueger.

I would like to see Peter Jackson, the Wachowski's, or Ridley Scott tackle a trilogy of Dune films based on the original book.

The Battle of Britain.

Not necessarily the same script as the '69 film but I would love to see a decent film on the subject with today's technology.

Yes - Great idea.

Im also going to take a TON of flak for this but I dont care:

Blade Runner needs a remake. Yeah. Needs more character development, better story build up, a little more action, and some better editing. Should have and could have been sooooooo much more. As it stands now, the film is pretty bleh IMO. Tons of potential but simply doesnt cut it.

There, I said it.

I'd really like to see all the campy Roger Moore 007 movies re-done.

None...why not come up with new ideas. Tired of seeing films or franchises cheapened by senseless remakes and reboots.

There isn't a single movie you'd like to see remade because it didn't get the attention to detail it deserved, in your opinion? Surely there's something out there.

I think it'd be interesting if they make it closer to the original novel.

An 8 movie deep remake of the Vampire Lestat series, filmed one right after the other with the same actors and treated with as much respect as the Harry Potter, Twilight, Hunger Games series has. Each movie would be 2 1/2 hours long.

Dane Dehaan as Lestat.

For me, the one that instantly springs to mind is the favorite movie of my childhood.. Clue. Absolutely love that movie and can watch it over and over again. The original is almost thirty years old, so I believe it's about time for a remake. Hell, if they can make a movie about Battleship, they can make a remake of Clue. I really, really hope they make one at some point over the next couple of years. I've already thought about my "dream" cast for it if it ever happened..
