Now they are remaking "The Running Man" and "Short Circuit".

Wonder when they will be doing the remake of "Batmn:the Dark Knight"?  :rolleyes:

Don't mean to bump an old thread.. But seeing this didn't fail to remind me of this thread.
Universal gets "Asteroids".  Synopsis should be interesting.

The irony I find about most remakes, is that the movies most worth revisiting have no reason to be remade in the FIRST place. They were good movies the first time around. They're STILL good movies. They always WILL be good movies. What do you need to remake it for?

It's comparatively rare that it's a crap movie being remade. It's almost always a classic.

I just read there's a remake in the works of Total Recall, too.
