Remakes are supposed to be an updated "improved" version that is a tribute or otherwise a compliment to the original, but in so many cases they are simply insults and flat-out failures. I can only think of a very few remakes that I thought were worthwhile and well-done. The remake of Dawn of the Dead comes to mind here. It at least did the original some justice.
On the whole I'm not much of a fan of remakes.
If the remake of Red Dawn turns out to be well-done, well-written, well-casted, and doesn't suck then I may approve of that one. But for the most part the Original classic movies that are WORTH remaking are mostly works of art that should be left alone to stand as they are.... classics.
