  I think the thought of a new nightmare movie is a great thing, I only wish they could have gotten robert to have part in it, considering he was what made freddy in the past it should only be fitting that he gets to revive the character for a future remake

  I sometimes think Bay and co remake everything to make their original concepts look better. The TCM traversty’s real purpose was to make the Rock and Pearl Harbour look like classics. Either that or they genuinely belive that every film ever made would be better if they featured lots of shots of girlies in very tight jeans and crop-tops. Yeah, that Stalker is a pretty good movie. But imagine how much better it would be with Megan Fox, lots of CGI, senile dope jokes and some kick ass action scenes.
  Having said that Friday the 13th was so crass it became almost touching. Boobs, weed, Jason kicking it old school and Sister Christan on the Soundtrack. The 80s man, we were there

  I think remakes is not always a good thing. And I really don’t like the idea of remaking movies that are GREAT ALREADY. What, there’s a HUGE new-ideas-crysis in Hollywood? Filming computer games, remaking over and over again good movies… next what? Toilet-paper-instruction-based trilogy?
  Sad…

  Classics are classics. Nightmare should not be remade. Halloween should not have been remade, nor Jason, nor Chainsaw. These classics are classics. What’s next? Remake Jaws and Star Wars? sheesh. It’s proof that Hollywood knows that people will pay some dollars to see how technology has affected the movie, even though everyone knows it will have not NEAR the impact it had the original time because then it was less about tech and more about story! That’s how they became friggin’ classics! Grab a new generation, okay. But can we give it 30-40 years before you drop kick and mangle what was once beautiful? (even if it was only 80’s technology)

  Jaws is one of my all time favourite films. But if someone remade it I would be first in line to see it. The problem with remakes is no matter how bad they are you are curious enough to waste money finding out how bad they are.
  Thus Bay did say unto his deciples, “Go forth and remake, for I see great profits”. And so it was and ever shall be.

  Remakes shouldn’t even be made Unless the original was seriously terrible or if the original somehow was lost/destroyed. Or if the person who wrote the original story were 100% involved to make it just like the one before. “A remake of Starwars?” Why not, but only if George Lucas works on it but doesn’t change the story.
  Someone above me said why not wait 30-40 years, I support that by saying wait over 50 years at least. Seriously are they going to make a remake of A Nightmare on Elm Street? Another good movie going to the grave to be screwed up. Hey Jaws fans, here’s a spoiler for the remake of Jaws should that day come… the Shark is a Genetically engineered shark that escaped from a secret military base, turned out some scientists tried to also get rid of the evidence but got eaten instead. And worse, this shark can crawl out of water. Yeah that’s probably how screwed up a remake of that will be…

  I feel Hollywood has come to the point where they’re old, and can’t do anything original anymore and rely on making remakes by ruining a good or classic movie or story. They rely on CG effects and want to spend less just to get more money. Makes me wonder, what happened to the good old days were we went to the movies with friends to actually enjoy a movie that wasn’t based on something else.

  Also considering how technology has advanced, anyone curious about a movie just needs to go online and find out if it’s done badly or not, and if you’re patient enough you can probably watch a friend’s dvd or somehow get a chance to watch the movie eventually with a little something saved. If a remake is done well I will waste money on it but if not then it’s not worth it.

  I want to know why Hollywood just cant seem to make good movies anymore? What the helk is going on? Don’t they understand they still have to have a story to make great movies people will stay and watch and pay for. I can not find any movies anymore that haven’t been remade at least once well except a movie called Eraserhead and that in its own right is a kind freakishly scare movie again someone HELP us, I’m tired of these Hollywood Moron’s
