The Cellar - View Single Post - Movie Remakes that really suck compared to the originals

Most remakes suck, because they are trying to copy the original, just with a bigger budget.
Reinterpretations can sometimes work. Tin Man (reworking of the Wizard of Oz) might - might - be passable, provided you aren't assessing it as a remake.
