Absolutely agree.

Seems normal for producers now to just pick a random 70s, 80s film that was good at the time and then expect it will be a box office hit.

The Fog - Awful remake of Carpenter’s classic. Nightmare On Elm Street - No Robert England = No Freddy.

Basically any horror remake with Michael Bay’s Platinum Dunes as the production company equates to shite.

The Karate Kid remake.

Ok where to begin......well for starters the title was erroneous straight off the bat as in this version the (annoying as all hell!) kid is clearly studying Kung Fu as opposed to Karate.

I suppose at least it had Jackie Chan in it (in fact he was the only good thing in it!)

Actually a couple that weren't bad that come to mind - The Taking Of Pelham 123 and Cape Fear not better than the originals but not woeful either.

I also heard that the remake of The Magnificent Seven wasn't bad either.

One that surprised me as I was up in arms when it was announced was the recent Dad's Army film that actually wasn't bad and showed a lot of respect to the original series.

I think the obvious ones have already been mentioned, Get Carter and The italian Job. Both absolutely horrendous re-makes. Another one springs to mind though as well, The Jackal(the re-make of The Day of the Jackal). I hated that re-make, not even bothering to try to be near to the story.

There is another one though that just makes me seethe with anger, the film Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy. Anyone old enough to remember the 1970's BBC series ? If you do, you will know that no other actor could be George Smiley other than Alec Guinness and the perfect Connie will always be Beryl Reid................the film is like desecrating someones grave.

I don't think I've ever watched a remake. I just won't do it. Its lazy filmaking. I know Peter Jackson remade King Kong, and I usually like Peter Jacksons films. I thought about watching it, because frankly the original was pants. Then I found out Jack Black was in it and that stopped ne in my tracks. Jack Black...a man so desperate to emulate John Belushi but fails at every turn. He's mire like a lightweight Meatloaf.

I'm like that with Agatha Christie films/tv series. No one can play Miss Marple (Joan Hickson was perfect) and no one can play Poirot other than David Suchet. Kenneth Brannagh in the recent film was horrible!

The film itself is good. It's been a long time since I read the book which helped. I couldn't stand Jonny Depp, but he's murdered quite quickly so that's ok (not a spoiler). Brannagh is ok, but he just doesn't look right.
