‘Ben-Hur’ Leads to $48 Million Write-Down at MGM - the end of Religious epics?

I didn't even know there was a remake. I first thought, why post news about a 67 year old movie!
The original looks fantastic on blu-ray btw, still great to watch, religious or not.

Hands of Lawrence of Arabia, another awesome classic. Oh ffs they already did http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1837636/
