And they will all bomb. The only type of movies that should be remade are those that sucked, but had potential (for example Ben-Hur, the famous version with Charleton Heston, is actually the second remake of a movie that originally bombed). If a movie is already massively succesful, and considered a classic (like Gone with the Wind, which is universally acclaimed by critics, and actually has the highest cinemat attendance ever, the most watched telecast ever etc.) then a remake of it (which will no doubt be inferior in every way) will bomb hard.

Iconic movies shouldn't be remade!!!

I agree.I'm still waiting for Warner Bros. to remake Matrix 2&3

I'm still holding out for George Lucas to remake Episodes 1-3 lol.

Please no!

If he does it we may end with a movie without actors, only CGI... imagine how many Jar Jar Binks would be there! **shivers**

Conan and Sucker Punch.

I'd say Cowboys and Aliens, just due to the star power and hot director. Did anybody really think Conan would make money? And people had been down on GL since Comiccon 2010.

The only one I expected not to fail was Pirates. It didn't bomb persay but it DEFINITELY underwhelmed.

I knew Green Lantern would disappoint 100%; making their heavy ad campaign a waste of cash. I also felt Zookeeper was promoted too early before release.

conan, i knew as soon as i saw the 1st trailer for it, that it would bomb hard. jurassic park ( potentialy going to be remade,spielberg isnt sure if the next one is going to be part 4 or a reboot),back to the future,dirty dancing,jaws,the thing,hellraiser,the last starfighter ( might get remade too, if that happens i will kick universal studios a$$ all over this damn planet ) and the list goes on and on.

Why would Cars 2 be dissapointing when it did well for such an awful movie? It didn't deserve a penny

Conan for sure, as I actually enjoyed that film, if you wanted to watch Conan the barbarian, it was perfect, I'm surprised to see it do so badly :/

You know, I hadn't thought about it like that... and it would be entirely plausible, considering the all-CGI "Clone Wars" snoozefest of a movie that came out a couple years ago.  And just think... right now he's hard at work getting ready to re-release them all in 3D, probably with some more changes as well a-la the "special editions" he put out of the original trilogy where he managed to ruin the originals forever.

Though I can't imagine reissues of 1-3 being any worse... but then again, nobody thought that Indy 4 could possibly be worse than all three Star Wars prequels combined.

You know I was always wondering why no one ever used the dollar sign for $ony, but then I realized they have no money so it would be pointless.

LMAO...sorry to bother you imma gonna let you finish but I just want to say...Willow was one of the best movies of all time...of all time!!!! :P

I voted cowboys and aliens. I thought it would be more popular then that. as with the conan remake,anybody could have seen that flop coming from a mile away.
