Ranker's 125 Movies That Should Never Be Remade - Page 2

"Some of the worst Hollywood movies of all time happened because an executive somewhere decided it would be a great money making venture to remake some of the greatest movies of all time. The classic movies on this list of movies that shouldn't be remade are revered because they are inimitable, yet somehow, movie executives keep dredging their vaults and resurrecting movies that were already brilliant in misguided efforts to make them 'better' (well, probably just to make money, let's be real). The scary thing about making a list of movies that should not be remade is the possibility that a decision maker somewhere will see the list and decide it's the perfect place to start looking for new movie ideas. These classic films are on this movies that should not be remade list because they were amazing the first time around and don't need to be 'improved'." - ranker.com
