If anyone ever tries to remake Singin' In The Rain, they will have me to answer to!!

 

Re: Gone With the Wind - NOBODY could play Rhett Butler like Clark Gable did. I hope they never try!

 

Some remakes are very ill-advised, but occasionally the remake can be better than the original. True Grit for instance - I far preferred the version with Jeff Bridges than the one with John Wayne - although technically that wasn't a remake; just another adaptation of the book by Charles Portis.

 

Also Scarface with Al Pacino was a remake which was better than the original.
