The movie has already been made. It's out there. :dunno:


The Wizard of Oz is a remake. Should that not have been made?

I suppose you are referring to the glittering botchjob of 1939??

No. The world would have been better off without that version. :dunno:

Remakes are made for one reason and one reason only.

Movie executives believe they are less of a risk for their production company's cash. A tried and tested idea is less likely to be a bomb. As long as the movie business is a business remakes, re-imaginings, sequels, prequels, adaptations and rip-offs will take precedence over original ideas.

This film again. Gave me dreams and nightmares as a child. I remember at one time I couldn't tell if seeing it was a dream itself or reality (due to the passage of time) until someone posted it here last year.
