I second that no way with a big NO WAY. I was delighted to hear today that a sequel to Goonies is being looked at seriously. I loved that flick.

I am getting a little tired of all of the remakes and sequels-i wish that more original movies would come out-of course they would eventually turn into remakes or sequels later so i guess its a lost cause.

remakes are a good seller because many people will watch it just to compare it to the original even if they have heard from others that it is crap. I cannot think of a remake that is better than the original personally, especially when put into the context of the times/technology of when the original was made. Simply adding CG into a remake does not make it better.

I keep wondering wat movies that came out here in the past 10-15 years will end up in the remake category in the future-matrix,close encounters, iron man, maybe even a total remake of star wars in 50 years.

I would agree with that. Remakes always fall short of the originals.

At the moment most short falls come from trying to pepper a much more diluted story from the original with modern effects. The originals were classic without sich effects and relied more on story and composition alone.

4 sure.
Movies today have way to much "flash" and too little "meat" on their bones.

I miss the movies of my youth-original and had a great story and just didnt rely on big names or big effects.
