What is up with remakes?

June 25 2005
I have decided Hollywood can not come up with any orginal ideas. Why must there be remakes of movies, shows, etc. Let us take for an example Bewitch. In my own personal taste it was awful. Nicole Kidman was trying to play Meg Ryan who was playing Samatha off of bewitch. It was just a horrible movie. It wasn't Bewitch, it was a remake with the premise of being Bewitch. The plot was that a famous actor decides remake Bewitch the show, he finds a actress who wingles her nose but she turns out being witch. Nicole Kidman didn't even wingle her nose correctly. Why can't they just leave well enough alone?

There have been good remakes don't get me wrong. The Brady Bunch movie pokes fun at the concept of the show, but also made one think of old times. It was orginal, but kept to the ideals of the show.

There are only so many times one can remake Herbie, The Parent trap, Freaky Friday and so many others. Memo to Hollywood give me an oringal movie like Star Wars..
