@Nic82 … are you new to watching movies?

Money. EVERYTHING Hollywood does is motivated by money. They provide entertainment, and remakes make money and hopefully are entertaining. But its simple. Money.

Why do bands cover other band’s music? You think they are “doing it better” or are they just entertaining?

If they do bring back the Cobra Kai i’d be happy, hell bring back Ralph as the Evil Dojo Guy.

The Yakuza idea is cool toolike they idolize them or soemthing but aren’t the kids in the 10 years old range, i don’t know much about the Yakuza but i don’t think they recruit that young do they lol :P

Just remeber to go for the sweeps!

then why remake it if they dont want to ‘fix’ it by making it better?
i think this would work better if they made it part of the franchise and didnt call it a remake.

Who says they are trying to “fix” the movie.

Sometimes a movie, is just a movie.

Unfortunately Hollywood is doing it again. Trying to fix something that ain’t broke. When will they leave classic films alone, or any film for that matter classic or not. Once it is done it’s done. Give some new talent ago. I’m sure there are plenty of writers out there that could have come up with a fantastic martial arts script for this kid if it’s what he wants to do, instead they ruin a good film. I know it’s not the kid fault. To tell ya the truth I thought he had smarter parents, once with a little integrity and originality… Guess i was wrong.

@Leandro…. so all those hundreds of original movies that get released every year dont matter because of the 5-10 remakes?

Thats a pretty narrow point of view.

I think you just have no more original thoughts about movies except to accuse them of being unoriginal… which in itself is inaccurate and unoriginal.
