Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure, Memento, and The Birds. These are just three examples of upcoming reboots that intend to make a quick buck at the box office.
I don't find remakes particularly exciting, especially if the reboot is a franchise that doesn't warrant it. But sometimes it's difficult to ignore a remake, especially if it concerns an old movie that I particularly like.
A movie that's dear to my heart is the 1987 masterpiece RoboCop. Now, I wasn't impressed when I learned of the proposed reboot. Obviously, the remake was going to be awful, and it didn't require a genius to conclude RoboCop 2014 wouldn't even come close to bettering the original.
