Simple Question

Instead of remaking movies,

wouldnt it be more cost effective to just re-RELEASE the originals?

Ok,

a certain % wont go to the theatres, being that they can buy or rent the movie instead.

and maybe those who have seen the originals, wont have the desire to go to the theatre either.


BUT, lets subtract all the costs that go into a movie pre,post,and&production, etc

Wouldnt the profit still be there?

I don't remember too well, but how did the exorcist do when they re-released it?


I personally beleive, that it would be FAR more entertaining to see the classics up on the big screen.

And for the record, I AM ALL ABOUT SEQUELS. No matter how bad.

If by NOES 25, the plot has jason driving a taxi in new york city. I wont complain, its a fresh new (and stupid), plot to kill time. A bad movie with a favorite horror icon, is much better than a bad movie without a fav horror icon.

BRING ON THE SEQUELS
