For The Love of God... Why?

I was scanning the RSS feed for Sci Fi Wire earlier today when I saw a brief story on Warner Bros. studio doing a big screen adaptation of Stephen King's It . Well this idea is horrifying enough, what with all the other remakes coming out of Hollywood these days... No, the true horror came upon me when I read this:

Kajganich is also writing Escape From New York for Neal Moritz and New Line.

Why in the name of all that is holy does this movie need to be remade?! That's a rhetorical question of course.

C'mon, Hollywood. Enough with the remakes. Give me something original and I will go back to the theater. Otherwise I'm just going to stay home. Feh.
