    The Karate Kid

    Twice this week, I've been excitedly duped in to stopping on this horseshit of a remake.

    Who in the hell thought it was a good idea to try and better Daniel Larusso??

    Oh, and, screw you, Will Smith!

    I'm also guessing you never saw the abomination that was the Dirty Dancing remake.

    Why would a man want to see either Dirty Dancing movie, unless it was the porn version?

    Yup.

    Original Karate Kid - yes

    all the others - shit

    Original Rocky - epic (awesome love story - and it was shot on a super low budget - even for the time)

    all the others - meh

    Original Back to the Future - yes

    all the others - fuck off

    I never saw it, but I know Disney re-made Herbie with Lindsey Lohan and I'm going to assume it sucked
    The Grudge

    Dave K DaveK über alles!

    Robocop
    The 7 reboots of Spiderman
    Total Recall
    Flubber
    Arthur (that unfunny idiot Russel Brand needs to be murdered for his role in this turd)
    Bad New Bears
    Mr Deeds

    Ya' know what, any 80s/ 90s action film that some hollyweird executive wants to reboot to cash in on nostalgia.

    Ghostbusters

    But the real question is have you watched the Cobra Kai series on Youtube? There was a thread on here a while back about it. Its the REAL Karate Kid sequel that was meant to be.....just without the budget and big screen.

    Although I want to like Righteous Kill - it is basically a poor sequel to Heat - one of the most awesome movies ever. Sadly, it sort of could stand on its own, but we all know it plays second fiddle to one of the most bad-ass copper movies, ever.

    I don't know that I consider it a remake, it's basically a sequel.

    Does Jackie Chan get on this list for remaking his own movie? Drunken Master

    Good point. I was lured in by Dave’s reference to Ghostbusters thinking of 2 and 3, not the most recent remake with three females.
