There are some really good movies I wouldn’t mind a modern rendition of.
Forest Gump, I think, would be an absolute winner. Whole premise could be redone every 30 years (yes it’s been 30 years) with great effect.

I always felt like Flowers For Algernon was such a compelling book and the only movie i know of is one of the worst things I've ever seen. You would think it was a comedy based on that movie.
Downsized.
Actually use the cool idea of a dystopian future so expensive, it's more economical to shrink down to the size of a GI Joe and ditch the romcom shit.
I wasn't sure if rollerball was big or not at the time.
But in todays age that could do with a remake. Dystopian movie, with world run by the corporations and humanity is kept satisfied with entertainment.

His Dark Materials was like this. The Golden Compass was poorly reviewed, and I'm glad that the TV series were made.
I either want a remake of Stealth or a sequel. It wasn't terrible, but could have been much better and a desired franchise....by me at least. Guess I'll go re-watch Macross Plus again...
no game no life zero
Sequels too. A perfect movie can't benefit from them, but shitty movies might be able to.
