I don't actually have a problem with remakes as long as something new about it is brought to the table. 'The Thing', 'Assault on Precinct 13', 'The Italian Job', amongst others, were all excellent remakes and gave me some of my fave older films a modern uplift. I also enjoyed all of the Japanese horror remakes into english ('Ring', 'The Grudge', etc). They can also be terrible, but I don't have a serious problem with it. I still think the original Kong is the best, though.
Don't forget the Heston 'Ben Hur' was a remake in a way, as was 'Gladiator'.
