Okay, do we really need a remake of every movie? This is getting ridiculous.

Another day, another remake.

Creativity.

Get some Hollywood.

no it doesn't need a remake. The original is really good. I guess a remake would add more skating stunts. That's about it.

Why must they remake this? It was a great movie!

I am going to start boycotting remakes like I do the Disney Classic sequels.
