Damn it all to HELL!!! Can't the "remake everything" Hollywood people just DIE?
One of the best animated movies in the past 40 years?
They want to re-make it along the "Alvin and the Chipmunks" style.

2. It's more expensive to try something new
Hollywood wants a sure thing that will make a buck. So it is doubtful that those who only do "remakes" will ever die. In fact, start looking for remakes of the remakes, coming soon to a theater near you!

3. And people will keep going to remakes... then continuing to whine about them...
And those who say "it's bad" are heckled if they don't sit through the slop to begin with.

Vicious Möbius strip...

4. Someone on the radio this morning was saying that the upcoming sequel to Tron is excellent
but it's still Disney, so how good could it possibly be? At least it's not a strict remake...
