It might be interesting to note that a lot of movies that fell short at the box office have, due to other income such as video sales and sale of streaming or television broadcast rights, eventually broken even or become money-makers.

Remakes You Wouldn’t Mind Seeing

  1. Raise the Titanic

Although I’ll never see it until/unless Clive Cussler, who wrote the original novel, has total and complete control of the script.

Sweeping epic that was just kind of flat. Not pushed very well by the studio either.

Less Fascism Lite but with powered armor, dammit! They should hire some of the Iron Man production team. It could be awesome.

This movie started out terrific as a bronze age grave-robbing investigation with political intrigue and became just another Kirk Cameron type Jesus flick. Could have been epic if they left the story as it was.
