These reboots of movies that doesn't require reboots achieves only two things for me... it reminds me to go and watch the origial movie again, while guaranteeing that I won't bother watching the reboot.
Remake movies that had good ideas and poor execution, or visa versa. Don't bother remaking movies that are already good.
Actually don't bother regardless. Fuckin Hollywood can't get much right these days.

I just watched Highlander a few weeks ago and I think this one qualifies as good idea, poor execution. The one scottish person on the cast played a spaniard, and it's not just some scottish dude. Why didn't they make the main character a frenchman?! He doesnt even use a scottish sword!

Wash yer mouth out! It's definitely a case of terrible idea, great execution - in fact, it's such a terrible idea that there was literally nothing with which to build a sequel out of. Every other Highlander movie and the tv show was little more than an awkward retcon milking exercise and little more.

A French main character? In a USian movie? I guess you forgot about that whole anti-French "Freedom Fries" charade.
You know, I wish they'd just stop their derivative "remaking" and "franchising" and actually just start being inspired by the movies of old again.
I've been asking for this for decades. I really want a hyper violent modern highlander TV show.
