Upcoming Remakes No One Asked For - Movies Feature at IGN: "There once was a time, long ago, when the Hollywood system would come up with brand new ideas for genre films. This time has unfortunately passed, and it's starting to feel like all we have to look forward to is a crop of regurgitated plot lines from movies that are either already sitting on our shelves, or are available within minutes via on-demand services.
Don't get me wrong, there are classic films that are actually remakes themselves, like John Carpenter's The Thing and Brian De Palma's Scarface, though at least these were remakes of extremely old films, and were significantly different in their approaches to the material. Some films in the current line-up of remakes however, only date back to the mid '90s! At this rate, we'll probably be talking about remakes of Fight Club and The Matrix in a few years. When does it end? "
