Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles?

I should walk my comment back a little.  What I don't like is the trend of just remaking movies because, just because they want to make a movie and don't have a good new idea and want to make it for "modern audiences". (think Ghostbusters, Total Recall, etc).

Some remakes are actually decent, like last years Nosferatu.  That was made with an appreciation and reverence of the original.
