James Wan is one of my favorite directors, Sam Sokolow. I'm looking forward to seeing The Creature From The Black Lagoon! I'm sure James Wan will make an incredible movie. And I'm looking forward to seeing Wolf Man! Leigh Whannell is directing it.

I honestly would really only be interested in seeing classic monster movies remade if they are made by directors with a notorious visual style (wan falls into this category so I am excited about this). I want to see...
Frankenstein directed by David Fincher
Dracula directed by Tarsemm Singh
And just for Gits and Shiggles - The Mummy directed by Wes Anderson (come one - that would be hilarious)

Renee Lohoue it spares development time and therefore costs. you can simply copy ideas, plots, characters, arenas etc.

Read this earlier today, Sam Sokolow. I think he'll do it justice.

Just keep making redos. play it safe for filmmakers and executives. Who is foolish to develop original new stories & characters and risk losing your job?
