I think it would be better to remake movies that need a second chance as opposed to fricking with something iconic.
So you believe that the Charlton Heston version of Ben Hur should have never been made yes?

*sigh* walked into this one, there is a larger gap between the silent film era and sound eras then there is between the 50s stunt technology vs modern cgi. At least in my opinion.
Modern cgi with these reboots is throwing something flashy into the mix and hoping it sticks. Rolling a turd in glitter a lot of the time. In the modern Ben-Hur the actors were brilliant and the stuntmen had huevos. Not some guy in front of a green screen. One of the films that has lived up to the reboot was Mad Max: Fury Road, they used CGI but it was used to enhance the stunt work already in the film or in Furiosa's case, by giving her only one arm to give the audience something to think about with 'how did she lose it, did it involve Joe?' It created backstory
