Well, it worked so well with other time capsule hit action films like Total Recall and Robocop, it's totally worth it!
Okay, can someone point to an 80's/early 90's action property remade in the past 15 years that worked?
I'm not against remaking films, as some of my favorite films are remakes (scarface, the Thing) but I don't get this. Willis caught lightning in a bottle and Rickman went from nobody to a legit actor with this one role. Unless you can duplicate THAT, there's no point. Their performances made the movie what it was. It's not even fair to ASK actors to follow that.
