You know mllemass I felt that way about a few films and yet...
One of my all time films is A Night to Remember and yet I loved Titanic.
I adored the Alan Bates/ Julie Christie version of Far From the Madding Crowd and thought it could NEVER be redone with such on screen emotions and yet when I saw the Carey Mulligan’s 2015 version and I had to eat crow!!! It was resplendent!
And you know my all time favourite movie is Lawrence of Arabia - everything is magnificent about it from start to finish (to me). It is the perfect movie as far as I am concerned. BUT... if a few years back (he is getting a little too old for the part now I think) BC had been cast in a remake of that I am willing to bet he would give my darling Peter O’Toole a run for his money!!!
That last one is pure imagination, I admit, but a girl can dream... LOL!
But I guess what I am saying badly is - you never know until you see what someone fresh can offer. But on the other hand, some remakes REALLY stink - so you could be right!!!
:-))

Fun fact! My stepmom is related to the producer of that film, William MacQuitty.

I've never even heard of A Night to Remember, but now I have to see it! I thought the only other movie about the Titanic was The Unsinkable Molly Brown. Ever since we learned about the Titanic when I was in elementary school, I've been fascinated by it. I suppose that my parents' stories about our voyage from Italy to Canada by ship when I was a baby had me wondering what it must have been like. I was excited to see Titanic when it came out. It was playing at a brand new multiplex with huge screens, so it was everone's first movie that they saw there. But I hated it so much. I have so many problems with that movie that I can't even be in a room with people talking about it!
