…yeah, but…

I mean, sure, properties with less appeal have been rebooted. I have no problem seeing someone remake this rather than, say, The Last Starfighter. (Oh, wait, someone’s got the rights for a sequel to that. A remake of Beverly Hills Cop? Darn, TV pilot. Um. Just pick something that hasn’t been remade yet. If you can find one.)

But if it’s crap, and the odds favour a remake being crap, it’s the way people will think about the character for years to come.
