Wizard Of Oz remake
Hollywood has officially run out of ideas:
Warner Bros. Plans Wizard of Oz Remake Source: Deadline, TheWrap November 17, 2010 Warner Bros. has plans to move forward with a remake of the classic The Wizard of Oz, reports Deadline. Planning to shoot from the script to the 1939 version (which, though it is by far the best known, wasn't the first filmic iteration of the L. Frank Baum story), WB is said to be in talks with Robert Zemeckis to helm the property. Zemeckis, meanwhile, is currently working on a performance-capture remake of The Beatles animated film, Yellow Submarine, and was announced to make a return to live action with a time travel story, Timeless (though that has been called into some question with the news that Phillip Noyce is now attached to potentially the same project.) Warner Bros.' version of The Wizard of Oz would go up against Disney's planned Oz-prequel, Oz, the Great and Powerful, in development now with Sam Raimi attached to direct. Summertime Entertainment, meanwhile, has planned an animated sequel to the original Oz tale entitled Dorothy of Oz, planned for release next year. UPDATE: TheWrap has confirmed that Zemeckis does not have plans to direct the remake. Read more: Warner Bros.

You know, I used to be one of those people that got pissed off about remakes, one of those "OH NO - they're going to ruin the original!" kind of people. But I eventually matured to a degree, came to my senses and chilled out about the waves upon waves of remakes - "Whatever man, I just wont watch it if it looks bad...and who knows? Maybe it'll get people interested in the original."
That said, ideas like this make me want to jump off a bridge.

I don't think one's feelings about remakes has to do with level of maturity.
