Okay, that is just sick and wrong!
Rocketeer is an undiscovered treasure, my 2nd-favourite live-action feature, and the movie you haven't seen but ought to. It is magnificent.
Next thing you know, they'll want to remake my all-time fave, 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea.
Wait, what...?

It's seriously whacked, I know. My personal feelings regarding remakes are complicated, but in a nutshell, I give remakes chances if they have a totally different spin on the source. For example, one of my favorite movies of all time is John Carpenter's The Thing. Even though that's a remake of another classic sci-fi movie, The Thing from Another World, The Thing had a unique spin and was very different. I despise it, however, when movie studio execs just go, "It's been 20 years? Let's remake The Rocketeer for fits and shiggles."
Sorry, I didn't mean to ramble. Long story short, I'm not pleased by this news, but I guess we'll just have to wait and see.
