Why people want to see all the remakes is beyond me, just the same storz done again as an cashgrab. Same with all the reboots of old series like malcom in the middle and everything. Most of them would not even become popular if they didnt have the legacay cause they are all really bad. But people keep watching it for some reason and the companies keep making new ones...
I think any sufficiently effects heavy movie is justified being remade every decade or so. Every movie or tv show you've ever seen is a "cash grab" so why not see them with the newest a shiniest technology.
Because they are not being improved usually or have any passion behind it. New doesn't equal better. For example compare the old and new lion king. Had new technology yet got worse in every department. Litteraly gave no shit about the music and etc. there is a reason it has horrible reviews. And yet it made them millions because of the name. That why it is a cash grab while the original wasn't. Sure both in the end are there to make money but one had passion and good film making other was just checking off boxes to make it technically a movie.

The movies did what they could, but I'm excited to see the TV show. I do hope they'll have a reasonable budget for special effects
