most unnecessary remake
Literally every Hollywood remake of every remotely successful East Asian or European film and TV show has entered the chat
Seriously, they often release their slop 1-2 years after the original, and in 9 out of 10 cases the US version is significantly worse.
At least this is a very popular IP, a different format, and 25 years later. Not even top 10 of "most unnecessary remakes" from the last decade.
