Will Smith is living vicariously through his son with this type of move. Will's just a bit too old now to "wax on, wax off", so he's enabling his chicken-headed son to be loathed by all the children of the 80's. Smart move. There's absolutely no point in remaking "good" films that are only 20-25 years old. Why not remake films from the 30's-60's?? The great scripts are there for all these brain-dead, starbucks swilling, fresh-out-of-college writer gimps. Only now they'll have colour, CGI and Vin Diesel. Yay!
