A lot of classic movies have great stories that are a shame to use only once.
What should be remade:
San Francisco (1936): great cast and effects (for the time period) but today they could make the earthquake so much more powerful and the recreation of circa 1900 life in HD color would be a real treat- costumes, buildings, etc. Ditto for In old Chicago
Jayne Eyre - remade multiple times already, there is no movie version yet that has ever come close to the issues and complexity of the novel and every movie version hacks off important sections of the book- maybe someone will get it right
Them (1954) What could today's CGI do with giant ants? What if they moved fast?
Shane (1954) I always felt this movie was a good story held back by miscasting and bad direction
