Sometimes I think Ted Turner had a better idea: colorize the classics don't re-shoot. I do like the B&W originals and just making a comment.

 Given the diversity of the human species, there is no “normal” human genome sequence. We are all mutants.

So....pretty much any remake would qualify.
My only "partial" exception was the "War of the Worlds" remake.
Although they didn't build up the story as much as the original (You know how a story builds momentum as the plot develps?), they did try to make the aliens more like the originals from the H.G.Wells story. Beyond that it was just Hollywood crap-filled garbage.
Give me the classics any day of the week, colorized or not!

Turner should die painfully for colorizing Casablanca and the Maltese Falcon.
Or at least be locked in a room and forced to listen to his ex-old lady's political diatribes for weeks on end. |

Redundant.. |
He that would make his own liberty secure, must guard even his enemy from oppression; for if he violates this duty, he establishes a precedent that will reach to himself.

IMDb Video: The Bishop's Wife
The remake of the Christmas classic, The Bishop's Wife, with Denzel Washington in the Cary Grant role and Whitney Houston in the Loretta Young lead....pathetic...
