10 Stupid Remakes That Will Probably Happen Soon

5. Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid

Whoever decided to team up supreme Hollywood idol Paul Newman with new kid on the block Robert Redford deserves all our thanks. The chemistry between the pair is phenomenal and, with a brilliant script, tremendous locations and a great song from Bacharach and David, this is practically untouchable. There are plenty of average films that can be improved upon so, as Butch might say, €œWhat€™s the matter with those films?€ Please, let€™s not try a remake with George Clooney and Brad Pitt. Although they make a similarly roguish pair in €œOcean€™s Eleven€ (passing over the awful sequels) that was a remake of a bad film, which is a good thing... Right?
