I don't mind remakes because I'm a snob and love to tell people how superior the original was/is ;-p
My moan about remakes is that they're all turned into glossy teen horrors (now this could very well be my age coming in to play here) and may have lots of bloody gore but the cast's are plastic and lacking any kind of substance.
Halloween (original) the teens were naughty
Halloween (remake) the teens deserve to get killed
Black Christmas (original) the girls are nice
Black Christmas (remake) they deserve to get killed
And so on...
I cannot believe I Spit On Your Grave is being remade and have a feeling it'll be graphic but will be glossy and the "message" will be lost and it'll be all MTV'd up!
