The original is a classic and is a great movie but I have to say it. Finally a creature that will have more than one facial expression in the movie. I've been hoping for this movie to be remade for a long time actually.

This one might just work altough It is considered a classic. special efects and colour might tip the ballance as long Gill-man dose not look like a transvestite Mermaid.............

Changing the Gillman's looks would ruin this movie. Do like they did with the Wolfman, use the same design. Thats my vote and im stickin to it!

I also hope they don't change the Gill Man very much.

I hope they don't drastically change the look of Gill Man. I love "The Creature from the Black Lagoon" and I have a feeling this remake is going to suck, but one never knows...

Yet another classic horror icon to be bastardized by Hollywood. THE CREATURE FROM THE BLACK LAGOON is one my favorite monsters of all time; 2nd only to the werewolf of course. Wink So far, Hollywood has NOT made a decent remake of the horror classic movie since I think DRACULA and FRANKENSTEIN in the 90's.

We ALL know that this remake (if it gets done) will be nothing more than CGI monster in a CGI word with CGI blood. THE DAY THE EARTH STOOD STILL was pretty much that-CGI. Though I have to admit I didn't find it that bad, but it did feel like it was an unnecessary movie to make. THE WOLFMAN looks to be like the only decent remake, but again, how many times has something look good then turns out to be a disappointment.

Here's crossing my fingers that either this remake dies or its done really well.
