However in the case of a Character base film, when the Actor who plays the character is changed and then on top of that the character its self is changed, to me it is Destroyed it is no longer what it once was.
    This simply wasnt a thread to just B**tch it was to show support to the Original and it let it be known that these movies are important. Dont think for a second Im trying to ban remakes, because I will be first in line to see these movies. I just find it disheartening to take someone elses ideas, there pride and joy, and do with it what you will.
    And to answer about the Universal monsters being Adapted, if they were actor/ character based then yes they are. I mean by that if the movie is more remembered for the Actor who gave life to that character, and how that Character took over the movie, and it is remade without that Actor to give those qualities to that Character.
    Are you serious? Of course they are "charactor/actor" based films. Who doesn't remember Bela Lugosi as Dracula? Boris Karloff as Frankenstein's Monster? Many, many people still believe that those two actors are the only ones who can/could play as those characters. But that didn't stop those characters from being redone dozens and dozens of times. Everyone still remembers those movies, those characters, and those actors fondly. Christopher Lee is famous for his portrayl of Dracula, and none of his movies "destroyed" Lugosi's legacy.

    The only ones who don't acknowledge those actors and those movies are the younger generations who can't watch movies that are that old. Regardless though, their performances have become embedded into pop-culture and have shaped the way others have adapted and view those characters. Just like Freddy, Jason, and Michael are. Those three have become embedded so far into pop-culture that it doesn't matter what actor is portraying the character, it doesn't matter what year a movie about them is being made. Everyone is very familiar with their look's, gimmick's, music that they instantly recognize them without the aid of the 'original' actors.

    Thanks, cata. I really didn't feel like saying the same thing I've been for months now.
