What remake would you like to see happen?

PaunchyBald mentioned a desire to see Ole Yeller and Where The Red Fern Grows remade with better actors.
I was thinking the other day that it would be interesting to see Flash Gordon remade (keeping some Queen music, though), and it turns out that the Sci-Fi channel is remaking it.
But I was disappointed to see that Voltron is going to me remade in live-action to tap into the Transformers success.
It would be interesting to see The Prisoner done with a modern take by the right folks.
Most remakes seem to suck and they're being churned out at a crazy pace, but are there any movies/tv shows that you think deserve a second chance as a remake?

Star Wars with real actors and real dialog. Don't let Lucas even breathe on the screenplay.
Also, Road Runner cartoons. I'd like Wile E. Coyote to be able to catch and eat that annoying bird this time though.

This is interesting. It doesn't appear to be much of a remake, but they seem to be marketing it that way. Kurt Sutter to Remake Bruce Lee's 'Enter the Dragon' http://www.cinematical.co...ce-lees-enter-the-dragon/ |

I'd like to see Casablanca redone, but I'd change the ending so that Rick gets laid before she flies away.
