Got to love Klaus Dordinger Hans Zimmer..
As for barely improving shallow remakes or sequels, while they create money they'll sell, just to try and recoup the 80's 90's styled coca fuelled marketing loans repayments (supposedly) planned PR bollocks to try and come close to profit - a profit that the film crew, makers, writers and some stars won't see for generally 5 years or longer - because the marketeers and their associated friends have their fingers in the pie first, and they have a lot of fingers for all that hype.
