The only way they will conceivably be remade is when Disney loses the copyright for the franchise, and it is a public domain IP.

But personally, I think the Saga is pretty great as it is. Its perceived imperfections are part of what makes them special, at least to me. Even if it was remade, no one will ever agree what is “proper” or not. Some might like the prequels or sequels remade, but then you would have a group of old timers who would see it as sacrilege to remake the original trilogy. It can never be done more “properly” than as it is now, so it will never satisfy everyone, in my opinion. With that in mind, why not try to appreciate the films for what they are?

Now saying that, I think it would be cool to eventually have comic book adaptions or new novels of the whole saga made in the context of the whole saga, with some slight liberties made to make the episodes more cohesive, possibly. But new movies that are just remakes of the old movies? Everyone who was alive when the OT was released would have to be dead before I can fathom that actually happening, when it is not as sacred anymore.
