I loved the running man (book). I agree when one reads the book, the movie is just weird LOL. I would love to see a good adaptation of Neuromancer. It was a great book.  Another SCIFI film that should be remade is Starship Troopers. I love the book and I wish that they could have atleast followed it. I don't think the directors even read the book. They just said hey lets make a movie named after this cool looking book. They probably read the back of the book and just worked from there LOL.

Star Wars being remade is meh. The OOT shows a time when George Lucas was an innovative and proud director. It might be nice for some but I don't know. It would just be weird to see somebody else piloting the millenium falcon. Nobody can be Darth Vader like James Earle Jones. I saw the 97 Lost In Space movie and I liked it but the original was not burned into my mind like Star Wars was. To me ANH and ESB can be regarded as perfect. They stood the test of time. Look at the 1930's Popeye cartoons in Black and White, then look at the 50-60's version in full colour. The 60's version looked way better but Popeye just wasn't the same any more. Plus in some regions or versions Bluto was copyright haxed and they had to change his name to Brutus and make him fat.

I would watch Star Wars remade but I probably wouldn't like it. What I would like to see is animations with the original cast going on new adventures. See that millennium falcon blasting through the deep reaches of space.

I have actually thought of doing a Star Wars cartoon with completely new characters in the style of Titan A.E (No plans anytime soon I might just be fanticizing but nonetheless). It would be amazing to see atleast for me. Of course I would have to do it Non-Profit because GL or LF would say NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!! in the darth vader voice.
