Titanic will be re-released in 2012 as a 3-D movie, 100 years after the doomed ship hit an iceberg, movie buffs are speculating on what other old movies might be remade into 3-D. The huge financial success of James Cameron's Avatar, shot in 3-D, and Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland, converted into 3-D after shooting, opens the floodgates to popular older movies resurfacing in 3-D, not unlike an aging actress who tries to resuscitate her drowning career with a face lift.
Other popular movies that are likely to be converted to 3-D are the Star Wars series and the Lord of the Rings trilogy.
Here we feature the top movie remakes you should go see.
The 'Three Stooges' is to be released this April 13. After all the troubled casting and developmental stages, it settled with three not so familiar names to portray the comedic roles. And yes, Snooki from 'Jersey Shore' has a cameo on this one.
'Dark Shadows' will feature the amazing actor in Johnny Depp once again this coming May 11. It is a remake of the popular television show carrying the same title. This will somehow serve as an introduction to the entirety of the former television show considering that many in this generation now may have not seen it before.
'Snow White and the Huntsman' is all set for June 1 which serves as a great example of featuring an old idea to a brand new audience. It features a talented and popular cast headed by Charlize Theron and of course, the ever charming Kristen Stewart.
'The Amazing Spider-Man' by July 3 is directed by '500 Days of Summer' director Marc Webb. This is one serious gamble as others think for Sony. However, the most recent poster of the movie features what is untold behind one of the most popular superheroes of all time.
Other remake titles to watch out include 'Total Recall,' 'Dredd,' 'Red Dawn,' 'Evil Dead,' 'Lone Ranger,' and a lot more.
