Either Hollywood writers are really lazy or no one has a clue what a bad idea is. Why do we have "new movies" coming out that are reboots of previously non-stellar tv shows or movies?

I am ok with super hero reboots. Those can't be majorly screwed up. my big problem is the amount of remakes.  I laughed about Charlie's Angels, The Smurfs and Godzilla. But Robocop? The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles? Green Acres The Movie? I draw the line at Green Acres! Seriously?

The only reason Green Acres worked on tv was because of the times we were living in and the Eva Gabor/Eddie Albert combo worked. She was a glamorous icon. We don't have any of those anymore. And if we did, she wouldn't be interested in making fun of herself.

It was a crazy show. It will never work now. Am I right?
