OK I'm going to argue from the other side of the coin here.
#1 Remakes are a great idea, that way today's youth can experience a great movie and then find out is a remake and go check out the original.
#2 To be honest fucking Romero is a hack.... he hasn't done anything decent in years, so it was better to let someone else have a shot at a remake of his movie.
#3 I thought it was a great remake, I hold the original on a pedistle, but this one is great. The actors didn't give Oscar worthy performances, but damn they weren't that bad. Now they need to make a remake of Cannibal Holocaust and all will be good in the world.
#4 I bet if they had called it by another title, Romero fanboys would be raving about this movie instead of bad mouthing it.
