Secondly, no films needs to be remade. Remakes are done for the hell of it. Someone liked/disliked something about the original & wants to put their own spin on things. In this case, they liked the original & wanted to expand on it more.
On a related note of that, remakes do not have to be exact duplicates of the original. It would be an insult to moviegoers everywhere if they just 'traced' the original.
I liked the remake a lot. Better than the first? No. Just different.
