It's official: Hollywood has run out of ideas. Why else remake a film that isn’t that old - 1987's "Adventures in Babysitting"?

Yes, the beloved film starring Elizabeth Shue, Keith Coogan and a weirdly blond Vincent D’Onofrio is getting the redo treatment, this time with former Cosby kid Raven Symone in the title role.



What’s next? "Sixteen Candles"? "Three Amigos"?

"Adventures" isn’t the only Reagan-era movie being pimped out for a new generation. Other remakes currently being readied include: "Porky’s," "The Stepfather", "Red Sonja", "The Hitcher" and "All of Me."

Eighties movies aside, even acknowledged classics aren't safe from the remake frenzy. Last month, the Weinstein brothers announced plans to remake Akira Kurosawa's 1954 masterpiece "The Seven Samurai."
