Howdy, fellow film freaks, Robert here, and I feel the need to sound off about that misunderstood step-child of the modern movie industry, the reboot (or "remake", if you're of a certain antediluvian age). Running them down is a favorite pastime on the Intertubes; the movie clubs I follow on Facebook maintain a running and spirited debate about them. In the expected style of the Intertubes, this debate often disgraces the schoolyard's noble traditions of reasoned discourse. But it still bears discussing; we have gotten a lot of reboots over the years, and there appears to be no end in sight.
