How do they fly around these parts? Not that I've got completely unoriginal ideas (though that would certainly get me a job in Hollywood quite easily. HA!), but I've thought of some old TV shows or movies that could be adapted today if done right, and VERY CAREFULLY. I am well aware that one false move and a remake/adaptation is just ruined.

Should I go for it? Or should I just not even bother and try and think of a good original idea? It's just, I've got a lot of things going on that's been leaving me kind of creatively drained lately, so nothing's really come to me. I've had these remake ideas on my back-burner for a while though, so I figure "Why not, just for funsies?"

Go for it.

Totally go for it! Just because it's not your original idea doesn't mean you still can't be creative when you write the script. I only write adaptations from novels (mostly because I need some one else to flesh out my original stories) but I love it becuase I get to take a novel that I truly love and try to share it with people visually!

Redos are always a good idea!

Go for it, totally! I am doing the same!
