I heard a rumor floating that they were trying to do a remake of the original in todays timeframe. I guess seeing the trailer backs it up. And FYI I heard about it BEFORE the first, so I'll give it some weight for validity. I agree, the remake is going to stink the way technology has advanced. Sadly hardly anybody today has ever had a "colored box" or even knows what they are except a phew of us that used our ears to our advantage. Mom Bell was fun to play with back in the day, sad when they made it hard to with the upgrade of the trunks for phones.
