Hot because: In Hollywood, no one admits their mistakes; they just start all over again and say they're "re-imagining" a franchise. It just sounds better than ... "we call do-over." 2007 saw Rob Zombie make a killing (pun intended) with his re-imagined Halloween, and tons of others are following in his footsteps.

How to stay hot: Take the time to listen to fans, and don't waste energy on origin stories. Up next in re-imagining land: This summer's The Incredible Hulk.

Next up: Pirate? Or serial killer? Yes, please!!

Where did they rank?
