Back to '90s Remakes Hollywood Should Consider
'Dick Tracy'
Why remake it?: Not all comic-book characters deserve their own movie (see 'Green Lantern' and 'Cowboys & Aliens'), so returning to past successes is the way to go. Sony is already doing that with Spider-man, so let's do the same with 'Dick Tracy.' Warren Beatty talked over the summer about doing a sequel, but come on: this has George Clooney written all over it with Paul Giamatti Big Boy Caprice and Lady Gaga as Breathless Mahoney. You laugh, until you realize it sounds totally believable.
