Back to '90s Remakes Hollywood Should Consider
'Home Alone'
Why remake it?: Judging from the success of 'The Lion King 3D,' families are starved for something to excite them at the local multiplex -- to the point where they paid money to see a film they probably already own on VHS, DVD and, now, Blu-ray. Enter 'Home Alone': the original was a box-office juggernaut, and there's really no reason it can't be modernized for today's audiences. Jaden Smith would star opposite John Travolta and Rainn Wilson, with Will Smith making an "uncredited" cameo that gets promoted in the trailers and on the movie poster. Shawn Levy directs.
