Around a gazillion new movies are released every year, but when you watch them, do you sometimes catch yourself thinking “Hmm, have I seen this one before?” And you might have! Well, almost. Today we’re looking at the most iconic movies that have hit the cinemas more than once. From animation to 3D, from old-school to amazing CGI, it’s your turn to decide if the movie industry should leave the classics in the archives or make bigger and better revamps of the movies we love.

    The scene where Mrs. Jumbo is in jail and she still cradles Dumbo and she's crying and he's crying and I'm crying just thinking about it.

    Can’t choose, they both are really good. The sequel did honor to the original imo.

    The old one is nice in a campy, non-serious way. The new one is much closer to the book's spirit and has an incredible production design, incredibly respectful of the book's root, sourcing aplenty from the sci-fi artworks and covers of the 1960s

    The new one is called the KARATE kid, but he gets taught kung-fu. Make it make sense.

    I will admit that I probably one of the only people that enjoy the new one, I love the original but I like the female cast one also.

    To me, the original was great when I was a kid, but I wouldn't be able to watch it now. The "girl" one was different, but fun. The newest ones, that no one is mentioning, I haven't even been able to get through

    I don't believe 7% of people preferred the remake, should be waaaay lower.

    Liked both to be honest. Though if you think about the original, Venkman is more than a little bit skeevy.

    Arw you kidding? The 2016 one was an unfunny mess filled with overacting and low brow jokes. The original had clever quips, good characters and great actors.

    The original has a dream sequence where a ghost performs fellatio on a human. It doesn't get more low brow than that.

    The remake might have been OK if it hadn't been edited by a throwing it under a lawnmower. I wasn't keen on remaking GB but I thought doing it with women was a better idea than a remake with a male cast. Who could compare to the originals?

    Literally nobody, which is why the belated third film had to bring Ramis back as a force ghost.

    Ugh at the remake. I didn't dislike it "cuz women". But I disliked that there was no need for it. It felt like a money grab. More or less the same story but trying to create buzz and sales because this time it had a female cast.

    I watched it like if the original wasn't even made, like it was totally new material, and didn't like it, half of the cast annoyed me.

    The later Ghostbusters wasn't a remake, it was something new, inspired by the original. I watched it, expecting to be disappointed. I ended up being impressed.

    I really quite enjoyed the 2016 one when I first saw it. When I rewatched it at home, it was less funny.

    Ah, the beginning of the "Femmakes" (Female remakes) - usually not that successful at all

    It's not about male/female roles. It's about taking classic movies and doing a gender swap rather than just making original films with strong female protagonists.

    Not a gender swap. New characters all. If you're going to moan about gender swapping every day, at least choose examples where it's true.

    The older version with Judy Garland and James Mason was better. But there was the original in 1937, with Janet Gaynor and Fredric March.

    Who gives a damn about whether you think harrison ford or ryan gosling is hot? The first movie is based on an amazing book, the second movie is a sequel. They're both good, the first is better and the poll options we're offered here are stupid.

    For real? The New York one is EMBARASSING. It takes away all the scoundrel charme of Naceri for some generic run-of-the-mill ghetto girl stance, and the impossible to like Fallon character. The original is campy, fun and ridiculous on purpose, the american version is just trashy.

    I love the musical. Saw it twice during the latest touring revival - it is simply the best musical ever produced. The original movie is an abomination. Natalie Wood (who I love) in brown-face and dubbed? Nope. Spielberg did West Side Story properly. He even included the best musical piece "Transition to Scherzo" which is usually left out.
