Remember the Psycho remake? It was just a colour version of shot to shot the first film with new actors.

Reboots are being done because Hollywood is running out of ideas and they are also worried about losing money, so they try not to venture into something that's been done and has been proven successful. Why do you think there are so many reboots and remakes of older movies and Japanese movies or of old TV shows? There's nothing original Hollywood has left.
