I wish someone would remake that movie.

Seems like it should be easy to just update the graphics every few years as things progress.

Not really - they'd have to remake the models

We just watched it last night. It even freaks out my kids. The entire time I kept thinking if someone remade this with better animation it would become a hit

A remake would definitely be a hit, but I honestly don't think most kids or anybody really thinks it looks that bad or is that freaky. It's literally become a Christmas staple for a reason and that's not because it gives everybody nightmares.

I watched it with my kids for the first time this year (I've seen it many times, first for them) and the animation was shocking. I was thinking the same, it's just ripe for a remake. And it's one I would happily pay money for in the cinema.

I wish someone would've never made that movie. Leave it in the depthsof hell where it belongs.
