📖 Long READING
Some movies are called classics because they are special and loved by many people for years. When a movie becomes a classic, people remember its characters, story, and music. Movie studios sometimes make remakes of these classics. A remake is a new version of the original movie. Some remakes are good and bring the story to a new generation. But many fans believe that remakes don’t have the same magic as the originals. For example, the original “Ghostbusters” is a classic from the 1980s. A remake was made years later, but many people still love the old version more. It had a better story, funnier moments, and more charm. While remakes can be interesting, not all movies need a new version.
