Lets remake `Alien`, `Aliens`, `Terminator`, `Predator', `The Abyss` and `The Thing` as well shall we (sorry my minds in Sci-Fi mode for some reason).

Why remake films that already had the winning formula.

Add to it, expand on it, but stop trying to redo it.

Don't the 'Directors Cuts' do this anyway.

the original (1986 !) was great; its sequels not so.
IMDB is quite puzzling in this matter: 1 (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0465657/) or 2 (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0299981/)? or none and they were all videos only?

Highlander is one of my TOP 5 films EVER!  But I have to agree with most here that remaking isn't the way to go.  MAYBE add another sequal (such as Indiana - even that is stretching it a bit) but don't remake a classic pleeeease!
