If film studios and executives are hell-bent on continuing the remake trend, constantly farming known movies or IP for new takes, then they need to take a much closer look at the Western genre. There may be an aversion to Westerns because of the price tag that sometimes accompanies the set and costume designs, but the genre has already proven itself as a bountiful well for remakes and reimaginings. The Coen Brothers gave new life to True Grit in 2010 and out shined the original in every way. James Mangold's 3:10 to Yuma may not have been better than its predecessor, but it was a damn good ride that got a younger generation excited about what Westerns could be.
