This has "Bad Idea" written all over it.

Why does Hollywood feel the need to remake Red Dawn? (Not that the original was a masterpiece of cinematography, but I'm just wondering if there isn't some other old movie they could kill instead?) Why do I also have the feeling that it's going to be another one of those instances where when it's released on DVD it comes packaged with the original a la The Day The Earth Stood Still? (Which really seemed like a great big vote of no confidence to me.) Come on Hollywood, come up with an original idea. There's got to be at least one out there. (I've got some if you're interested. No? Okay.)
