    I have no objection for remakes of crappy films. This film was not crappy, thus a remake isn't needed. Why the hell do people think remakes are needed for many of the classic films?
    Owen Wilson & Ben Stiller??? Give me a break!!

      There just shouldn't be a remake of this classic. It'd end up like the remake of "Bedazzled" which just didn't work and was nothing compared with the original. Not just the class of Lemmon and Matthau, but how could you top Neal Hefti's music from '68? Nojust say no to any thoughts of a remake. Go and shoot something original.

        "I think (
        The Odd Couple
        ) could be a pretty good vehicle for Owen Wilson and Ben Stiller. At least Ben Stiller as Felix.

          "The ONLY two actors who could pull off a remake are Nathan Lane and
          Matthew Broderick."
          Completally agreed!

            Owen Wilson, are you insane. OWEN WILSON. What kind of actors do you watch. No-one in the world could redo Lemmon and Matthau legacy.

              Why bother? They're remaking movies all the time but once the memory of the remake has faded, the original is always the one people remember. Think of the film Psycho and which one springs to mind first? The Hitchcock original or Gus Van Sant's remake?

                it was "remade" into a tv show, but an actual remake should be made after the remake trend has long died out

                  If the film is remade which I find likely, it will definately be Lane and Broderick playing Oscar and Felix.

                    Eww! I hope never. Whenever they do a remake they turn it into crap. Are we forgetting the recent remake of "Mr. Deeds Goes to Town" re-done as "Deeds" with Adam Sandler? It's not a really bad movie, it's just not a very good one, either. Why change something that is perfect as it is?

                      Ok guys, this is a long shot, but I've been thinking about it since this summer. But I think "Three's Company" alums, Don Knotts & Norman Fell, would have been GREAT on broadway in "The Odd Couple"!! Imagine, for some it maybe and hard prospect to get used to, but if you think, you can just see it. Don would play Felix, & Norman would play Oscar. Norman fits the part, Don takes a little getting used to but you see it. OH, WOULD COULD HAVE BEEN..

                        "Don Knotts",now that could be a real challenge,after all, it's not easy getting a box of ashes to learn dialog.
