I don't have any issue with the premise of a Ben-Hur remake given its age. I just don't have any faith in Hollywood making a good religious epic anymore.
I think the last really good religious epic I've seen was Kingdom of Heaven and it was the Director's Cut, not the Theatrical Release. That's been over a decade.

I heard that version of the movie was 3+ hours. I want to see that someday, Belle. I have the dvd but not that version.

Exactly. After a certain amount of time movies basically become historical pieces, then it's time to reboot for a new generation. My wife won't watch almost any movie before 1978 because of the way the women act for example. But she might enjoy the same story with a little CGI and a modern female character or two.
I hate it when it's like Spiderman and they want to reboot three time in twenty years.
