Second Time's Th...It's usually a total bummer when some movie studio decides to remake one of our favorite movies. But not every big-budget remake is an utter disaster. In honor of “Frankenweenie,” director Tim Burton's remake of his own 1984 short film, here are the blockbuster remakes that stole our hearts... and the ones that broke them. —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photos: Warner Brothers)

BEST 14. 'Rise o..."Apes" isn't a remake of a particular film, but a renovation of the whole "Planet of the Apes" concept. Director Rupert Wyatt and star James Franco brought this stunning reinvention to life in grand cinematic style.—XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: Fox)

BEST 13. 'The Ri...In the past 10 years, few films have struck fear in the hearts of audiences quite like "The Ring." The success of this Naomi Watts film, based on a 1998 Japanese movie, sparked a craze of stealing horror films from overseas. —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: DreamWorks)

BEST 10. 'Charli...Tim Burton's 2005 remake of the original classic "Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory" was an unusual take on a childhood favorite.

BEST 1. 'Footloo...Fans of the original 1984 Kevin Bacon classic have been in an uproar over this remake, starring newcomer Kenny Wormald and Julianne Hough. Fortunately, director Craig Brewer's fresh take (despite its nearly identical script and soundtrack) streamlines the original film's drowsier moments and adds emotional depth to the story. In short, it's a good time. —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: Paramount)

WORST 9. 'The Wo..."The Women," in its original 1939 form, is a Joan Crawford classic. Unfortunately, it gets a heavy-handed "Sex and the City" face-lift in this awful 2008 remake. A better title would have been "The Woe-men."—XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: Picturehouse)
