Cliffhanger Reboot

According to MTV News, "Does anyone out there remember director Renny Harlin’s 1993 mountainside action romp 'Cliffhanger?' Forget about it if you do, because a reboot is coming. Variety reports that StudioCanal will team with Neal Moritz’s Original Films for the production, with a planned 2010 start date for the shoot. Of course, that shoot will first require a script, with the search for a screenwriter already underway.

The original 'Cliffhanger' stars Sylvester Stallone as Gabe, a mountain rescue climber who flees to a lower altitude life after his actions result in the death of a co-worker’s girlfriend. Gabe is forced to climb again when a distress call comes in during a visit with his former colleagues. As it turns out, the signal is little more than a ploy staged by a group of thieves, who become stranded after their in-air heist goes awry and their plane crashes. Gunshots ensue, hostages are taken, and only Gabe can save the day."

"Just as they rebooted 'Star Trek,' we're going to do the same with 'Cliffhanger,'" said Moritz, who will produce. Unlike the original, where Italy stood in for the Colorado Rockies, the new redo looks set to feature multiple cliff-face locations. Word is that this updated version with focus on a group of young climbers (that's where that "Star Trek" reference comes in) as opposed to one climber and a group of angry henchmen.

I don't really see how you can compare "Star Trek" (a cult following from over 40 years ago) with "Cliffhanger" (an action film coming off the success of "Die Hard" in the early 90s).
Would you rather see a "Cliffhanger" reboot, sequel or nothing new at all?
