I guess I just see this differently than all of you. Go figure, eh?
It wasn't Campbell. Raimi could make another Campbell in a heartbeat. It wasn't the storyline. Held by itself it was crap. It was the director. Someone mentioned earlier that a substitute director would work because they could copy Raimi's style - no way, IMO.
The Psycho remake was shot angle for angle and line for line from the original Hitchcock - it was horrible. It was like watching that last fat third grade kid picked on a basketball team playing one on one against Larry Bird - there was no comparison.
It is all about directing and unless someone as inventive as Raimi does the second, it won't be good even if Campbell has the starring role.
