Oh. Well, they tried.
They saw "wave of successful low budget religious movies" and forgot the whole low budget part when they went to make it.

Saw Ben Hur today. I actually enjoyed it...Until the ending.
Wait...Ben Hur's a religious movie? I thought it was just podracing with wheels.

A Ben-Hur remake is like two steps away from the Citizen Kane remake on the arrogance scale. Bet we'll get Lawrance of Arabia and Gone With The Wind by the end of the decade. And I'm not even going to bother Googling if those are happening or not until they get a trailer.
We're already getting a Lawrence of Arabia TV show on HBO. For reasons.

Remember the shot for shot Psycho remake whose only addition was Vince Vaughn fapping?

To be fair if you adapt the tv show from the autobiography Seven Pillars of Wisdom you can probably get enough content to make a lawrence of arabia tv show work and be compelling in it's own unique way.
Ironically, what you're saying is what movie producers say all the time when it comes to remakes of things based on other material: "We wanted to retell the story but stick closer to the source material". And, it's usually just marketing spin.
The real question is when will we get a remake of Space Cop
$100M remake?
Jonah Hill as Space Cop
Adam Sandler as Ted Cooper
Johnny Depp as Grigg
What was the ending?
I like how surprised he is at the bowl bouncing.I made a gif that will have many uses:

Spoiler for the Heston movie:
That was the ending of the 50s version too. They saw Christ crucified and the rain cured Judah's mother and sister of leprosy, then he put down his sword. Or were you talking about that one?

Wait.
Someone made a Ben Hur remake?
REALLY?
Well you could say the same thing about The Wizard of Oz, but I'm still sitting here waiting for my dark Tim Burton remake.Just as an FYI, the Ben Hur that you think is the original, was actually the 3rd version of that story on film.

Carter would be the Wicked Witch and Depp is the Scarecrow obviously.Which characters would Johnny Depp and Helena Bonham Carter play?
If PreRec thinks No Man's Sky has pretty graphics then they themselves are potheads. I mean sure it looked neat two years ago in the trailers but in reality every stream I've watched it looks like a PS3 game at the best. Any "art style" it has suffocates under the constant popups and blurry NES-era textures.
But maybe it's just the streams, I dunno. For sure a stream even at highest quality has horrible artifacting compared to a proper game being played on the spot. Also I just don't like the kind of art style that looks like it was dunked into a vat of slightly off pastel colors. I mean don't get me wrong I do love that it has unique art style to it but I kinda feel the same as Rich when he asked "Why is the space yellow?" in one of their streams.
