I wouldn't want to see any of the Skywalker movies remade.
As it stands I think Disney is making a good decision in saying that they're ending the Skywalker story thread.
This is a galaxy with almost unlimited possibilities in terms of stories and characters and they showed that with Rogue One for example. It would be better served if Disney expanded so to speak the galaxy that they play in.
There are so many other stories that are screaming to be told on screen
The founding of the republic. The first split of the jedi that lead to the 100 years of darkness.
there was a great story in the old republic of the Republic being ruled by religious anti-alien zealots. Their version of the inquisition. The founding of the Sith Empire and the war between the Republic and Sith Empire.
You could do other stories that don't involve the Jedi and Sith. You could fast forward 100 years and a galaxy without force users.
I don't know that Star Wars fans would accept a recycling of the original movies or any of the original 9 movies. you'd get huge criticisms like "Nick Jonas sucks as Luke". Or Scarlett Johansson is a terrible Leia. Or Jonathon Pryce is ok as Palpatine but Ian was better.
