* In ''Film/TheParentTrap1998'', it's surprising how much of the dialogue was almost exactly the same as [[Film/TheParentTrap1961 the 1961 original]]. It also kept several of the important plot lines from the original (i.e., the camping trip, the grandfather discovering the identity of the two girls, and the recreation of the wedding dinner). Having said that, however the remake did deviate pretty heavily at times. The recreation of the wedding dinner happens much earlier in the remake and ends up failing, unlike the original, leading to a heavily altered third act. Aside from the camping trip, it almost completely deviates from the original.

* The 1949 film version of ''Literature/LittleWomen'' is more of a remake of ''Film/LittleWomen1933'' then a new adaptation of the novel. It uses a slightly revised version of the same screenplay, has the same main musical theme ("Josephine" by Max Steiner), features costumes by the same designer (Walter Plunkett), and even has one actor reprise his role from the earlier film, Olin Howland as Amy's teacher Mr. Davis.



* The ''Series/FaerieTaleTheatre'' adaptation of ''Literature/BeautyAndTheBeast'' is essentially just a condensed remake of Creator/JeanCocteau's ''Film/BeautyAndTheBeast1946'', both in script and in production design.

* An especially weird case, horror host Joe Bob Briggs presented a marathon on Shudder of {{Film/Halloween1978}}, {{Film/Halloween4TheReturnOfMichaelMyers}} and {{Film/Halloween5'TheRevengeOfMichaelMyers}} in 2019, then presented just the original again for its 45th anniversary in 2023. The 2023 presentation used an almost identical script for the host segments as the marathon, which was still available on Shudder.
