Well the original Dune with Sting was a masterpiece, but yes I did find the new version was pretty good. Well you're spot on with Krull - it was a great movie. It upset me when Roger Ebert and Gene Siskel dissed this movie (please go to 12:33 of the video below) and I'm glad I ignored the review and went to go see it. I would be surprised if the Krull remake is any good for the reason you state - I predict it will be a woke trashfest.
Gottlieb even came out with a Krull pinball machine, but they only made a few of them. I remember they put the pinball machine at some of the theaters' debut of Krull and I had a lot of fun seeing the movie along with playing the Krull pinball machine (https://www.ipdb.org/machine.cgi?id=1397) a little before and more extensively after the movie.
