The first movie adaptation of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory was quite good, nonetheless they're already working on a 3rd.

Which is interesting because the first one was quite different from the book, the second one tried to stay closer, and both have their points.
I think a remake of the LotR will happen some day, but not for quite awhile (a re-animation of the CG may happen first) - mainly because it was already filmed in high-def and on "modern" equipment.
If it does get made again, it's likely to be in a TV mini-series format, perhaps less on sets and more on dialogue/acting.

A limited series of 10 1-hour episodes will still be shorter than the extended editions of the film trilogy in total runtime.
