See, I'm just concerned because it feels like nothing is sacred anymore.

I see it a little more positively. I look at it as more of an homage and an attempt to bring attention and give respect to the original, kind of like the Psycho remake that was nearly shot for shot the same as the original. Even if its bad, it still will only show how far superior the priginal is, and every reviewer will comment about that difference, giving even more attention to the original.
Then again they could put cast Martin Lawrence and have "Kung-Fu Fighting" playing in the background the whole time, so who knows, but I prefer to be optimistic
I can see where you're coming from, though, as it is in my top 5 films of all time (the restored Criterion version is AWESOME).
