1. Even though he is technically 16, male teen actors don't play their age, so the whole "driving" aspect of the movie would likely have to go bye bye, and that seems like a huge part of that story.
2. And then there would be the idea that young Mr. Bieber's in-character mother in teen form desperately wants to have sex with him. I think that might have been too weird for the audience such a remake would cater to.
3. Of course, think about that wonderful culture shock that 1988-1991 would provide modern audiences. Wow, you don't have twitter and facebook and your cellphone is the size of a brick and only 3 people have them. Wow, how did people live?
4. Does anyone think that a young teen guy and an older scientist being friends wouldn't raise some eyebrows these days? I mean, yes, Doc Brown is a totally harmless older gentleman who just happens to hang around with a teenage boy. There is nothing wrong with that, and no one would ever be suspicious of that relationship.
With those reasons out of the way, I think if producers are so intent on going back to the well on Back to the Future, it should be Marty's kids who are the protagonists and it should take place in 2015, so that the original movies happened, and it is just a new generation of adventures.
That is if someone wants to tackle the series again. I hope they don't.
