it's a remake of a movie that was made 57 years ago....

so it seems to me that a remake of a movie from that long ago, gets a bit of a pass.

Whereas if it's a movie that the current 30/40 years saw as a kid, that's what they will get pissed about

Yes, some better comparisons are the remakes of Robocop and Total Recall. -- nm - Roger More Aug 16, 11:06 7

  - the Totall Recall one made me angry, but that was after I watched it cause it sucked donkey balls -- nm - Beaker Aug 16, 11:21 2
    - Robocop was shitty too. -- nm - Shaun Aug 16, 11:24

  - I remember people bitching about but since those dropped with a thud no one really cared. -- nm - Remlik Aug 16, 11:21 1
    - But there wasn't, say, hugely negative responses to their trailers, campaigns to boycott the movie, people angry about it existing, etc -- (edited) - Roger More Aug 16, 11:33
- yeah, these are what I was thinking of -- nm - Beaker Aug 16, 11:06
Right? How many of the people whining and bitching about Ghostbusters never even saw Ben Hur? nm - Jim Aug 16, 10:43
