I didn't say I necessarily trust reviews. I trust revieweRs. As in if the fans of the original think that they did a decent homage, then I approve. I'm not wasting my money on a bad remake. And incredible producers is an opinion, not fact. Not to dis you, Jake, but I've seen many greats fall in movie making. I try not to put all my faith in anything anymore.
As for Wolfcop... You don't know me well, my friend. I have no limitations when it comes to werewolves. They are my everything and I have watched and bought plenty of bad shit out of the heat of the moment for that fandom. I don't exactly have a level head for my lycanthropes like I do the classics, because I WANT to support anything werewolf. It encourages the people to keep making things for them. It's a genre all it's own, where as a classic should most times just remain as such, before it's butchered in a remake.
However, speaking of remakes, I believe after watching Nostalgia Critic's review for Micheal Bay's TMNT bullshit, I think I've become less anal about it. Remakes are support in their own way, and just another version of it. That's what I keep trying to tell myself, but old habits die hard.
