Fair enough. I feel like I really need to see the remake just to make my own comparison. But from what you say I already see one problem. We call it a remake, and yet it's nothing like the original. Shouldn't a remake pay homage to the original by staying faithful to it's story, characters, etc? But like I said I haven't seen it so I really can't say anything. When it comes out I'll look for it online and give it a watch.
