@StephenDedalus7416 күн бұрын
Absolutely ! The magic and the beauty of the visuals were the result of Gilliam's auteur vision and the use of poetic FX with imagination and tricks and illusion instead of modern tech... This remake will be forgotten as soon as it will be released, and we will still watch the original and love it :)

@markadams704613 күн бұрын
There have been times when remakes have been better than the original. The original silent film of Ben-Hur was considered a great film, but it was remade, and the remake far exceeded the original in quality. Just because a film was great, doesn't mean it can't be made even better. I think it's worth seeing if this one can live up to challenge.

This won't be the same and it's not supposed to be. It's a new take on it, made for today's young audience. It's not intended for us that watched the original.

@@Beeti1 Yeah take a look at Disney Star Wars destroying the name Star Wars, turning fans to anti-fans and their last iteration "Acolyte" ended with 5% of the audience that "The Mandalorian" had. Its not as if a horribly bad politicized remake will ever destroy an IP and turn people off to it.

Presumably Terry Gilliam signed off, and made a boatload on, this remake. Good for TG. But why? Maybe he's getting old and just figured he'd cash in even though he has no need for the silver. I bet he has no credits, other than 'based on' or some such nod. If he's not in creative control, he probably just wants ZERO to do with it; he figures it'll fade quickly, and people will realize how much better his original is. And his original is a truly great movie.
