  • Eh, I’d rather the remake makes some changes, otherwise what’s the point of just doing the same thing again. Generally speaking the closer the remake is to the original the less value it adds. Sometimes these changes work and sometimes they don’t but I’d rather they take a swing. Like Psycho or Funny Games or Oldboy or anything Disney has done in the last decade are exactly like the original and feel completely pointless. Even when they’re done well like the Ikiru remake Living they just feel a little hollow.

    All this being said, I think the most successful ones are where they have a completely new take from the ground up. Compare the new Planet of the Apes remakes to the 2001 Tim Burton one. The new ones go in a whole new direction and feel like they matter whereas the Burton one was a complete failure. Scarface and Oceans 11 also come to mind as successful remakes because the director got to put their on flair on the story.

    PSN account is free, you probably already have one if you owned one of the last 3 PlayStation consoles. There are paid add-ons if you want the multiplayer or the gamepass like subscription.

    What’s with all the downvotes, it’s literally an answer to the question. Are you guys mad I didn’t editorialize the information with personal opinions?
