First one I thought of when I saw your post was Vanilla Sky!!
TECH SUPPORTTTTTTTTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ππππ
Need to rewatch that one sometime.
Forgot to add From Dusk Till Dawn. I didn't know anything about it when I saw it and thought that it was just a typical Tarantino type of film until halfway through it.
Yeah it's interesting how Tarantino did that, it's almost like to seperate movies in a way. The movie just does a total 180.

shareWatched it and own it!!!! I like it too. But since I saw Vanilla Sky many times before I saw the original, I'm partial to Vanilla Sky more. π

shareExactly. I agree!! My only exception to that (for me) is if the original is an old black and white, I tend to lean more towards the remakes. (Not very recent remakes though). Remakes made in the 70s and 80s were labors of love, you could say. But very recent remakes are all about big CGI fests. No heart and soul.

shareI saw the original first. I liked that one better. I liked both though.

You're not bothering me. This is what we are all here for for right lol??
2 examples would be:
Scarface. The Pacino version is better for me.
Against All Odds is better for me than Out of the Past.
I'm afraid these are the same 2 examples I said on your original post though lol.
But, uh, I saw both of these remakes first LOL ππππ

shareSure, I like Tom. π

shareYes, that's a good topic. As far as Tom, I like him, but I don't watch movies specifically because he's in them. Most of his movie just happen to be good. Actors whose movies I watch specifically because they are in them would be Ralph Fiennes and Colin Farrell. Some of Ralph's movies I would not have been interested in them had he not been in them.
shareI prefer Abre Los Ojos too. Especially for the lead actor in that. I can't remember his name but his performance was so good.
shareDo you mean, did I see a remake first and I think it's the superior to the original? Offhand, I can't think of one but I've seen so many remakes and I had no idea there was an original.
