go ahead and shit on corey. he made a whole mess of bad films. his music career that he has spent decades upon has never amounted to anything. he dresses like MJ.

bad remakes ruin people's childhoods, thats how it works. like imagine if your favorite memory was your dad taking you to a baseball game. now imagine some day there is a bad baseball game. it makes perfect sense.

if it is worse than chris columbus' harry potter films then it will be a fucking marvel because one would be hard pressed to do worse.

i am in NO WAY a fan of the largely unwatchable and shoddy harry potter film franchise, but i am an alfonso cuaron fan. i find it necessary to point out that harry potter 3 was better than harry potter 1 and 2, but it was also tedious, marginally interesting and devoid of any narrative conflict.
