In that they are both genres she does not gravitate towards to read? Yes?

I HATED the last book. Hated it. Not only did I hate the ending but the book itself felt rushed and perfunctory — like she wrote it because she had to (and I read them after they were all published so no waiting).

The faith so many commenters have that people aren't dumb enough to actually think and write this stuff is amazing to me. Sure, it may be trolling be there are plenty of people out there who really are this ignorant and aren't just putting it on to mess with others. I'm not sure why there's so much denial of the…

It is spelled WHOA!

I think you should take your righteous umbrage and start picketing party stores instead — way more helium is truly frivolously wasted every day at zoos and grocery stores and children's parties than was used in pursuit of this adventure (which resulted in some real scientific data that will be used in several high…

He is like a really boring bot - same comment on two sites; same reply to both of us...

We wouldn't have MRI machines if people hadn't spent quite a bit of the great arc of history farting around trying to do other things just to see if they could. The path to the useful is paved with what seems to be frivolous. Narrow minds don't make great discoveries — they prevent them from being made.

I can't say as I give much of a fuck what the writer's intent was, actually.

Hon, I hate to break this to you, but we didn't actually have any need to go to the moon nor was there any real mission it served. We didn't need to send probes to Mars or climb Mt. Everest either. We didn't need the internet or iPods. No one needed to move faster than a horse could gallop. We didn't need to fly or…

That is a thing of beauty. I think someone should do that with remakes - too bad that site seems to have been abandoned or we could suggest this as an entry.

Automail! I can just imagine Winry Rockbell's reaction to these awesome early examples.

I forgot Brubaker; he's great. A lot of the older Bat-book writers were good and they did some pretty great stuff. They lost me with War Games and I really haven't ever even wanted to come back, no matter how good things are supposed to be. I figure if they stand the test, I'll read the trades some day.

Which is one of the many things I love about it.

Yep! Mine, too, and it was not even the first remake. I did inadvertently repeat some others that had already been mentioned but I was trying to list new titles from what others had already said and that had already been mentioned.

Wow, that barely even comes up on the internet. The picture on imdb is from the original movie's soundtrack! There isn't even a full cast list and it isn't mentioned at all that I can find on Wikipedia! So the universe agrees with me and buries nearly all evidence of this remake's existence. As it should be.

There is literally only one movie I think they should never try to remake and that is "To Kill a Mockingbird." Harper Lee never published another novel and the world doesn't need another film version of it, either. Both are perfect and should be left to stand.

You mean like when the old Hollywood directors would remake their earlier films? That kind of originality? Do you know how many "original" old films were remakes of silent films?

An Affair to Remember, The Magnificent Seven, Cape Fear, Heaven Can Wait, Fatal Attraction, Freaky Friday, Homeward Bound: The Incredible Journey, Invasion of the Body Snatches, The Italian Job, A Fistful of Dollars, The Parent Trap, Wanted, Scent of a Woman, The Ten Commandments, To Be or Not To Be, True Lies...

Seriously, don't be that woman—the one who undercuts other women by focusing on the silliest and most shallow thing about them and acting like it fucking matters.
