[–] Atomic@sh.itjust.works -4 points 2 years ago (2 children) "The Girl with the dragon tattoo" and "a man called Otto" are both good remakes. So I don't agree at all. A remake isn't bad in itself. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] jamyang@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago (2 children) What was that saying - " Exceptions prove the rule"? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] Lemmy_2019@lemmy.one 4 points 2 years ago* 'Prove' in this context means 'test'. Like the proof of the pudding is in the eating. Just an aside. permalink fedilink source parent [–] Atomic@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 years ago No it was something about confirmation bias I believe. permalink fedilink source parent [–] steeznson@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago* I'll concede that the FIncher movie was a good remake that deviated enough from the source material to be worthwhile. However I guess we'll need to agree to disagree because from my point of view the good foreign remakes are greatly outnumbered by a lot of lazy ones like the Let The Right One In remake, which would be another one which I felt was creatively bankrupt. Surely Holywood could spend their resources on producing novel content as opposed to spoonfeeding people who dislike substitles. permalink fedilink source parent
