Jag har nog aldrig varit direkt orolig för projektet. Men du som oroar dig över den amerikanska remaken på ”Låt den rätte komma in”, läs detta från Io9 där regissören Matt Reeves uttalar sig kring remakes och i synnerhet hans remake på ”Låt den rätte komma in”:
I love John Carpenter’s The Thing, I think the original is really great and before it’s time, really spooky and cool. And the remake is fantastic it’s a great movie.
I think it ultimately comes down to your respect and commitment to the material. I think that when people feel that they don’t, and if I were on the same side I would think the same thing, that there’s a kind of bastardization of the material. And that they just add explosions and one-liners, or do whatever might be ”Americanizing” the story.
In my case, I so responded to the story and it was actually way in advance of when the original film came out here. Then I read the novel and I wrote to the author and I told him that it just so reminded me of my childhood.
Hans svar är långt mycket längre och läsvärt. Ta en titt hos Io9 för Matt Reeves hela utläggning.
