1. I'm conflicted about it

I loved the original, and I've been disappointed by re-makes many times before....

[Bill219]

2. I feel the same way as you...look what they did to Knight Rider

But, I am really looking forward to watching this. All the clips look really good so far

[sailor65]

4. Yeah, they do look pretty good

and I'm sure I'll end up watching it.

[Iggo]

3. I may be in the minority...

...but I thought the original was crap.

The idea was good, but the execution sucked.

I'm looking forward to seeing it done well.

[graywarrior]

6. Same here.

I hated the original.

[HopeHoops]

8. Yeah, not enough sex.

I hate when that happens.

[lunatica]

14. I was disappointed in the original too, although also not in the story

[Sebastian Doyle]

18. "I'm looking forward to seeing it done well."

Then you'll probably be disappointed. This looks like another right wing propaganda piece from ABC/Disney. Not at all faithful to the original story (which was an allegory to the Holocaust). This time is all about spreading fear about aliens who talk about "hope" and "change". Get it?

[SidDithers]

5. Looks good. I'll watch...nt

[TreasonousBastard]

7. After all the hype, I found the original to be..

simply a revenge story. Techno-Conan.

Your hurt feelings and other terrible things are all better if you kill enough bad people.

(Without the body count, I doubt anyone who liked the movie will like the TV show.)

[lunatica]

15. I think it wasn't a movie. It was a mini-series

[TreasonousBastard]

20. Yeah, I was thinking of something else. Never mind.

[Ichingcarpenter]

17. wrong story, wrong movie, wrong graphic novel, wrong TV show..........

But you know that don't you...

[TreasonousBastard]

21. Yes, I confused two things. I suppose that never happened to you.

[Ichingcarpenter]

9. David Icke wrote the screen play and stars as one of the

background props. George W. Bush, Queen Elizabeth II, Kris Kristofferson, and Boxcar Willie are given cameo roles.

[harun]

10. I'll check it out. I liked watching the original as a kid.

[Viking12]

11. Yawn, that's so 1983

[ipfilter]

12. I've often wondered if the original series

caused the strange belief that reptilians have infiltrated the government.

[alfredo]

13. Teenaged boys will like Anna.

[Ichingcarpenter]

16. She's Brazilian and I loved her in the Sci Fi series Firefly

She played the Courtesan

[Iggo]

19. Forty-eight year old boys will like her, too. (n/t)

[DavidDvorkin]

22. 66 year olds, too.

[alfredo]

23. Yeah, but at our age it's hard to figure out why.
