LOL - I'm actually the opposite, now. I used to be more picky about
movies and 'reboots' and such, but now I just see it as 'another take'
or 'another view' or whatever you want to call it.

And I just turned 50 earlier this month. LOL

That's exactly what I'm talking about there... Had a conversation about this
with my youngest son at supper tonight. It's a vision - that's it. No, it
might not align with the 'original vision,' but it doesn't make it 'wrong.'

Like I told him, you don't have to LIKE it, but it doesn't make it 'wrong.'
:-)
