    I much prefer the film version of Forrest Gump over the original novel.

    I prefer the Aerosmith version of Come Together over the Beatles original (although I like The Beatles version too, as well as Michael Jackson's).

    I prefer the VGA CD version of Monkey Island over the original EGA and VGA floppy versions (especially when used with the fan patch that fixes bugs, adds the speech and music from the special editions, and restores the stump joke).

    I prefer the musical remake of Little Shop of Horrors over the low budget cult film, The Little Shop of Horrors (although I prefer the fact that Jack Nicholson's pain loving character had his tooth operated on by Seymour as opposed to the remake where Bill Murray's pain loving character has his tooth operated on by the mad dentist). The musical is even more enjoyable now that the original, dark ending that was used in the Off-Broadway production was restored and the film can now be watched the way its creators intended.

  • So apparently we can also do songs that were covered by other artists. In that case, Metallica's Turn the Page, Bob Seger's original version is great and all, but Metallica adds their own touch to the track and it really enhances it.

    Also, Five Finger Death Punch's version of Bad Company's Bad Company just barely edges out the original for me.

    And lastly, Van Halen's You Really Got Me, this is pretty much the version most people know anyway.

  • Lord of the Rings. Peter Jackson´s version is much better than older one.

  • I agree with everything you just posted there. :)

    Nice counter-arguments. Well, of course SH holds up compared to other bad horror games such as Alone in the Dark(360) And I am still not sur

  • Yep, I've spent a lot of my Childhood with Silent Hill.

  • Heat, remake of: L.A Takedown

    True Lies, remake of: La Totale!

    Wait. Heat was a remake? Wait. True Lies was a remake too?

  • Lol. The posters for L.A. Takedown and Heat even have the same style. :)

    I love Zack Snyder's Dawn of the Dead remake. It's his best film to date and really captures the scope and tension of a world freshly collapsed.

  • Forrest Gump novel was pretty weird.

  • This game is pain in the neck!

  • Well, I mean, obviously the Star Wars remake was far superior to the original.
