At this point i really just want the remake out to judge it for myself. Will i like it more or less? Who knows till i try it. I will think most of us will like some characters less and some instead much more than before but we really need to see how the sex scenes, the characterisations and the plot developments hold up compared to the original for us all to decide if the remake was even worth it in the first place though i'm sure if it is indeed far easier for him to create scenes without the issues that came with the sheer size of some of the characters then it'll pay off long term for fans of the newer version.
