Successful or not as the name suggests every remake is different from the original...no matter how meticulously…
The episodes being 2 hours long is a really big problem for me, too. Still seeing those drama as a whole they are much, much, much better compared to the Turkish remake of Boys over Flowers. Turkey really improved in producing remakes.
I never finish a Turkish drama, btw, cause they are tooooo long.
I don't know if this only happens to me... but I've watched couple of dramas/movies that were remakes,…
See it is always about how we approach a remake. As long as we see it as a different story and don't start with thoughts like 'It will never beat the original' we can enjoy the watch.
I like it if the remake sticks to the original plot, but adds some extra new cultural aspects.
It is all a matter of preference.
And thank you. :D
