This movie looks like garbage to me but I never got into the first one...it was too long for my attention span as a child. The cinematography looks great but I don't think I will be into the story.

I'll give it a shot though.

It ain't for everyone but IMO it is one of the greatest pieces of sci-fi ever created.

Naaaaaw, man.

I tried to watch it as a kid and could never get into it. I even had the books but couldn't understand them at 10 years old.

Now, that movie is hot fucking garbage. I just finished it last night. Awful is too generous a word for it.

I'm not even going to break it down. It's not worth the time. I forced myself to watch the entire thing and it took me six weeks to finish it. I just kept bailing on it when it insulted my intelligence.

I'm interested to see how and why the powers that be thought a. New adaptation was necessary. So I will pull up the new one on HBO Max.

And I don't want to hear anyone say that it had to do with the times. There are science fiction movies from the 1960's that still hold up.

Like I said it ain't for everyone.

Good movie but I think it needed to be longer because if I had not watched the old movie there would have been things I dont understand, did anyone else notice every scene with Jason Mamoa starts with him and the kid running to hug each other?
