I haven't seen the original which is a bit too dated to stomach now. If they do justice to the originall, I'll see it.

How will you know if it does justice to the original if you can't see the original because it's too old?

"too dated to stomach"?? you mean it doesn't have scads of special effects (CG) and
mediocre acting you are unable to watch it?. Just try the original, I think you will
love it...

not so much the lack of good effects, rather than dated concepts/effects.

I'll give it a try though seeing how it is a cult classic and people like to reference it.

OMFG if they change it from trying to end war to trying to end global warming I will be soo fvcking pissed off.

EDIT: woah, its not just a "cult classic", its just a mainstream classic.

The big thing when the first one came out was all about world atomization. Today were all concerned about warming or maybe getting eleventy billion miles to the gallon.

Actually it's really not at all. It's still completely watchable.

If the Earth stood still, wouldn't we all fly out into space?

Dude, your expected to use search to see if your topic already has a thread going,
always been like that here. Due to the large number of members there would be tons of
repeat threads..
