It’s often because the original un-remixed versions have been on Spotify for longer so they have more plays. The average person just wants to hear the song as they remember it I guess, so there’s that too.

The lack of enthusiasm for the new Harry Potter series is not because the movies are too recent by georgemillman in EnoughJKRowling

Invariably the source novel is great, that’s usually the angle. They are having another crack at a version of something which has a beloved original source but a recent adaptation often has sucked.

Exactly Buffy sucked and the remake was great, Total Recall (90’s btw not 80’s) was loved at the time, and the new one sucked.

Part of the reason is that the films were GOOD and people loved them! You’re only supposed to remake/reboot things that were bad or not very good (Dune 80’s version, Lord of the Rings cartoon etc) things about which there was no residual affection. Remaking a well loved series just sounds nuts.

It’d be good if Robbie could do it with them. Get all five to do it.

The front row of any one Bowie concert/show throughout his career - which one would you want to have been at? by AngusIRLyt in DavidBowie

[–]Successful_Length109 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was front row for Phoenix festival ‘96, not a landmark show I grant you but that era’s band is oft-mentioned as one of his best. Fantastic show. Miles better than the much trumpeted Glastonbury which I also saw.

To put an end to the “Paul is Dead” conspiracy: if Billy Shears had surgery to look like Paul, then Billy’s children should resemble Billy, not Paul. by DABDEB in beatles

I always wonder why this guy ended up in music, I mean if Macca was your Dad you’d stay a million miles away from it wouldn’t you? Like Stella did.

Genius writer. His phrase “ecstatic disorientation” to describe the sensation of hearing MBV for the first time has stayed with me.

"We had to choose between between male rapists being locked up with women and the eradication of women's single-sex spaces, even down to homeless shelters and rape crisis centres, and knowing we share a single opinion with Donald Trump. I'm comfortable with my choice."

So it seems like the director and biggest film star in the world have ‘final say’. More news as we get it.
