and as for saying that a harry potter director would direct the remake and 'ruin the nostalgia'? I WOULD NOT HAVE A HARRY POTTER DIRECTION IN MIND!!!! SUSIRON, CAN'T U C THAT I'M TRYING TO FOCUS ON KEEPING THE HEART, EMOTIONS AND TRUTHFULNESS OF THE SOURCE MATERIAL AND CHARACTERS INTACT WHILST TRYING TO MAKE THE REMAKE APPEAL TO A NEW AUDIENCE WITHOUT RESORTING TO HAVE TO 'WATER DOWN' THE DARKER ELEMENTS AND MAKE THE RABBITS LOOK LIKE CUTESY CARTOONS? AS A BRIT, I'M HAPPY THAT SOME OF OUR SOURCE MATERIALS FOR YOUNGER TEENAGERS ACTUALLY TRY TO FOCUS MORE ON DRAMA AND REALISTIC SITUATIONS THAN ON HORRIBLE, CUTESY, TWEENAGE CRAP THAT IS SPEWED OUT BY NICKELODEON, CARTOON NETWORK AND THE WALT DISNEY COMPANY!!!! SO IF U THINK I'M TRYING TO FOCUS ON PRESENTATION AND STYLE OF THE REMAKE HERE (CGI OR NOT!) INSTEAD OF THE NOVEL'S TRUE EMOTIVE CORE AND REPRESENTATION OF ITS CHARACTERS AND DRAMA, THEN U...R...WRONG!!!!!!!!!
Thank you for giving me a laugh. I said: Go BUG the Harry Potter director, meaning, that thej Harry Potter movies are FAR worse.
Oooooh- caps now? Is someone trying to make a point that calm words cannot?
Actually, I cannot believe that. The movie was a huge chunk of my childhood. It was a masterpiece, and should not be written over.
And what does being british have to do with anything? I don't think you understand anything there, really. The only real feeling comes from the original, there is no way to remake it without destroying the former. All the emotions come from the first link one makes with something, any mark afterwards is strange and twisted. U, R? I believe that this is English, not chatspeak.

Susiron is constantly criticising me because i put up a UK petition asking for a watership down remake: she is assuming that i'm focusing more on presentation than on substance with this remake when i'm not. And as for her saying that the movie was completely truthful to the novel, then how about a list of differences between the novel and film?: 1.) Hazel and Fiver talk to the Threarah during the evening/night after Fiver wakes up from a nightmare in the book. They talk to him immediately after Fiver sees the field 'covered in blood' in the film: INACCURATE!!! 2.) Captain Holly escapes by himself from Sandleford and escapes from Efrafa on his journey to Watership Down in the film: INACCURATE!!! 3.) The hutch rabbits don't escape in the film: INACCURATE!!! 4.) I will end on this difference: BLACKAVAR IS NOT KILLED IN THE BOOK!!!
Do I care about inaccuracy? No. That is what I've been trying to tell you. Sure, there are flaws in it, but I could care less. If the book and movie coincided, then the book would lose its amazing quality. Besides, I choose nostaliga over accuracry any day.
vitaegigest, you seem to only care about simple things that are unimportant. The hutch rabbits not escaping in the movie was easier for people that did not read the book to understand-- little kids don't understand that males will fight for mating rights with only two females, tehy would see the problem as solved and wonder why teh movie was still continuing. You're arguing over time placement? I laugh at this-- when is ANYTHING time related right in a movie? Bluebell, while enjoyable, was a comic relief character. Thusly, unneeded. And, again, it would have added too much to the story which was meant to entertain little kids. That is the only part really worth being angry about over in the movie. I believe the reason for that was to even out the odds and make it seem more of a war.
I really don't care that the movie left out such things. The onyl way to get a movie to match the book is to have a seven+ hour movie that, due to being exact to the book, makes the book lose its quality. Movies will never match the books, and the nostalgia of a wrong movie beats the overdone feel of an exact one. The Watership Down movie was VERY exact as far as movies go, matetr of fact.
I have said it before and I will say it again: Go bug the Harry Potter characters.
