Hm, that’s interesting. That could be awesome. And although I loved the idea of a remake, it seems right to have fun with it and diverge from the original a bit.
See also Scott Pilgrim Takes Off, in which time fuckery-duckery is involved to tell a different story with the same characters. I rather liked it, but I guess I was in the mood for something different from seeing a rehash of the comic or movie.
