Ironically, although deep down almost everyone knows the remakes are never going to be as good as the originals, they still go see em out of curiosity and fear of missing out. I think it has a bit to do with supply and demand really, as long as those films aren’t profitable, they won’t produce any more remakes. But it’s hard to stop that apparently

This piece is impressive and heart-warming as well. It has given me a different outlook on the role of female in cooking… or should I say it has precisely put into words how I have always felt about women’s role in the kitchen. A lot more people should read this so they can stop underestimating the importance of their daughters, wives, grandmothers’, or of anybody’s, effort when cooking for them. Definitely will cherish food a lot more from now on.

I think a good/decent adaptation should convey the exact feeling that can be felt in the book version, allowing book readers to relieve their original memories in the live-action version and stimulating movie-goers’ curiosity about the book version (i.e. leaving them wonder how the author originally described every scene that eventually became the movie)
