<nerd> They didn't remake the movie. They made a new adaptation of the book.</nerd>

I think everyone is watching it - I'm getting the buffering problems on that show.

I was a young teen when that came out. I remembered very little, except it was disturbing as hell! I watched all 3 Hulu episodes today. I think the basic benefit is 10 hours of character development versus 2 hours.

Yes - watched all three episodes today and can't wait for more! Really loving it, and I usually don't like film versions of books I've loved.

the first 3 episodes were released, then they will be doing one a week. I started this afternoon and I'm through all 3 already. I couldn't stop watching.
