hey...no probs Mr. Palmachine...we're all fans of HG anyway...I know what you mean...for me, I think it's good that HG's writings are still up there for Hollywood consumption...you know the score, unless you did something yourself you'd never be totally happy and there's nearly always "artistic licence" with all that's made (even the original had some of this)but I think as long as the spirit and intent is there then it can't be all that bad and I felt that the new film has some of this and that Simon Wells has given his slant...I personally don't know if better or worse applies - I suppose that's just personal opinion and, like you say, everyone is entitled to that.At least HG Wells' name has been introduced to a new generation of people....and that's nice!!!...All the best...Gaz |
