| 4. Why on earth would anyone remake one of the best & most classic tv series ever? |
|
Are they going to improve upon it?

| 5. They'll screw it up like every other remake. |
|
It will have flashy special effects and mediocre acting and pretend it's better than the original.

| 15. Like the way the SciFi channel fucked up Battlestar Galactica. |
|
Actually, I'm expecting the Prisoner to be little more than a rehash. But not all remakes suck. V2 sucked. The new Star Trek sucked. Steve Martin's Pink Panther probably constitutes an international war crime. But every now and then a remake does the job better.

| 6. From the commercial, the remake appears to be very different from the original - at least |
|
superficially.
1. He wake up in some kind of tunnel/cave type place
2. The village is composed of beach type dwellings.
I couldn't tell if it was filmed in America

| 7. They'll probably get rid of the weather balloon Rovers. |
|
Which is too bad. Those things scared the shit out of me when I was a kid. Very low tech, but effective.

| 11. Wow. I just might have to check this out. |
|
I thought for sure they'd CGI something stupid or just get rid of the Rovers entirely.

| 12. It was done fancier but from far away it undulated like a balloon, as it closed in on #6 |
