Hi Lauren. Really enjoying your videos. Your enthusiasm is very contagious! I have been a horror movie fan since the age of four(I'm 63 now). I love the original Firestarter,and saw it on the big screen when first released. I spent many Summer nights at the drive-in! Looking forward to more of your great videos!

Sounds good, thanks for checking out the video! 😄

I love the original. And yes, the storyline is what hooked me when I first saw it. And the characters are so rich & intersting as well. After all the chatter I'm hearing about the new one, not really sure I want to watch it. But I know I have to at some point 😩 Back in the day, the lack of resources & CGI pushed all these creators to make the stories & characters be the drive force of a film. Now due to all the technical advancements in filmmaking, most new creators just don't think they need a solid story anymore, they think the CGI spectacles & all the shocking imagery will sell the movie to the audience. When in reality, if the story & characters are not strong enough, all that other stuff just becomes pointless. Anyways, great review! Watching your videos gives me so much joy 😊. I'm very much looking forward to this new original v remake segment. Can't wait for the next one! 😁

You're right - George C. Scott could do no wrong. The Bank Shot, They Might Be Giants, Twelve Angry Men, of course....

Such a fantastic actor!

Hey Lauren, As Stephen King's, (self-proclaimed) "Number 1 Fan", of course the original is preferable. However, to be honest, the original actually was a pale adaptation of the book. (And yes, for us true purists, his books are ALWAYS better than the movies). However, I can admit that some of his movies were actually quite enoyable. (Yet, ""Firestarter" was my least favorite book to movie adaptation.) And yes, to echo some previous comments, " I LOVE your energy!" I am new to your channel, and look forward to many more conversations & reviews! FUN!

It’s true, the book is almost always better than the movie! And thank you, I appreciate that and I’m glad you enjoyed! 😊

I Personally Prefer The Original Over The Remake. I Felt Like The Original Felt More Original & Drew Barrymore Did An Amazing Job Compared To Most Of The Actors & Actresses In The Remake.

Completely agree! 🔥

Taste 🤌🏾

I’m hoping Firestarter gets another remake in the future because the book is great and both adaptations failed.
