I don't understand why people feel the need to remake and Americanize a brilliant film like "Let the Right One In"--I'm sorry, but I will be skeptical that it can beat the original until I see it. In any case I think it is WAY too soon to be doing a remake!
I do think the new title, "Let Me In" is interesting though, because that is actually what the Spanish title of the original Swedish film is--"Dejame entrar". I guess the Spanish then are snazzier at translating their titles in this case, though I'm not sure how they'll make a distinction between the two movies when the American title is now the same....I actually think the Spanish translation of "Let Me In" has a nicer ring to it!
Also I hope there's a Mooonlight movie, we need one! (Sciwire is wrong when it says the vampire craze came too late to save ML, it was already here, and CBS just didn't care!)
