Let it die already!
Ringu was fun... Ringu 2 was okay... Ringu 0 was pointless... "The Ring" was the worst adaption I've seen in my whole life (which already managed to turn the trilogy in a single film), and now they're shooting "The Ring II"!? Are we really out of ideas? What next!?
The best thing about Ringu was its slow pace, building up to a climax that, despite of not being scary, did make you want to save the poor lad. The film was just fun (nothing marvellous), but it had a nice plot that kept you interesed throughout the film. "The Ring" is tense every single minute, to the point you can't actually find things scary because they're always trying to outdo whatever happened in the previous scene. Not to mention a sudden need of ruthlessness (why is everyone pissed at everyone else since the beginning?). Even the cute note, which says something childish like "Mom is chubby, Dad is chuby, so I'm chubby" in the Japanese version becomes "I found out my fucking husband is fucking his fucking secretary, the fucking ******". What for!? Compared to Sadako, the character from the American version is barely a trainee. Heck, when I had Sadako as my avatar I had to change it in the very same day because of the people who begged me to take it out.
edit: I'm sleepy and corrected some things
