NO! I cannot enjoy a movie by reading text at the bottom of the screen. We bought this movie(with the box in English) only for a disappointing surprise when it started playing. If I want to read, there are books. I hope the English version is good.

Nahhhh it won't work. There is no point producing a remake after the great performance of Juan Antonio Bayona's direction. Can't we just read subtitles? That is just going to justify the movie in the world-wide public bu being called the “Hollywood” version.

Fessenden had reportedly co-written the script with the ultra-busy Guillermo del Toro (who produced the original and is performing the same duties for the remake), and was tapped to bring the creepy tale to English-speaking audiences who may not have seen (or maybe not even have heard of) the original.

I agree with Lord Garth. Why is it English-speaking people (of which I am one) are so arrogant to believe that good movies can only be made in English?!?

Heck, half of The Godfather II was subtitled in English because it was spoken in Italian. Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.. Life is Beautiful.. Pan’s Labyrinth (another Del Toro movie)….

The list goes on and on of amazing, and popular, movies in languages other than English.
