[QUOTE="hard_r, post: 1422031, member: 9837"] Interesting fact: The Coen's have never even seen True Grit (1969) All they did was adapt a book that they felt fit their style. I loved it. I loved the book. I loved the first adaptation. But this is not a remake and shouldn't be compared with the old movie. And for those "Wayne IS Rooster" people: Rooster was a character before John Wayne was cast. It was a book first. The first version of A Christmas Carol was in 1903. If they had never adapted that book again, how many of us would honestly know that story? And is the 2009 Jim Carrey version a "remake" of the 1903 silent short? Was Batman (1989) a remake of Batman: The Movie (1966)? And was that a remake of Batman and Robin (1949) and was that a remake of Batman (1943)? No. they are just based on the same source material.
