agreed!

Yeah, I kind of love both films.

Same. BOTH are great and both are different pictures. The remake was a slow burn that had me thinking of it for the entire day. I ended up rewatching it the next day.

Agreed, it's an excellent film that is due reappraisal, and a subsequent renaissance.

Suspiria is definitely one of the top 3 remakes of horror movies in my opinion the thing, evil dead, suspiria

tysm & no prob girlie! 💜

tysm i appreciate it!

They’re both a snapshot of their times. Wait 40 years just like you did with the original and you’ll see. Both good, but both definitely a product of their times for better and for worse.

so true!!

You're so right! Where were you when I needed to write essay conclusions in uni? ✨️🤣

the remake is actually incredibly complex beneath its surface, and even the surface level elements are very nuanced. I won't go into it here though, as I'm releasing a youtube deep dive of my own soon. Glad you like both films, same here. Too many people pit them against each other, and many Argento fans were openly hostile to the remake upon first viewing. I think that's calmed down a little now, which is good.

2018 just for the choreography alone is worth the watch.

tysm! ive def thought of doing longer content, just gotta get the editing space required to do it 😅

oh cool does that coincide with the Thin White Duke era?

​@TheeElectricVenus Just after , The Thin White Duke is on Young Americans & Station To Station & the film The Man Who Fell To Earth ( You should see that film if you haven't ! )

Okay cool, def have seen the film & was actually debating to myself recently whether to cover Bowie films

​@TheeElectricVenus I just watched Merry Christmas Mr.Laurence again & its fantastic.

ahhh love that one!

then how can u say it’s the best one 😂

lol yes she is the queen of giving mid 😭

@@TheeElectricVenus it’s the 70s charm

@@zmarzlina no, it's B-Movie stuff. There are plenty of great films from that decade.

tysm! honestly, as an artist myself, I don’t see anything wrong with AI thumbnails or art/imagery, I just wanted to try something new & to also lighten the load of content creation to try and increase my production sorry u don’t like it thanks for watching anyway!

I assumed you were using AI in order to get a little weight off the workload, yes. But anyways, you don't really owed me an explanation... thanks for the response. And the main thing, as I said: really great work comparing and contrasting these two films.

like the first thing I said previously, tysm (thank you so much) , if it sounded like I took offense to your comment, I didn’t ☺️

the comments would suggest otherwise 😂

as a “real” artist myself, i think the issue is more nuanced than that & my use of it is not the problem. sorry that this element is the main takeaway for u tysm for watching anyway!

Audio and visual......we shall agree to disagree. Thx for sharing your opinion

look I’m obsessed with Argento’s version too, but Guadagnino’s holds its own. to each their own tbh

For me both are so original in your narratives and artistically. I Love both.

It's Argento being Argento. Awesome visuals, cool music, and everything else is out of a high school play.

100% agree. The remake is over-long, slow, convoluted, has a boring score and (intentionally) looks all washed out and ugly. Its fans claim it's so "deep" yet are never able to elaborate upon that. Who the f cares if it adds WWII / Nazi themes when it doesn't have anything intelligent or NEW to say. Meanwhile, the original was made almost 50 years ago and there's still not another movie that looks / sounds like it. It remains distinctive. I honestly think the remake is being propped up mostly by Guadagnino stans carried over from CMBYN, just like Rob Zombie fans insisted his Halloween movies were so great when they were straight up trash. Only difference is that the Guadagnino groupies are far more pretentious. lol

@@capkronos00 While the Argento original is classic and iconic for very good reason, I must say (at the risk of coming off as "pretentious" 🙃) that the 2018 film excels the original on many levels, mainly with regard to storytelling, writing, acting, etc. While I love Argento's film for what it is, its sheer goofiness regarding plot and performances (which is often excused as being "stylized") makes it too silly for me to consider it the masterpiece that some claim it to be. I am definitely NOT a Guadagnino fanboy - Suspiria is the only film of his that I've even remotely liked, let alone loved - but his Suspiria manages to create a style and a feel all its own while at the same time connecting the story and its characters not only to the era and environment in which it takes place, but also giving them motivations and resonance that makes the scenario more grounded in reality and relatable on a human level, while somehow giving more weight to the occult aspect at the same time. I really do love both films (the Synapse 4k release of Argento's film is truly a thing of beauty), but Guadagnino's film engages my heart, mind and imagination in a way the original never has. So... agree to disagree, I suppose. It's all comes down to taste and personal opinion. That's why I'm enjoying this in depth analysis of the two films so much, as (thus far, at least) it's giving equal weight and appreciation to both films.

Some remakes are superior

I'm just glad that Carpenter and Cronenberg - to name just two - don't share your opinion. Otherwise, we'd have no 'The Thing' and 'The Fly'.
