    He means the Hollywood remake is much better than the European original.

          Damnit. It's a REMAKE?

          Then I'll make sure to watch the original one. If history teaches us anything is that the European Originals are 10 times better than the Hollywood japanese remakes.
          Thanks.

              For any interested in testing GP's statement, the original is, perhaps fittingly, called "Open your eyes", or "Abre los ojos".

                Didn't know there was an original. I will check it out. Maybe the good thing was seeing the lesser movie first allowed me to enjoy it.

                      This is one of my wife's favourite movies.

                      Should that bother me......?

                        NO. Get her to see the Spanish original. It's better. It has Penelope in the same role as well.

                          So Tom Cruise stole from the Spanish original not only the idea, but also Penelope... What a b@st@rd!

                            Vanilla Sky is about 80% the same as "Abre los ojos" The 20% difference makes the Spanish original better, even if the production values are less.

                            Why not keep Penelope? I would.

                              OK, I don't understand people's fascination with Penelope Cruz although I guess she was preferable to the other psychotic iceberg.

                                Well, I guess, I would like to see the original.

                                Of course. I just meant that Tom Cruise certainly has a good taste, unlike Paiktis.
