Just started watching on Crackle and finished the second episode. I like it so far. Surprised I never watched it until now but I’ve seen references to it in other shows like the Simpsons episode when Homer gets sent to the island for exposing that Flu shots are used for mind control and then there is the pinky and the brain episode

Are you watching the original or remake?
Original. Is the 09 remake any good? That was pre “update for modern audiences” mindset
Yeah it's not too bad - Jim Cavaziel is always good (if you haven't watched Person of Interest I highly recommend that)
It's not "updated for modern audiences". They tried to do something different with the core idea of the original. Two major things that are very different in the remake (trying not to spoil):
Yea. I want to watch it after I watch the original. I was saying it was made before remakes became an excuse to inject modern day crap into it.
Well...they kinda did inject some circa 2009 "modern day crap" into it (OWS type stuff, since all the 2008 stuff had just happened) which wasn't present in the original, but it's not nearly as heavy-handed as you get now.
