For my third year of Uni I have to write an essay. For my Dissertation I'm writing about US remakes of UK shows. Why do they remake them? Do Americans relate to UK shows, if not, is this why they're remade? etc. Do Americans understand British humor?
Also, The Hollywood Stamp. There are so many British books being made into VERY Hollywood films (The Golden Compass...changed the name!!! Why?!) Why is Hollywood trying to imitate "British", well fake British...
Anyway, this might not make much sense...but I'm at the beginning of my research...
What I'd like people to do is have a rant about these questions. If you're American and find this offensive, why? Or you're American and are fed up of these films/TV shows. Or British and hate or love these remakes.
Rant away people! Anything and everything will be good ^^
Boosk.
