I don't know how AMC could've even dreamed that they could improve on the original.
EDIT: Found some cool clips on YouTube!

Oh man, more worthless sh*t. Just watchin' it now & I'm gone. Even McKellen couldn't save it.
What lack of vision/creativity/homage.
Be seeing you.

Oh well, it served its economic purpose, I guess. I must now purchase the original on DVD to clear my mind of this mess.
I am a prisoner.

They tried to make "6" an everyman.
*FAIL*
Wide-eyed disbelief sucks in an agent.
And the Village sucks.
