As I said the only thing one can say "oh, but, well, the invading force this this and that..." when the reactions are for more real in the remake.
Remake Wolverines - presented as more of a terrorist faction by the invading force, they have to kneel, duck, and hide in order to move around the town, they have to remain in the shadows because if they don't they'd get captured. They are trained by an ex-marine, thus showing how they can come to fight back. Not to mention the second military guy. They acquired some major help along the way.
Original Wolverines - they're not really seen as much of a threat by the invading force rather just a nuisance (not as big of a deal was made), they can seemingly walk around the town in clear broad daylight without getting caught, a guard can see them in clear broad daylight without raising any alarms even if things look suspicious, apparently one of the enemy soldiers can flirt with one of the wolverine girls, the enemy in the end lets the brothers go free (this one SERIOUSLY irked me), they're just kids without any proper form of training or being properly trained by someone who knows what they're doing, apparently if you're in a concentration camp run by the enemy you can yell to your sons "avenge me!" without alerting any of the guards. Somehow the kids seem to be equally as trained as the military guy, he is impressed by their plans - which if it's this trial and error they would be dead a long time ago, and he doesn't really seem to train them just play football with them.
While the original was fun and had the more realistic invading force, the remake had the more realistic everything else. I'm not saying the original was a bad film, I enjoyed it - just so many things stuck out like a sore thumb.
I mean, how could the Wolverines so easily walk around the town in broad daylight in front of the soldiers? Wouldn't an invading force become suspicious about freely walking around Americans who they supposedly have a close eye on??? And yet they walked around like nothing happened.
So fans of the original are over-looking all of this just to say "we'd never be invaded by North Korea - therefore bad!"? If it's as simple as the enemy, what enemy who's made it his mission to capturing this group lets two of them freely go with no guarantee that they'll die soon anyways and after they've killed countless of his men? Which would you say is least realistic of an invader a "you can go free" or what faction they're from?
