HATED the remake. Absolutly hated it. It dropped everything that I liked from the original: The priest was there for what? 30 seconds? While in the original he was a great, important, and most of all VERY well-acted character. George....oh god, George. First of all, Ryan Renolds is an actor I absolutly cant stand. He's OK when he tries to be funny, but in this he just flat out sucked. Second, they lost the absolute best line of the original, George sitting infront of the fire: "Im coming apart!". Chilling line, Brolin's delivery was amazing. Plus, they complely ruined George's character....cause you obviously havnt seen the original, I wont explain HOW it did, but trust me, it did. Finally, like any modern-day horror flick, this felt the need to show you everything. All the ghosts were crappy CGI, as opposed to being left to your imagination, which is always better.

I thought Ryan Renolds did a great job of playing George. Also the CGI ghosts freaked me out, Esp. The first time they showed us the little girl made me hide under my covers! But for me it's a tuff choice of which is better. I liked how the remake told you more about what was going on.
