Ok how the hell did Ringu have less suspense?
The whole film was built on suspense. The Ring relied alot on "looking good" in order to draw you in.
That's Hollywood for you, they should leave well enough alone.
Another thing, there is no actual physical ring ffs. In the ring that symbolised it twice, the top of the well and they flashed a ring on the screen.
GAH HOLLYWOOD FUCK OFF.
As for Japanese culture translating I guess it depends on what you are into. I mean, if you've never seen anime or other Japanese films before then it may not. Personally I didnt even notice.
