Okay, I watched it. I watched the trailers to both movies.
I'm thinking it might actually work. (Mind you, I didn't see the original.) It seems different enough in that it's been "transposed" comedically (from "British" humour to "American" humour).
We saw a similar thing happen with The Office. I thought it was dumb that they did an American version, but look how that turned out.
I kinda want to see both films to see how they differ. I remember seeing the original trailer back before its release and wanting to see it, but I never got around to it.
