[MENTION=179]Mr. Briggs Inc.[/MENTION] I think you explained the problem quite clearly. I think it's also interesting that you mentioned Texas Chainsaw Massacre because although the characters aren't given any depth, they are treated as real. That might be because of the direction AND the writing. However, in the remake, to me, they feel forced. Personally, and I think you mentioned this, I feel like the director and writers are trying to make me feel bad for the characters by feeding me stock personalties. What's strange is, there is no difference between the teens in TCM or the teens in MBV 3D, but somehow I feel endeared towards the teens in MBV 3D.
