…I do not know if anyone else noticed this (or maybe, I am just heard it wrong) that the hero, his family & poorest people live in what they kept calling COOP community?

If I just miss-heard, then go ahead & inform me of my error, enough people prove it to me, than I will delete this & then you should ignore this threadThat was one of the only things I hated about this remake, so much better than the original.

I hate that they painting The COOP community living would be so bad, without any explanation why!

Plus why does everyone, including hero & family, want to get out of The COOP communities?

'Cuz Hollywood, that's why. Those writers usually aren't known for nuance, especially on matters that oppose the status quo. They could've called the buildings "corpo blocks" and it wouldn't have changed the story much.

    So I guess I did hear it right, I hear what you are saying, I am assuming you have watched the movie, I will add on top of that is it is The Rich-Super Rich Economic Classes/Studios’ Owners influence on the people actually making the movie. I was surprised this, & the original, was made by a set of huge studios’ owners, but with Steven King writing the original story the way he wrote it, he usually has strict controls on how his works are made & I guess with these changed times, they want to make the most possible profits.

    You should have watched it first, proof, Plus, it is a really entertaining movie, Though I would love such problems solved without need for violence, like India’s Independence, but then would be Steven King’s story.
