Train to Busan Remake Titled 'Last Train to New York' - IGN
Folks online were super heated at the news about the Train to Busan remake.
My philosophy on remakes of foreign films is that the original still exists and no matter how shytty the remake may be it doesn't diminish the original at all.

'Train to Busan' remake sparks outrage as its name is changed to 'Last Train to New York'
According to a report Wednesday by Deadline, the remake by Indonesian director Timo Tjahjanto, in collaboration with producer James Wan and screenwriter Gary Dauberman, could be called Last Train to New York.
The film (which features a star-studded cast including Squid Game's Gong Yoo, Parasite's Choi Woo-shik and Ma Dong-seok from the Marvel film The Eternals) follows a mysterious outbreak that grips the country as a father and his young daughter travel on a train heading to Busan, South Korea's second-most populous city.
The remake's reported title change from that of the original work has sparked debate on Twitter, with some calling the name "boring," "lame" and "tacky," while others showed support for the upcoming remake.
Author Marie Myung-Ok Lee tweeted: "boooring... riding Amtrak to NYC is always a zombie horror show,
where's the surprise and wit of the Korean film ???"
User @leejunqjae tweeted: "last train to new york sounds so lame lmao." The post had nearly 300 likes at the time of reporting.
User @PetePepsi agreed: " 'Last Train To New York' sounds like the title of a really boring broadway musical starring Idina Menzel and at least three other RENT alums."
User @70s90s tweeted: "Last train to New York sounds like a hallmark Christmas movie where the girl boss misses her train back to her corporate job and ends up falling in love with the lumber jack republican."

Just makes me think a zombie apocalypse movie focused in the NYC subway system could slap if it didn't require them to predominantly just ride one train. Track flipping, stops at some iconic locations, a little sprint from Columbus Circle further down town...that ish could work just not as a train to busan redo.
I like her reviews.
Malignant
- references to Dead Silence, Insidiuos
- twist ending
- Red Hues
- body contortion compares to Insiduous

These content creators have the best reactions. Squid Games - feels like you watched it with them off their reacts.

I need to finish this show already.
Nobody is going to choose Amtrak over The Acela when traveling the Northeast Corridor.
Also the reaction to the title from people strikes me as being steeped in cultural ignorance because Busan is the 2nd largest city in South Korea. Over there Busan isn't some exotic sounding destination like it is to Americans.
So they could've called the movie Train to Los Angeles since LA is the 2nd largest city in the US but LA isn't known for its train system like the East Coast cities (especially DC/Philly/NY/Boston) are.
