I think I have the other one on my Ziplist, but I haven't seen it yet. It's on my list for the Michael Fassbender factor, I think. It looks like it might also be up on YouTube, though. I may have to watch for academic purposes. I love comparing interpretations of characters.
I find things that aren't based on the original stories tend not to be as strong. You can update them all you want and make it work for modern audiences, but I think you need the framework of the stories for it to really work. It's what makes the new series work, I think. The threads to the original stories are there, as well as lots of interesting new ideas.
