I've seen the original. Pretty good, but it felt like two separate stories duct-taped together. Could have needed more focus.

The ring was great. I caught it as a kid while playing online all night one night...

Jusus I couldn't sleep for ages. The Ring was just so freaky,

Then i watched the american remake. Funny. I slept like a baby...

its more like "circle" than "ring" anyways

btw - i liked the us version of ring better... unlike most ppl. the jap. narration was just sometimes a bit unfocused.
