1. No diner scene?!?!! WTF, that was the most memorable scene of the original. This time they only alluded to the killing of the parents and the diner scene was replaced by a pig killing scene.
Oh no! We broke Mom's favorite vase playing basketball in the house!

The diner scene's not in the short story, but neither is the pig-killing scene...
shareI thought the diner scene made it what it as. Same goes for the scene when Isaac is sacrifced and Amos goes into the corn.

Haven't watch the new one yet. Perhaps the film productiion company who made the first one, has a copy right on the diner scene and did not release to the crew that made the remake.
Just an idea.
:( Makes me sad.

Speaking of the missing diner scene, where were the Children of the Corn? The neverending bickering between the two leads completely destroyed the movie for me. I can't believe Stephen King is credited as a writer of the garbage that they called the teleplay for this piece of trash. Disappointing.
shareI was looking forward to that scene 2,apparently the diner scene in the original was cut along with a few others showing the kids killing the adults around town.

I agree. I think that opening with the diner scene in the original is a huge smack in the face for a viewer. It's like, "Bam! This is what this movie is all about!" You know what you're getting right off the bat. You know exactly what the movie is going to be about and that these kids have killed all of the adults. It just adds loads to the story. I know it's not in the short story but I think that's one of the parts that George Goldsmith actually turned out to have added correctly to give more depth and plot to the original.
I need more parts.
