Deej has a fair point, though I'd say that "serious somber" can be excusable in a movie, regardless of whether it occurs in real life.
The trailer makes it a little bland. It was a charming, simple 80s movie that was fun and had religious subtext out the ass, but the new one makes its modern approach look bland. I'll reserve judgment until I see it (might skip it in the theatres unless I have a date that wants to see it), but I'm a bit pessimistic.
If anything, it makes me want to watch the original.
