Query: Just as Good as the Original if not Better!

I like both versions a whole lot. Steven Weber really surprised me with his performance here and Rebecca D. was much better than that annoying Shelley Duvall from Kubrick's version. I like how Jack Torrance slowly became obsessed and crazy due to the hotel, whereas, Nicholson was going crazy from almost the start. This version also follows the book nearly perfectly, by having the ghosts more interested in Danny and his powers than just making his father a murderous psycho. I own both versions on DVD, and while the 1980 version is a horror classic, this is the version I prefer to watch to get the meaty story that Kubrick left out.
