Sword of Mana is in no way a remake of Secret of Mana, it's a semi-remake of the ORIGNAL Mana game, Seiken Densetsu. In the US it was first released under the name Final Fantasy Adventure, back on the orignal Game Boy.
Know your gaming history, man.:P
I can't speak for how well it did in theaters, since it was just a bit before my time, but very few people I know have ever seen it. Personaly, I find it to be one of the most accurate takes of the Arthurian legand to date, and simply one of the best.
Ah, but there is a major difference between right now and Veitnam (several really, but one in particular). That being the most of those who fight now do it by their own choice. They willingly joined the millitary. In Vietnam, however, a vast percent of the troops were there only do to the fact that if they had refused they would have been put in jail under federal law. You can't really hate somebody too much for being forced into war, as compiared to willingly joining the millitary with full knowledge that you could one day be killing people, and being fine with that.
And if it makes any difference, it might do well for me to mention my father is a 100% disabled Vietnam Vet, who was forced into service.
