If anything, this version will be the closest we will ever see to that version. And from what I read, it sounds like Universal released a 'talkie' re-vision of the silent version back in 1930 (which is now also lost). This new version sounds like they're actually trying to make it closer in spirit to Gaston Leroux's original novel and closer to the way the film was seen way back when (regardless of the 3D). The actual film as it exists today is nowhere near the original filmmakers intent - the print currently available on consumer DVDs is missing footage and is FAR removed from what had been shown in theaters in 1925. Oy Gevalt! Considering the history of the Chaney's silent Phantom Of The Opera, I don't mind that somebody is re-imagining it. It won't be like watching a talkie - it will be like watching a butchered silent. Honestly, it no longer looks like it was ever made as a silent film'
