An adaptation completely botches the original theme and message

[u/Morr4Seiya]

Mulan(2020)-They give Mulan superpowers which is not only lame it goes against the message of the original about equality and struggle,plus they removes Shang because apparently having Mulan date her superior was "problematic" even though Shang genuienely respected Mulan and their rank was never brought up

I am Legend(2007)-You know why the story is called "I am legend"? SPOILER ALERT the protagonist is the actual monster,humanity is gone and the vampires have a actual society and the protagonist kills and terrorize them

Animal Farm(2026)-On the very slim chance that Andy Serkis ever sees this,here's the thing Andy,Animal Farm was not a children work it was not supposed to have a happy ending,you never heard of cautionary tales before?

All the evidence I hear is that Shankar was involved in producing Castlevania, but didn't contribute to the storytelling.

Yeah, seems like he and his circle have been retroactively trying to make it seem like he was part of the creative team for Castlevania. It’s easier for them now after Warren Ellis’ own controversies.

He was one of six executive producers, a group that included Warren Ellis. Who knows how much he contributed on his own, but it feels like what he did contribute has gone to his head.
