Hated Tropes An adaptation completely botches the original theme and message

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?

Andy Serkis' Animal Farm and dealings with Angel Studios have made me lose respect for him even though he was one of my favorite actors of all time.

You hire the Serkis and you get a clown.

I feel like if I got to know you better we might get along but I'm not really in a place where I have time for forging new friendships right now

u/Thin_Cable4155 10d ago

Hey me neither. Uh oh, did we just become best friends?

u/Budsygus 10d ago

No. I already said I don't have time for that YOU NEVER LISTEN TO ME.

I need some space.

Its too late though. And now we're already in the fallout out period of our friendship. You sure are moving quick for not wanting a best friend.
