I’m assuming you’re talking about the live action movie and I would agree. I had such high hopes for it and they (Hollywood) dropped the ball. I think it’s also a lack of understanding the source material and trying to adapt something to have a wider audience and western audience. When you involve those two things you know you’re going to be kind stepping in it. That being said I do think the props and effects done by Weta Workshop really were definitely highlights of that movie. They far exceed the casting and story. I would love to have it redone but Hollywood is gonna Hollywood and at the end of the day they (Hollywood) will shit all over source material if they think it’ll make them a buck.
They'll also shit all over the source material if they think it's beneath them. I'm thinking of the writers for Halo or The Witcher for example.
I still can't believe they tried to cancel Cavil for respecting the source material on Witcher lmao, no wonder people ignored them.
And now he's Henry Warhammer. The gods smile on him us.
