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?

Too busy sucking his own dick to think.

Damn the sheer narcissism oozing off this is ridiculous

Turned himself into the most rancid Ouroboros with that comment, yikes💀

He might stain the reputation of Dante’s Divine Comedy if he keeps that crap up. And him talking about “rearranging the body” is crazy, you can’t rearrange something you took apart with a chainsaw and then a wood chipper.

We’re witnessing levels of narcissism I didn’t think were possible.

Jesus fucking wept, that's the most narcissistic thing I've ever read.

Bro is glazing himself so hard, I'm pretty sure he just made an entire monotheism religion about himself. Dude is glazing himself so hard, donuts are telling him to chill out. Someone call the Rock, there is a new self glazing king. Adi unironically has such an ego, I wouldn't be shocked if in the center of his house is a golden statue of himself standing over the world with every country reaching up trying to grab him.

I cannot believe we got to witness a competitor to the Rock’s ego. It sounds too absurd to be true, but just… look at it. It’s there and we can’t ignore it now, it’s awful.

I would not be surprised if that statue did exist. Throw in some sort of fountain around it filled with statues of the “haters” that has them so angry they’re crying and their tears fill the fountain since he’s so obsessed with them.

A fountain that has him in a pose that's akin to pissing and it's some liquid gold or something valuable. LIKE, dude is so obsessed with his haters; I'm pretty sure they are living rent-free in his brain. WONDER if it's in his contract? like how the Rock can't lose a fight; Adi's contract makes it so he can't go without mentioning his haters every other day,

u/Yharnam_Hunter25 7d ago

It’s gotta be something with the contract, no way a human being is actual like that, right? Right???

u/Scared-Jacket-6965 7d ago

I don't know, there is people I met who are obsessed with the people who wronged them. BRO is obsessed with his haters.

Yeah, a family member was like that with someone they used to be friends with, we just kept telling them to let it go and try to move on instead of being so miserable and bitter constantly. Whatever Shankar has going on is, like, 1000x worse than the average person.

sad part about people obsessed with Revenge, 99% of the time once they get it, they realize how it was kind of pointless in the end.

Shankar is WAY worst though, Mate lives with his haters in the back of his mind 24/7.

u/Yharnam_Hunter25 6d ago

Yeah, it’s always sad to see people realize that too late.

I really think the guy needs to go to therapy, that level of obsession is not healthy. It’s probably really unbearable to be around.

u/Scared-Jacket-6965 6d ago

SADLY, this will prob never happen. As someone who studies history, let me tell you one thing that is painfully well known: people don't like to admit they have a problem, CAUSE to admit you have a problem is admitting you're wrong; to admit there is something wrong, and humans would rather die than ever admit they are in the wrong.

Hence why Pride is a sin. All the sins are healthy in good amounts; it's when Wrath becomes uncontrollable violence, when Sloth becomes the inability to move, when Greed becomes obsessive, when Gluttony becomes obesity, when Envy becomes destructive, when Lust becomes so powerful you can't stop yourself,

finally, when Pride becomes so powerful, you cannot admit you are addicted or obsessed, or in a bad mentality, because to admit you have a problem is to go against the idea you're perfect. If that doesn't sum up Adi's entire thing, then I don't know what does.

"trigger its purists" dated 2016 talk aside how is upsetting the people who actually care about the source material something to be proud of
