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?

Leaving a full ride scholarship for a partial scholarship because "Hawaiians don't know what Marine Biology is." That movie was so racist.

There is no Lilo and Stich (2025) in Ba Sing Sae. Same with no The Last Airbender or Promised Neverland. None of these exist in Ba Sing Sae.

Incidentally, neither does the quote "There is no war in Ba Sing Se." It's a mandela effect
