It seems the big weak point, in my view, is the screenwriting. Maybe they have to dumb it down for the average movie goer but I can’t sit through all the drivel when the abandon the original story plot to expound on some goofy, politically correct tangent.
Game of Thrones managed to get past this for HBO. Lord of the Rings managed to keep much of the original storyline, until The Hobbit, anyway.
Since they are alwayhs at a loss for good ideas, someone should film "Taming of the Shrew" with the original script (shortened for time, of course) but staged in the world of Tarzan, right down to the vines and wardrobe. Every #metoo hypocrite would be rendering services just to snag the lead role.
