      Like that one Marvel movie where the heroes attacked the villains base and one guy immediately noped out because his paycheck is nowhere near big enough to justify fighting against metahuman superpeople.

      That's a pretty hard take that actually isn't true.
      Now if you were to say "MODERN adaptations," then that would be true.
      But so so many "classics" are just remakes and adaptions.
      For instance, people complain about Disney "only making remakes now a days" forgetting that is exactly how they started: by created adaptations of previous work. That's. . .all they've _ever_ done, really.
      For instance, probably one of my favorite ones to point out is that the original Lion King was just an adaptation of Hamlet.
