    Remaking a movie or retelling a story or changing a political event or casting an unbelievable caste just because it fits today’s politically correct views.

    This thing happened so stop pretending it didn’t or your historical piece is now fantasy or now it’s completely unbelievable.

    Stop remaking movies and changing the tone or message. Here’s a novel idea for you film makers, you can make a new movie with a similar plot but with a different name, now we won’t be going in with raised expectations.

      Right?! Like if youre going for historical use the context! So much historical plots make no sense if you assume they had social safety nets, clean water, workers rights, access to global markets, concept of universal human rights, on demand light and heating, largely managed forests, and don’t get me started on language barriers!
