[QUOTE="Celebrim, post: 7705864, member: 4937"] *sigh* And just because you like the movie doesn't mean that the people who made it didn't intentionally set out to make a reboot that reset the story to square one. Likewise, just because you like the movie doesn't mean that the people made the movie didn't intentionally set out to change the stories meaning and themes because they felt - for whatever reason - their take was more mature, or more intellectual, or more nuanced, or more realistic or whatever. It's not like that's an unusual action in a Hollywood screen writer. For example, Peter Jackson openly admitted to as much when making The Lord of the Rings. You can choose to avoid arguing with me, but your still wrong. And my conclusions are based on stronger evidence than yours. It's not even like the idea that it was a retreaded plot that rebooted the series back to square one is a novel observation. Plenty of critics who liked the movie observed as much even a year ago when it came out. Some even liked it for that. [/QUOTE]
