Seeing people question why everyone is so chill with the live action How To Train Your Dragon changing things versus the live action Last Airbender is so funny because like:

1: You can tell the people on live action How To Train Your Dragon do like the animated movies already from the few quotes we do have versus the live action Last Airbender people clearly not have even watched a-lot of the show....if not at all.

2: In the quotes we have about both, the director of live action How To Train Your Dragon just says if people want the animated movies, they still there to watch, versus the dude overseeing the live action Last Airbender straight up implying the animated show was for kids when saying they trying to appeal to fans of the animated show but also for some reason Game of Thrones fans because and I quote, "It couldn't just be for kids."

3: So far the only announced changes for How To Train Your Dragon live action is that it will be its own film and its own interpretation, which is completely fine because the animated films themselves won't completely accurate to the books they were adapting to the point they became their own thing really, so it'll be interesting to see the live action do their own thing as well, maybe even lean more towards the books, versus live action Last Airbender...so far having announced changes that remove character flaws and character development and even plot shit, just because according to live action, its all iffy and needs to be removed apparently.

4: Oh and so far, live action How To Train Your Dragon doesn't have any casting issues versus live action Last Airbender still not addressing the issues that have been raised with Sokka's casting...

Die Hard starring Bruce Willis is one of the most revisited action flicks in the genre’s history, but why is that?

“There are few films in the world that are as endlessly rewatchable as Die Hard. Each December, millions of people sit down (again) and press play on the annual heist at Nakatomi Plaza. But why do we find so much comfort in a 1988 action flick?”

The Stand on CBS All Access, an adaptation of a Stephen King novel of the same name, came at a really bad time.

“Stephen King’s The Stand is a girthy piece of genre literature. The massive story about humanity’s supernatural struggle between good and evil, after a man-made virus called Captain Trips obliterates the majority of the world’s population, has had a huge influence on pop culture.”

Netflix’s Fate: The Winx Saga trailer last week really shows that not all franchises need a dark-gritty reboot.

“Last week, Netflix dropped the first trailer for Fate: The Winx Saga, a live-action adaptation of the popular Italian-American animated series Winx Club. Much to our disappointment, the live-action series contained none of the sparkle or bright colors of its animated predecessor.”
