Kinda felt that way about Del Toro’s Frankenstein. The story is about how monsters are made by the monstrous behavior inflicted on them. By erasing every bad act done by the creature, it’s not remotely the same story

If you want the same story.

Read the same story, don't go see new films and expect replicated experience of a novel or past film.

That's not how new adaptations work.

There’s a line, right? With enough changes, these movies cease to be adaptations. They’re largely original works that are simply using established titles to capitalize on the name recognition.
