If you are the owner of a 20th century IP there is no reason you should not want to rework it for a new market if your motive is profit. It's not wokeism to make Rohl Dahl readable to zoomers, it's capitalism.

- jimbob45 3y agoRoald Dahl himself didn’t agree with you. He didn’t try to pass off a censored Cinderella as the original version. He wrote his own and published it under his own name. And you know what? His Cinderella was fucking terrible and I’ve been waiting decades to have a platform to point that out. His original IPs are way better than his retellings. Glad to get that off my chest.
