Okay, two things.

First, that's still not a good enough reason to run around ethno-swapping and gender-swapping established characters for no reason. It didn't matter in the book, and it still doesn't matter- so why do it?

Second, the big issue is apparent in the damn trailers: they took a book that is so fantastically creative that it required technology 50 years beyond its conception and practically threw it all away to write a 109 minute inspirational ad for anyone who ever felt victimized. And as nice a sentiment as that is, What the fuck did they do with the movie I waited 15 years to watch? 

Again, if you don't like it just watch the 2003 version but that one isn't that good either but since they failed twice in making a decent movie out of it I doubt they will try again anytime soon.

No, they failed one at making it and forgot they were making a movie the second time. I want an actual attempt by someone who is going to respect the source material.
