  1. Hollywood's disdain for canon is as old as Hollywood. Movie making is a separate art form. I'm over 50, and Hollywood has ALWAYS butchered the source material to produce a movie that it thinks is more likely to sell more tickets. I've always been a big reader, and so I've known for a long time that the movie's connection to the source material has always been tenuous. I've always found the movie experience much better when I didn't know the canon. Hollywood has always aimed at the much larger population that hasn't read the book. That's why I take the Fandom Menace with a lot of salt. What I like about the Fandom Menace is their legitimate critiques of the social messaging they shoe-horn into their art. Artists have always done that, and when they're forward-thinking, it's marvelous. When they're dogmatic ideologues or religionists, it's dross. At least in the Christian programming, they're up front about what they're pushing.
