"I think it's a core story that they'll appreciate. But of course it's got to be told in a broad enough way, in a contemporary way, in an action-oriented way, to allow for all audiences to enjoy it as a big summer movie. And I think the fans appreciate that as well, because if you're a fan of something and you've grown up on something, there's nothing better than having a great movie that other people enjoy."
This is the part that stood out most to me. And it's why things get reworked. They have to reach a broader audience, not just the core fanbase.
The part he's wrong about is the "And I think the fans appreciate that as well, because if you're a fan of something and you've grown up on something, there's nothing better than having a great movie that other people enjoy". He's offbase there. As we know from all the negative-comments here at the Tank, the fans don't like when what they grew up with gets changed so can share with others.
Me personally, I'm fine with it. I understand that things neew to grow/change/develop and adapt for new fans/different times/broader appeal.
