Its wild to me. it’s almost like going “Moby Dick is a story about a man trying to catch a whale, but for some reason the author wasted a bunch of time on other stuff. In our remake we’re only gonna show what matters: That bit where the whale drags him under.”

Or really just “we’re gonna cut to the bone and show the only thing that matters: The climax”.
Did this producer grow up watching vines exclusively?

“Avatar is about fighting fire lord ozai, so we’ve cut everything that isn’t the fight”
