14. Now you went and did it. - I do not want to be a DebbieDowner.

Here's mine: https://democraticunderground.com/10181595987

That said, my new stuff here:
* Well, reprise this, why re-make almost all the same?

* I get SPIELBERG's reverence. but: It. was. DONE.

* The MUSIC is ALL.

* One of the earliest thoughts was to make the conflict Irish vs Jewish.

* Am gonna SAY it: "Woke" to make it more "authentic" sucks.

* SHAKESPEARE was a RE-MAKER to end all RE-MAKING.
