When you re-imagine the tale, there will always be arrows of derision ready to take aim and fire off volleys of shots of criticism; tampering with a classic is for some beyond acceptable, the story should be sacrosanct, etched in stone and forever told in a way that respects the past, as much as it pays esteem to our memory of it.
