Just my opinion.I don't think a person should use a piece of source material if they don't really care about it. It's why I don't like Kubrick's The Shining. As an author, I would be repulsed if somebody who I'm pretty sure not only hasn't read and comprehended the book, but probably hasn't read A book in years tried to adapt something I wrote. His aesthetic is cool, it's just a shame that he's so empty inside and doesn't try to better himself.
