And critiquing a film for not being more like everything we've already seen, and not being more like an entirely different type of film, is the epitome of weak sauce.
"Titanic sucks, maybe I'll remake Star Wars and the Millenium Falcon will crash into the Death Star, Luke Skywalker floats off into space, and the story is told from the POV of a 90 y.o spinster Leia."

Shove your weak sauce up your ass. If I want to see random events happen in no particular order for no particular reason, I can look out the window. That's not what I go to the movies for.
I didn't the hero to win the day - but if the hero's going to get greased, perhaps we should see it.
How about remaking Casablanca, and have Rick get shot by one of Louie's cops, Victor Lazlo killed in a mugging where the assailant takes his money and throws the letters of transit into the garbage with his wallet, and Ilsa runs off with Ferrari. Boy, wouldn't that be artistic!
