Second post for an opposite opinion: I think I understand what most of the folks in this thread are arguing against. Damon Lindelof has an article about how he might try to write a movie about John Henry, and how it would be adapted across various drafts of the script. He'd start it as a relatively low-key story, with John Henry and the inventor of the steam hammer as former friends driven apart by differing views, and over about three drafts, it would turn into a superhero movie, because that's what happens when executives make changes to try to appeal to a wider audience. I think that if you try to change the kind of story you're telling to appeal to a wider audience, you risk no longer having anything meaningful or interesting to say.
