IT'S A PLAY

DO WE NOT UNDERSTAND THAT THIS IS A PLAY

A PLAY THAT IS PERFORMED BY VARIOUS PEOPLE EVERY YEAR

I get this-- like, I remember way more about the production of RHPS I saw live than I remember of the movie. That said, bad adaptations of stuff you love always suck, because they never live up to what you loved, plus it makes you look like an idiot, a snob (because who sees live theatre/watches old movies) or both for liking something so shitty.

they should stop making versions of hamlet imo

I think it's because the movie is a different type of experience to the play. A play is an ephemeral thing, it's a slightly different experience every night, it feels more changeable. You interact with a play in a different way to a movie. Movies feel more ... more static. They're the play frozen in amber, in a way? They hold still, to be examined differently. A bad film feels more permanent than a bad run of a play. A play can be breathed life into more times, brought to life by different casts, but films don't have that kind of changeability. Look at any of the remade-ad-nauseam franchises. There's only so long they can hold up, and I think a niche cult classic like RHPS, which is already somewhat specific in time and culture, probably doesn't have even that much flexibility in this format.

I don't know. I just think most people feel like a new remake of a film is a different kettle of fish than a new run or adaptation of a play. There's more of a feel of permanency with the film, of potential mistakes being fossilised and examined forever more. The prospect causes a different sort of reaction.
