Episode 33: 47 Ronin
What happens when you take one of Japan's greatest legends, add dragons, witches, demons, giant trolls, and Keanu Reeves... then somehow forget a screenwriter?
This week on I Can Fix Your Movie, we're taking on 47 Ronin, the fantasy epic that had all the ingredients for an unforgettable adventure but ended up feeling like a side quest that never quite reached the final boss.
We dig into what went wrong, from the underdeveloped characters and confusing world-building to the strange decision to sideline the actual 47 ronin in their own movie. Then we do what we do best: tear it apart, rebuild it from the ground up, and pitch the version that should've become a legendary fantasy classic.
Honor will be restored. The script... not so much.
