I now wonder whether if they did a movie based on Raiders Of The Lost Ark, except the protagonist uses an umbrella instead of a whip and actually fails to find the Ark, people would still think it is different and unexpected.
And yes, I am aware that this is a huge hyperbole. Just trying to get the point across.
Wouldn’t it be crazy if they made that movie but in it Indy totally failed and had no impact on the climax
