I'd much rather watch a movie that's not claiming to be original, like Aladdin (2019), than a movie that's trying to sell itself as a fresh twist on old material but is totally paint-by-numbers, like Maleficent (2014.) (I'm sorry if you feel that's one of the movies that gets an undeserved bad rap, mm1991.) The idea of retelling a famous story with the roles of hero and villain reversed had already been done to death before that movie was made and I could see every major plot point/twist on Sleeping Beauty coming from miles away. It's like they typed "a revisionist feminist but also marketable telling of Disney's Sleeping Beauty in which Maleficent is the protagonist" into a computer program and got the script.
By contrast, a movie like Aladdin doesn't claim to be original and I respect it for that in a weird way. And when it does do something different from its source material, it actually does stand out as surprising and interesting because the audience hasn't been conditioned to expect major twists.
