Universal has little choice but to change the desig
Then their classic designs can be used in whatever propaganda or filthy fan fiction anyone wants to get published.
This is exactly why this is being done. In the past, Universal used their "homogenized" updated designs in an attempt to do a work around in paying actor estates. Purists like me hated it. Now, they are being more or less "forced" to redesign their monsters due to Public Domain laws. In 2031, Dracula and Frankenstein will be 100 years old. That's 7 years. By 2054, even the Creature will be 100 years old. That's only 30 years.Yeah not a fan of them but I suppose they’re prepared for when the originals start becoming public domain in a few years. Sad stuff like that makes them need to adapt something they nailed the first time.
