I feel like in the best case it would have been a catastrophe that somehow manages to fall together in a way that actually works, and in the worst case it would have just been bad to the point of being offensively bad, appealing to neither regular filmgoers whole also pissing off established fans.

... But it also feels like giving a chainsaw to a bear: You know whatever's gonna happen you're not gonna like, but also you kinda want to do it just to see what it is.

Your last analogy made me snort my 3 sleeping partners (human canine and feline) awake.

Also spot on. But I really don't want to see it. But I'm sure I'd be entertained by reading about the result.
