This Animal Farm does indeed put certain aspects of the book through a proverbial combine harvester.
There is a new protagonist, Lucky the piglet, voiced by Gaten Matarazzo (Dustin in Stranger Things), the allegory is anti-modern autocracies rather than anti-communist, a whole extra third act comes complete with a happy ending, and there are fart jokes.
Andy Serkis off of Lord Of The Rings has properly messed with Animal Farm. I did not realise the 1954 animated one was funded by the CIA, I feel like I should have known that. Maybe this will do for my fun fact for work tomorrow.
Man alive it's hot still. Been out for a walk twice. It's quieter out there, seemed cooler for a bit, but as soon as I get away from the sea breeze I'm sweating again.
