Foundation is my Lord of the Rings, Star Wars, or Dune. When they fucking butchered it, I walked away, and I'll never come back.

As a fellow lover of Asimov, I absolutely felt the same way, and the name of David Goyer will forever be associated in my mind with mediocre arrogance and arrogant mediocrity.
Everything about the ideas and spirit of Asimov was betrayed, with predictably inferior results.
