No conspiracy necessary. The CIA bought the rights to the 1954 film Animal Farm, modified the ending to fit propagandist ends, and it went undiscovered for four decades. The original Top Gun was intended to recover the image of the US Navy after the Vietnam War. Etc etc etc.

yea, I remember reading the book and then watching the movie and it had differences iirc, its available on youtube for free and I remember some comments talking about the different ending.

IIRC, in the movie, the animals finally kick the pigs out and everything. It was a good ending.

but in the book, there was not a good ending, the humans and the pigs were celebrating together and then ended up fighting in between each other

> Twelve voices were shouting in anger, and they were all alike. No question, now, what had happened to the faces of the pigs. The creatures outside looked from pig to man, and from man to pig, and from pig to man again; but already it was impossible to say which was which.

This is the last paragraph I found from the book (had to download it via archive.org to find the last para)

So am I correct or is there more to the story?

Confirmed, that's the last paragraph in my 1996 Signet Classics copy.

So, no conspiracy theory necessary.

It's all straight up conspiracy practice since long, to much cheerful bleating how it isn't.
