I regret to inform you that Mel Gibson has been a better director

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apocalypto

Might have been (more) loyal to the original had Nolan dubbed it into Greek or went with Victorian dialogue?

Note: Emily Wilson (TFA) wrote the "modern prose" cover that Nolan adapted. Maybe she's feeling responsible..

Apocalypto was all Mayan so Gibson's job was a bit easier

A lot easier actually, writing a plot from scratch is very different from adapting an existing one.

[Gud]

Why would that be easier?

Have a look what happened to GoT when they ran out of original material.

Emily Watson about the movie: "I would be ashamed to have written any part of this script.”
