I haven't read the book but watched the remake, what's the premise that was dropped from your perspective?

The book ends when no spectacle, his death is completely unremarkable, then we hear a report from the day he dies and it just reads "alls quiet on the western front" because despite the protagonist we've followed this whole time dying, nothing special happened. The book is like a glimpse into one of the forgotten millions upon millions of young men that died for no reason during the war, and the movie, while good, clearly wanted to do their own thing. I think the book would make a great mini series. I would love to see the artillery bombardedment scene take place over a whole episode to drive home how insane they were.
