The reason why Wagner's so dramatic and heavy is because of the themes he was dealing with in his music. Old Nordic and European legends and epic tales, etc. It's supposed to be dramatic. Equally this applies to his operas. Operas are supposed to be dramatic works of art.

Back on topic, the only thing Hitler's admiration of Wagner proves is that, despite his infamy as the leader of Nazi-Germany, he had great taste in music.
