Ever had something you really liked? Ya know really liked. So much so that if it were a girl you would go on a date and try to propose in the superdome only to have her run away in fear making you the most awkward depressed man in the whole world? I know I have. Movies, games, even a book, or two I just really like. And it?s all happy days.
Until you hear news of a sequel. You?re like Whaaa? That book can?t have a sequel the whole cast died in a fiery yet tear felt explosion that capped off as the greatest metaphor for global warming ever. Oh and this sequel. This dumb crumb decided to be made without any of the original creators involved or even thought about why the original was good they just said, ?Duhh Secret of the NIMH will be great if we could re-create it with CGI used in Alvin and the chipmunks.? You hope you pray it will be decent even the ads look kinda good.
Then release. Madness ensues. As you release that, your favorite movie/book/game has been canonically connected with utter garbage masquerading as the official remake sequel. After years of drinking and bumbling through the streets of California, you finally realize that the story wasn?t very bad by itself. If only it didn?t make the bad idea of connecting itself with something previously existing. Thus the phrase anti continuity a story that connections itself to a previous story only to its chagrin as association demotes its quality.
So I thought about this and I thought it would be cool for once to de condemn the stories we hate for those reasons and kinda list and discuss which movies would actually be pretty decent to very watchable.
And maybe. When it?s all over, we can love again.
Notice: Any grammar mistakes are on accident and hopefully will not deter your reading. If this topic has been done before I will remove, you?ll just make me very sad. If there is a TV trope that captures this idea that?s fine. It will just count for this thread. I'm really surprised that people are confused. That makes me confused.
Okay okay. Because people may not understand what I'm saying I'll make it really simple. Which movies/books/games etc do you think would be fine if they weren't a sequal or spinoff of something?
