Why don't they actually try to make reboots good?

>>95156967
They try to make something that bother appeals to the general audience AND old fans. But they just end up making a mess.

>>95156967
Anyone making a remake has already proven that they lack the creativity to capture something original.

If they cared about quality they'd make something original instead of rehashing something to pander to nostalgia.

because the concept of a reboot in itself lacks originality and limits the creator's ability to write stories that won't just trigger the fanbase of the OS. hence why we get 'not muh' threads here on a near daily basis.

The girl in OP's pic is HOT!

Reboots are just lazier sequels.

With a sequel you try to come up with an original plot that expands on the successful movie while trying to capture the essence of what drew people to the original.

While a reboot is just giving people the thing they liked before with very little changed. It can be comforting, but even with higher production values it's not going to surpass the thing it's based on.

The only thing worse is a prequel because that's a story you don't care about.

doesn't it kinda depend on the story?

>>95157392
Why?

>>95157464
Most of the time you don't care because the ending is a forgone conclusion, and if there was something interesting to tell there it would have been in the original work. Often when a work is created, though is given to eventual sequels, but it's rare for a work to be created with a prequel in mind.

In many cases they try but that doesn't mean that they will always succeed.

Look at Voltron: Legendary Defender and the new Ducktales reboots. Both could be considered rare successes.

>>95156967
If they cared about what they were making they probably wouldn't be making a reboot.

I agree mostly, although I can see why certain stories don't really fit well in the original story.
