"Who cares?" is yet another dodge like the dodging of my question of how this is worse than actually altering the film. If The Karate Kid can get a whole TV series made a quarter century after the original franchise came to an end, E.T.'s legacy can and will survive a 3-minute commercial epilogue. By the standard of that non-argument, why do we need movies at all since you can't eat them, live in them, or wear them as clothes? I addressed your points, you rejected them outright. This sense of outrage is overblown.
And it's not like this is the most egregious reboot committed by any division of this company. Not by a long shot. This isn't even in the vicinity of that distinction.
Goalposts? What goalposts?
I'm glad you feel you've won the arguments you've committed against yourself!
"How is this worse than actually altering the movie itself?"
"I never said that."
"YOU'RE DODGING AND MOVING GOALPOSTS! ANSWER!!!"
