Comment on Gargoyles Live-Action Reboot Officially in Works at Disney+
Huxleywaswrite@lemmy.world 8 months agoFranchise, really? Throwing that word around pretty loosley now aren’t we? It was 1 show that ran for three seasons and still has fans after 29 years.
What made it a franchise? Is every cartoon a “franchise” now because there could be merchandise? No, find something actually criticize or fuck off.

It’s now a franchise with it being a show and movie…
Or I could have use a different word like intellectual property, license or whatever terminology that won’t trigger stupid fans.
What I’m criticizing is the scraping of the barrel for stupid live action adaptations to squeeze any money left from dead IPs.
Enjoy a show or franchise and move on. You don’t have to volunteer to get strapped into the nostalgia money sucking machine every time they resurrect a dead horse to flog.

So you should be allowed to throw whatever buzzwords you feel like at it? Fuck off, if you can express actual critique for it fine, but just “boo-hoo I hate franchises” is a useless addition to any discussion about it.

A dense little stan aren’t ya. Intellectual property actually means something. It’s not a buzzword. It’s a legal term.
In terms of other criticism. There is literally nothing released. There is no other aspect available to criticize besides it being another property rehashed to milk fanboys.
No trailers with bad cgi and horrible live action character designs, no promo shots of the actors in horrible costumes, no word on Keith David returning.
You’ll get all that criticism and more from this soulless garbage of a cash grab in time. Just like every other fucking dumb remake.
Now stop defending capitalism, run along and play hide and go fuck your self elsewhere.

Franchise was the word you’re misusing, dumbass. I don’t even care about the show. It could be literally be a reboot of anything, but it’s not a fucking franchise. Words have meanings.
