Yeah, I have chilled so hard on the "They're ruining my childhood!" with remakes and reboots and stuff. It's like... why do I care? At the very worst you'll get a bad movie out of it. But if it's a decent new entry then you have that, or possibly people now being interested in the original that you liked so much.
I made a comparison on the movie board that these aren't erasing over the originals, the original will still be there for you to go back and watch and enjoy anytime you want. This isn't ruining anything. You can just... no interact with the new one at all. I just don't get people's visceral reaction to stuff.
Exactly. I tell the same thing to "passionate" final fantasy fans, 2000s teen titans cartoon fans (ironically enough even this was pretty different from the 70s/80s teen titans cartoon), whatever else. They can't ever take away your memories, or hopefully the 4K UHD blu-ray re-releases, old game ports to modern platforms etc.
Best case scenario the new thing turns out pretty good and you can now like both. That's resident evil 2 for me...liking both.
Worst case scenario you get another George Lucas who tries to alter your old memories for awhile, lol.
