*Audio Description Available*Death was supposed to be the end, but for Laufey (Faye), warrior and wife to Kratos, a new adventure is just beginning. Santa Mo...
They understand, but they also understand that when they need to make something new, and the old classic already had a complete story, their best chance to make money is off of something familiar. So not Tom Bombadil, but that’s how we ended up with Solo: A Star Wars Story and every Terminator after 2.
Even Terminator 2 changed the time travel rules established in the first movie, but at least it felt like its ideas were still original. And I didn’t even mind Terminator 3.
THANK YOU, I always feel I’m the only one who acknowledges that. Don’t get me wrong, I like T2, but it completely broke what was established in T1. I do understand why, you can only do that twist once, after the audience knows time is a loop you can’t add meaningful stories because there are no stakes. But it’s still annoying, that they undid one of the major things of the first movie.

They could move the story forward with Atreus as the main character, that would still be familiar enough. Prequels are very hard to do right.
Terminator is a special case, because time travel limits the interesting time span for the story if you don’t keep erasing the previous movies plot.
