Reseting the existing timeline doesn’t mean it’s a new product or a new story. It’s the same franchise still.
Yes. But it’s not. It’s another sequel. (Prequel is still a continuation of a franchise)
So many shows and movies could have been new standalone stories but have a brand tacked on because of sales and marketing bull.
Lol I agree with you somewhat, but I think you're too lost in the sauce here. There are plenty of egregious examples of Hollywood and movie studios doing what you dislike (Batman rings some bells...), but this ain't it chief.
