I reject the entire premise that they are "retroactively ruining" anything. The original Stars Wars trilogy is still incredible despite the garbage that came after. Pepe the Frog is ours despite his creator being a massive faggot. Joker references still resonate despite the awful sequel that nobody watched. The art stands for itself. It's only "ruined" if you let it be.
It's not the bad sequels made with simple incompetence that retroactively ruined the previous works, it's the revelation of how much the actors hate us that made the original series cringe to watch, especially if the sequels have people from the older series involved. The original trilogy is ruined because Mark hamil was in it. Star trek tng is ruined because Patrick Stewart was in it. Joker would have been ruined if Joaquin Phoenix was mouthing off tds all the time. The actors and directors are part of the brands' image even when they are off the stage. Games are less susceptible to this because they are made by coders nobody knew, who are expected to leave the company after 10 to 15 years, people who made the original games usually have nothing to do with the sequels, and until recently they don't mouth off about their customers
The original trilogy is ruined because Mark hamil was in it. Star trek tng is ruined because Patrick Stewart was in it.
Don't know if I'd go that far but the politics did affect me. Picard used to be my favorite captain, but I now realize that Kirk was always the most based one.

I always liked kirk ..but ....it's programmed globalism or so via Coopers breakdown
Oh I didn't say they did it. I said that was the intent behind all this effort they put in. They're certainly trying to taint the original with this.
