Episode 111 - Reboot/Franchise Titles Pt. 2
One of my earliest entries was a rant about reboots that have the same titles as the original, which causes confusion. This grinds my gears so much that it demands a revisit. I hate when they give reboots or continuations in a franchise the exact same title as the original. It grinds my gears so much that it burns my bacon, sizzles my sausage, steams my hams, bakes my beans, fries my flapjacks, boils my blood, and censors my clop. What the f*cking hell, dude? Why can't they give things a unique or numbered title?!
Everyone calls the God of War game on PS4 GOW 4. Makes sense. But that's not really the title. Nope. The title is actually just God of War. And a new Scream movie came out this year. Guess what it's called? Yup. Scream. What else? Now, once again, we have to call it New Scream, or Scream 2022 in order to know what they hell we're talking about. WHY?! Why the hell do they do this?! Why does anyone think this is a good idea?! Why can't they just call it Scream 6 or 7 or whatever the hell number movie it is?!! Or some other unique subtitle! Anything to differentiate it!
I HATE THIS SOOO MUUUUUCH!!!!
Oh, and how about this little doozy: just the other day I saw a little blurb about Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II, saying it was coming out soon and available for pre-order. I thought I was going f*cking insane. Call me crazy, but I could have sworn that COD:MWF2 came out quite awhile ago. Right? RIIIIGHT?!
Remember this?!
Yeah. YEAH. That's right. That's F*CKING RIGHT. I know you do. But what happens when you search for MWF2 now? Half the results are now...
THIS.
...
What.
THE.
ASS.
I mean, seriously, why? Just WHY?! Can somebody please explain it to me? I'm not being facetious or rhetorical. I mean, literally, can somebody please tell me why they just punk their own names from the past like this? I would give f*cking anything to be able to sit down with a bigwig CEO from a huge game dev or movie studio for just one f*cking minute and ask them to explain why in the name of Zeus's butthole they recycle names of previous titles. My sweet f*cking Celestia, I just can't even describe how much this enrages me. You have to stick a year after every single title now in order to find what you want or to have anybody know what you're talking about.
This trend is ludicrous, ass-f*cking...
*huge inhale*
BULLSH***********T!!!!
And that, my little ponies, is what grinds my gears.
