To a certain degree it's understandable. Many of the IPs can be secured if the actual owner or licensee is doing something.. anything with the current brand. This is why we had an awful lot of uninspired sequels and prequels for many fan favourite and it looks like we're getting even more. Not that this actual project is looking bad.. time will tell.
