Probs because they are usually outsourced for cheap with little direction from the main studio, “as long as its good enough”. And/or the main studio has completely changed since the original and they just dont have the same respect for it.
It’s weird when applied to other mediums, nobody is out there repainting the Mona Lisa in a modern art style then marketing it as the “new” Mona Lisa and going as far as to replace the original with it.
The closest parallel I can think of would be remake/remasters in film but even then you’d be hard pressed to not start an argument with Star Wars nerds over mention of the remasters.
Agreed.
