I ' d vastly prefer more original content , but Hollywood doesn ' t a give fuck . Hollywood cares about sales like and this shit sells . There is no point in whining that we shouldn ' t be rebooting everything . I agree , but we are going to do it anyways , so get over it . Why not make a Lost in Space that is a new story in the same universe ? Because they don ' t give a fuck about your apparent desire for artistic purity and want to sell tickets , and a straight reboot is totally going to slam that nostalgia button . It isn ' t an evil feminist plot to feminist you with gender swapped roles . It is a calculated attempt to extra money from your wallet . These reboots in particular are pure money grabs because it is a studio commissioning a writer to write this crap , rather than them finding a compelling script . Not an evil feminist plot to gender bend your favorite memories , just a boring old cash grab . Why not keep these reboots true to the original ? Again , money . Keeping it true to the original will make less money than taking a new spin . No one wants to see a corny ass 1960 ' s remake . They want a touch of nostalgia , and then some new and interesting twist . The market isn ' t nerds who want to see their old beloved show with a new coat of paint . The market is those people , plus the entire mass market that has no clue what the original Lost and Space was . They are not selling it just to people that remember the original , but to everyone . That means you gut the IP and shove in a modern tale . Weep your tears and get over it . Your beloved classics are going to be remade , and sometimes a character is going to have their race or gender changed . Stop freaking out and just get over it . The remakes are not going to pass your purity tests . They are not going to be true to the originals , especially when the original was campy shit that is essentially unwatchable to a modern audience . Changing someone ' s gender or race or whatever isn ' t a personal attack on you . It is just a change that some writer made for one bland reason or another . Yes , the purity of the story is ruined forever . Get over it .
