The thing i like most about this video is if you click newest on the comments and scroll down you can pinpoint the exact moment every franchise was killed.

The worst thing is, it isnt a quick death. It's a slow agonizing pain of watching what you once loved turn into a bastardized abomination of its former self.

Reading through the comments is like reading tombstones.

The fact that Back To The Future has only been safe all these years because the creators had to literally sign an agreement with the studio forcing them not to make any more sequels after 3 just shows how commonplace this practice is

They couldn't just end it. Toy Story 5 has just been confirmed. Fuck me.

Rich Evans truly is a prophet this was even before Rise of Skywalker and the GOT final season.

Rich Evans always looks like he's halfway between laughing at his own jokes and terminal existential pain. And I'm here for it.

Futurama being revived AGAIN by Hulu. Just watched the first episode and I want my memory wiped to a point when I didn't know this revival exists.

They each started to die when movies stopped being called sequels and started being called "franchises."

God the list just keeps getting longer doesn't it?

Star Wars, Star Trek, Dr Who, Halo, Warhammer, Batman Arkham, Fallout, etc and etc.

Here's to Cowboy Bebop's Netflix adaptation. I can't wait for more.

[HeJumper]

rest in peace, Kevin Conroy, I'm sorry Suicide Squad was you last performance as Batman...

[kuribayashi]

The laugh at the end is 50% Schadenfreude and 50% Pain.

Halo fans when they see 343 cancel splitscreen, launch forge without a custom browser, and delay co-op and level select again:

Not even Thomas the damn Tank Engine is safe from this.

Mike’s face and tone contain a melancholy that no actor could ever hope to match
