False requel

The definition that says a remake with a lot of new content is like a sequel , umm no. It’s more like what Disney enterprise does. Kingdom hearts 1.5 etc. lion Kong 1/2 and not a sequel. And no one else ha even attempted this.

People is really trying to mess up the English Language with faulty definitions trying to be smart and intelligent that words like false requel has to come to life.
