Because I want more things in my life that bring me joy? Seeing something I love from a new perspective sounds like a fun experience?
I'm not saying to not enjoy this, or other things. I'm just saying that people mindlessly consuming any slop that has an IP attached is how we ended up in this situation. There's a lot fewer good and interesting things made, which actually have a hope of being good, because it's so much safer to make slop with existing IP. Even if it's bad (it almost always is, because they're making it purely for profit, not because they care about the IP like you do), it still prints money.
