    you'd welcome any attempt by creators to expose them to a wider audience.

Except if it's something completely different it's not what you give a shit about anymore. It's a gross amalgamation of skimmed names and plot. It makes people NOT want to see/know more about "that thing" you like. Whether it's Thundercats or whatever.

I love Merry Melodies and Bugs Bunny Cartoons, but does that mean I'm going to support shudder Loonatics Unleashed?

No. Because it's something different entirely.

It's about the same as most books and the movies made "from" them. Like that one His Dark Materials movie...

Does it? Because we're talking about children and a kid's cartoon.
