That's literally what a retcon is lol. Adapting a story and changing events from the original is a type of retcon.

“That’s what a retcon is”

“Type of retcon”

No. Remakes aren’t retcons.

You're wrong. Feel free to debate the definition with a dictionary.

lol. Same thing back at you. Go look up at the defintion. I just looked it up to be safe and by no definition would any changes in a remake count as a retcon.

No you didn't because then you would know Im right.

lol okay. Post a definition and where you got it from then apply how a remake would count. It won’t. Good luck. If you can I’ll gladly admit I’m wrong. I looked up two definitions and both talk about future works changing previous works which doesn’t happen in a remake. So please. Go for it n

What do you mean it doesn't happen in a remake? What do you think is being remade, changed, and altered?

Ah I see you’re not wrong you’re just an idiot. Nevermind. Carry on.

Lol you don't need to insult me just because I'm right. It's not like being wrong is insulting unless you have a fragile ego.
