    The original is also made better by the more serious tone it takes despite being a “family” movie. I feel it straddled that line better than other movies that try to do similar.

    And the 2nd movie was made better by them basically lampooning themselves while still telling a coherent story.

      True that was kind of a hallmark of the Spielberg movies of that time, or in general, too bad the messages of all those movies apparently rang totally hollow lol. Anyways, there’s a lot they could do with this, but Hollywoods track record for bringing stuff back after so long is really not good. Although I did enjoy the new Naked Gun movie but that feels a lot less difficult to screw up.
