Ace Ventura 3 with Sonic Writers for Amazon in development

Eh, Son of Mask sucked but the fact Carrey didn't return does at least go in line with the comics. Stanley doesn't wear the Mask for long and each new story starts with some new person (or group of people) running into it.

Dude, part of why I never got into the whole Texas Chainsaw series is because I legit have NO idea what the f*ck is going on. Every single movie after Part II seems to be a reboot. And there are now a LOT of movies in that series. I dare say it's the most nonsensical movie franchise I've ever seen in my life. Also, the one with Renee Zellwegger may just be the worst movie I've ever seen. She sure was hot as balls in it, though.

And frankly, I don't even like the first one very much. That bitch screaming constantly gets old super fast. My whole life, all I heard was how incredible it was, then I finally bought it and was like... "Eh."

As far as home alone clearly the first two are connected, the third one technically is connected to the first two but just happens to have no connections that I know of but it's been like 20 years since it came out so maybe?. 4 I've never seen but it seems to be a loose sequel, i thought it was a reboot set in modern times but Kevin knows Marv, so I guess it would work better as this is a reboot where this Kevin met this Marv in a similar way but different to the originals. And the fifth movie apparently is also in continuity despite having totally different characters unrelated. I need to watch them all now to see how many connections or contradictions it has.

How about this for continuity? Karate Kid 2010? It's not really a remake but a new story and only the ending is similar. It could technically be in continuity and I'd love to see Jackie Chan and even Jaden Smith in Cobra Kai. Why? Because the movie is called Karate Kid so might as well shove it in there.

nah sliding scale is BS that's only used in comic book superheroes and stuff like the Simpsons. TMNT 2007 like Superman Returns were marketed as ambiguously in continuity, it was never outright stated but danced around with conflicting responses depending on when they were being interviewed. Clearly if either of those movies had gotten more sequels they would've retconned the original movies. Not too disimilar to how The Incredible Hulk used vague continuity with the original Hulk movie so it was a "sequel" in a way, but it would never be counted as part of the MCU now.

And because they've traveled in the future, beyond time of T3. And unless John Connor returns back to 2003 at some point and becomes a hobo, I don't see how it can work out.

It was not supposed to be called Karate Kid. It was named like that for marketing reasons.
So it might disregarded completely.

Karate Kid, a film about a kid learning... KUNG FU. The perfect proof that cinema is all about marketing.

The Cobra Kai people have already said the Jaden Smith movie only exists in that universe in the sense that if Johnny or Daniel were to rent a movie called "The Karate Kid," it would be that movie.
