Why is failure rewarded so much in Hollywood?

The idea of doing a sequel to Robocop 1 is abit strange .. ok Robo2 wasn't great but surely the new Robocop should be 'the real Robocop3' (like Dark Fate Is the 'real T3') as it was R3 that was the bedshitter (of course Halloween2018 did the sequel to only the original but that was due to them jettisoning the sibling plot that came about in H2 - the sequel to H2 was of course done for H7/H20 - the 'real H3')

They shoudv done a sequel instead of the 2014 remake anyway - a 'Robocop 3' with Weller but the same supporting cast (Keaton, Oldman, SLJ)

Yikes. They're doing ANOTHER "ignore all the sequels, THIS movie is the TRUE sequel" pitch for the Robocop franchise now?!

Hollywood is so hypocritical. They get pissed when the FANS refuse to acknowledge one of their installments as canon (for example, I refuse to accept STD is part of the original Star Trek timeline), yet they do it ALL THE TIME and ignore decades of sequels they don't like.
