Is it a legacy sequel if it doesn't have any of the original cast? I just thought that's what that meant.
Well, there are many sequels and “requels” out there that don’t really have any characters in it that from earlier films (this is especially common in the horror genre since it’s not unusual for the heroes to die at the end). So I guess it counts as a sequel if you look at it like that (same basic concept but with a new cast).
But it weirdly seemed to want to distance itself as much as possible from the original. I think the only connective tissue was Dorothy making an appearance, though it’s not clear why Kate had it at the beginning. I guess it doesn’t matter that much but it would have been cool to have something reference to the movie somewhere. I expected at least something like we gif in the movie Predators where there aren’t any actors from the original film but they talk about the events in the movie.
