You guys really ought to spend some time in the Transformers fandom. Their different continuity families exist quite happily without anyone insisting the original continuity has been "erased."

POW!!!!!
Plus, by asserting that they have same themes and elements you reinforce the notion that this reboot is useless.By that criteria, a sequel would also be useless. That's what GBII is always knocked for, being a rehash. And I certainly don't agree with that.
A spiritual successor doesn't expand upon the old movies like Roger (and me) wants.Doesn't mean the original movies were ignored or disrespected. In this case, quite the opposite. There's more than one way to incorporate and acknowledge the original material. Just because it's not the way you want, doesn't mean it's wrong.
