In all fairness: there is a difference between the original creator coming up with his/her own beloved continuation of a beloved project, and a soulless money grab by leveraging name recognition with an existing fan base. Irrespective of who is doing the soulless money grabbing (corporation, original creator, etc).

Return to Monkey Island comes across like the former (so far), various Trek and Wars continue-spinning-off-quels more like the latter.

True. Difficult comparison when the original creators are no longer around to create. Was just referring to strong fan positions.
