Akavakaku Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 No, a sequel is when you go into the future from the previous episode. The seasons of Doctor Who are all sequels, while the different storylines of Transformers are all reboots.

flynn58 Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 Although, unless I'm mistaken, it hasn't been confirmed exactly what the upcoming BIONICLE will be. It could very well be a continuation/sequel (instead of a reboot), but one that doesn't require previous knowledge to make it accessible for new fans. Oh yes, because that worked out so well with the Bara Magna "arc". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sir Kohran Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 Definition of Reboot according to the Oxford Dictionary: 'Restart or revive (a process or sequence, especially a series of films or television ' That's a rather poor definition because it fails to explain whether the old story is continued or not (the deciding factor in whether the revival is a reboot or not).

Manterax Prime Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 (edited) Definition of Reboot according to the Oxford Dictionary: 'Restart or revive (a process or sequence, especially a series of films or television 'That's a rather poor definition because it fails to explain whether the old story is continued or not (the deciding factor in whether the revival is a reboot or not).When a reboot does not have any correlation to the original, it's sometimes called a remake. Reboot just happens to be a catch-all term. The new Robocop is a remake. The new Star Trek films are a reboot, even moreso because they have a tie to the prime universe, that tie being Spock.

Chro Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 The way I always see it... if I reboot my computer, I'm not erasing anything, I'm not reverting to factory settings, I'm just starting it up anew. If I remake a computer, I'm creating a completely new one.I know that's not a perfect analogy. It's just how I think of it - mostly because when someone says "reboot" I tend to think of computers. 2 Quote save not only their lives but their spirits Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I started liking Bionicle before it but I found that there was so much information that it was difficult to get into. If they made the Bara-Magna arc better and longer and then decided to connect to the MU with Mata-Nui and all that jazz, it would've been amazing. Bara-Magna decided to be a sequel for one year and then whoops not really haha jk lol.

Wazdakka Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 Are we honestly still debating whether or not a continuation is possible? It's been long since established that a simple summary of all events in Bionicle could be condensed into perhaps one or two sentences, which would then give the starting point for the storyline that continues vaguely off of what was done before.

Makuta Miras Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 I want a continuation. I don't want to see 10 years' worth of story thrown away like a faulty Kanohi. We need King Vultraz. Or Makuta Velika. That is, if "Makuta" becomes a title meaning something like "Bringer of doom" in the future. Plus, although there are loads of loose plot ends, that just means more story for the new Bionicle. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grey Snow Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 Regarding the earlier Teridax conversation, I'd rather just see him called "Makuta" (as a proper name), and make him an individual, not a species. Even then, he doesn't have to be Teridax. Give him the Mask of Shadows, give him a new personality, done. There, he's not Teridax, but he is Makuta. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't want to get too in detail with the leaks but really, at this point it could go either way. There are new villains we've never seen before. This could either be a reboot or a continuation from this evidence. Some characters we've seen before are there, and in a different form than how they were since the serials stopped being produced. There could be an explanation for this, I personally have one, but if I said what I thought I would be discussing leaks..., so this could be either a reboot or a continuation. There is that mask with the electrical stuff, we've never seen it before, it can go either way. There is no such thing as "enough proof" to show it is a reboot. When I say reboot here I mean "disregard all continuity", because that is the definition people are using here for some odd reason... even though it doesn't exactly mean that, it can though, but reboot doesn't strictly mean that. BTW, for some people, 2004 was considered a reboot. For others 2006 was considered a reboot to them. To LEGO and others, 2009 was considered a reboot. So I'm not sure why people call having a reboot as either a retelling or disregarding all continuity.

Lenny7092 Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 (edited) Since there is no doubt that Bionicle is coming back in 2015, I hope that it will continue the story, because there are some things unresolved. And also, I would love to see Bionicle.com back. Oh, yeah! Whoo-Hoo! Man, I missed it so much! It has been four years for Bionicle to come back! Anyway, sorry about this excitement. I was very happy about Bionicle's return. Anyway, I wonder what the new gold mask is and what does it mean, but it does look oddly like a gold Mask of Scavenging with a crown attached on it. Does it mean that Vultraz will come back from the Melding Dimension and become a king or ruler of something some how, or is it the Mask of Creation or some other new mask that we never saw before?

Boidoh Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 You know, it only looks like a Mask of Scavenging because the mask of scavenging, from the picture on BS01, looks oddly flat because of the angle. When I saw it turned at several angles, it looks no where near the same as the gold mask from the BIONICLE 2015 pic. 1 Quote Add me on 3DS: 0516-7750-0068Add me on Wii U: Boidoh "I am Lloyd Garmadon, son of Lord Garmadon." - Lloyd, Episode 4: Never Trust a Snake"I am Lloyd Garmadon, son of Lord Garmadon." - Lloyd, Episode 44: Corridor of EldersLike, Comment, And Subscribe for Nintendo Content - NinBoidoh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The very least you could do is distill the main point into a slightly more readable format. And passive-aggressively whining about how no one's replying to your difficult-to-read post doesn't help matters and just makes you sound like an entitled jerk (gosh, it feels good to be able to say that!). Anyway, your story idea has the same problem as numerous other concepts for a continuation: it relies heavily on an understanding of various ephemera from the original series. As your friend (or you? Don't know which is which in the log) says, he doesn't know much about Xia. That's from a person who WAS a fan back in the day—new fans won't understand who Artakha is (and what his powers are), who Velika is (and why he's evil), et cetera, et cetera. And from a personal perspective, I'm not interested in another "siege" storyline like the one in 2006, and your story sounds an awful lot like one. Attacking a fortress in which everyone is out to kill you is a far worse introduction to a story than one that takes time to introduce the characters in a peaceful setting where who they are and what they stand for can be established more effectively. And that doesn't change whether the story is a reboot or a sequel—no matter which it is, it has to market itself to kids who might not even know what a "Bionicle" is, so either way it has to treat the characters as if they're completely new and let the story build up to higher drama from there. 2 Quote Formerly Lyichir: Rachira of Influence Aanchir's and Meiko's brother Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toa of Gallifrey Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 I'm not sure it confirms a continuation (even though I really, really hope it is one) due to the preliminary nature. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boidoh Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 OMG, the masks look so ugly... Hype Train, drop me off now.

Toa of Gallifrey Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 (edited) I don't think we're supposed to talk about said masks here, but if we can (vaguely), I love all but one.

Boidoh Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 (edited) What if they get different masks? As in, a certain toa doesn't wear the Miru but instead some new mask.

Endless Sea (Alaki Nuva) Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 I personally still hope it's NOT a continuation. A decade of background story would just make it harder to get into. Also, to be honest, I kinda want to see what would happen if they gave the franchise a fresh start. 1 Quote It is not for us to decide the fate of angels.

Makuta Miras Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 Someone needs to make a poll for the reboot vs continuation question. We need to settle this once and for all. Also, I don't like the new Kaukau. The sets... Epic. Awesomeness incarnate. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Endless Sea (Alaki Nuva) Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 Pretty sure that just having a poll in the forums won't settle anything other than letting us know how many people want a reboot or continuation. Also, what's this about a Kaukau and sets? Pretty sure all we know about Bionicle 2015 so far is that one picture of that mask that kinda looks a bit like the Breez helmet.

Boidoh Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 I think bonesiii already did one.

Zidonaro Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 (edited) Also, what's this about a Kaukau and sets? Things happened off-site and we can't talk about it. Also, I am now pretty disappointed. Edited September 14, 2014 by HoloTheWise 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Art Vandelay Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 (edited) So I find it a bit odd that typing "BIONICLE" into the search box on LEGO.com no longer redirects to HF after some site maintenance today. It redirects to Super Heroes key chains now. That makes little sense, but hey, sorta news. Edited September 14, 2014 by XONAR 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nonono, see, that was my way of saying "dude you do realize we can't talk about leaks and stuff right" without actually saying it. I'm kinda weird like that.

fishers64 Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 The way I always see it... if I reboot my computer, I'm not erasing anything, I'm not reverting to factory settings, I'm just starting it up anew. If I remake a computer, I'm creating a completely new one.I know that's not a perfect analogy. It's just how I think of it - mostly because when someone says "reboot" I tend to think of computers. reboot[v. ree-boot; n. ree-boot, ree-boot] IPA SyllablesExamplesverb (used with object)1.to restart (a computer) by loading the operating system; boot again.verb (used without object)2.(of a computer) to be restarted.noun3.an act or instance of restarting a computer. However, people in this topic are thinking of this, probably: http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/ContinuityReboot A Continuity Reboot is the partial or complete elimination of continuity from any and all previous works in a series. You could say it's the creation of an Alternate Universe that shares virtually no canon with the preceding works in a franchise. It's not a Reset Button or Snap Back: while those revert the continuity to a previous state, a Continuity Reboot starts over, providing the authors with a new clean slate to work on. In one form, as far as later works are concerned everything before it is in Canon Discontinuity (to which it sometimes overlaps). Someone needs to make a poll for the reboot vs continuation question. We need to settle this once and for all. Also, I don't like the new Kaukau. The sets... Epic. Awesomeness incarnate.http://www.bzpower.com/board/topic/13955-continuation-vs-reboot/ Enjoy.
