In an era where every piece of content is algorithmically shoved down our throats, the idea that a fully finished, high-budget (for a streaming movie) sequel could just vanish is intoxicating. It’s a rebellion against the streaming economy. It is a ghost story for people who love hot cocoa and cheesy romance.
