What are the worst pieces of nostalgia bait in current pop culture?
Description
For the 240th episode of the WhoDatJedi podcast, your hosts -- Aaron Svoboda (@aaronsvoboda.bsky.social), Alfredo Narvaez (@nolafredo.bsky.social) and Dave Gladow (@davegladow.bsky.social) -- tap into the Dark Side and use their anger to talk about their least favorite examples of nostalgia bait in pop culture. Star Wars gets a lot of flack for this in general, but what are some of the actual biggest offenders of this? What sequels/remakes/reboots just plain weren't worth the effort? And what is some nostalgia bait that is horrendously guilty of being nostalgia bait ... but might still be worthwhile?
