You may wish to add a brief definition of legacy sequel prior to the question in your poll suggestion, such as:
A legacy sequel is usually defined as long-awaited sequel (usually a decade or more) that often switches its focus to a new protagonist while bringing along one or more of the original characters.
This is a more complete definition of legacy sequel, although it may be too long to include in your poll suggestion:
A legacy sequel film is a type of sequel with a few key features:
Time Gap: These sequels often come out many years, sometimes even decades, after the original film.
New Protagonists: Legacy sequels typically introduce new characters as the main protagonists.
Original Cast Returns: While the story focuses on the new characters, the original cast often returns in supporting or mentoring roles.
Homage and Legacy: These films pay tribute to the original movie, referencing its themes, characters, and plot points. It's like a way of honoring the franchise's history while offering a fresh story.
For example, "Top Gun: Maverick" (2022) is a legacy sequel. It features Tom Cruise returning as Maverick, but the story centers on a new generation of fighter pilots facing modern threats.
