This analysis examines several recent reimagined science fiction
franchises (Star Trek, Battlestar Galactica, V, and Star Wars) in
order to capture how ""reboots"" work from a fan perspective.
Previous encounters with these stories make the reboot experience
distinct for fan-viewers, who bring with them a set of expectations
and knowledge, often tied to franchise canon, that cannot be
separated from the new film or television series. Even when
elements of the original versions are maintained, memories of them
influence the narrative encounter. This book considers reimagined
texts from several levels, including the medium, the characters and
the world building, to break down and then explore the reboot
experience.
