Universal monster movie universe. They'd call it something stupid like "dark universe".

I guess the redditor didn't know about this...

2016[?]

The Dark Universe was a planned series of monster films that were being developed and distributed by Universal Pictures. The Dark Universe was meant to serve as rebooted versions of past monster films that take place in a shared universe. Plans for the shared universe were shelved following the failure of The Mummy.

    Honestly I think that could work.

    Have you ever seen the Clerks cartoon? It's truly bizarre. Apparently the studio commisioned it with no idea what clerks was, then stuck it in the kids saturday morning line up. After a few episodes the writers realized that their very not for kids show was deinitely getting canned so they went full dada. Idk if it holds up, there are a lot of 90s culture references, but it's a weird moment in cartoon history.
