I think that might have been the Transformers movie series and similar successful reboots that appeal to a very broad audience. Those are basically effects movies with additional hype generated by a pre-existing fandom.
- Pica_soO 10y agoI sometimes think that some execs just desperately try to get control, metrics and reliability on every creative process, and in that process destroy their franchises. No evil intent i guess, just a attempt to sleep better at night, have a more solid illusion of control over once life. Its visible in games too- the hunt for the golden formula, which then leaves the market open for good old disruptive "art". Risk management by reducing risk management, that's a little paradox right in the backyard.
