These days it seems movie making is about taking the least risk. Most if not all the big budget flicks are either fantasy/scifi or reboots of old franchises or superhero movies or a combination of them. There seems to be a lack of a tight script and good storytelling. The last movie which was not a marvel/dino/superhero genre and enticed me to watch in the theatre was "gone girl". I wish we see more of those movies again.
- CompelTechnic 8y agoI agree with your point but I also want to point out that if you think about the ratio of money you spend on franchise movies vs. other movies, even the people that like to complain (not accusing you of complaining) are often at fault. I know personally that I see just about every Marvel movie in theaters, but for any no-big-name movie, I wait until I can see it on Netflix or just never see it at all. I cannot complain without being a hypocrite.
- 0xcafecafe 8y agoI see your point (I myself have seen most the marvel movies in the theatre). But I think if the movie is good, people would be willing to go to the theatre to watch. "Get out" is a good recent example.
