    Nooooooo! I’m desperately waiting for “Recycled IP VII: return of the nonsensical Greenscreen”

      hopefully we’re nearing the end of the recycled and rebooted era. There aren’t that many movies coming out lately that I’ve been super excited about, but funny enough it’s the animated movies that have been the ones I’ve enjoyed the most. They’re getting pretty creative with art styles and taking a few more risks compared to live action options.

      Apart from Spiderverse 1 and 2, we’ve also seen great animated movies like Mitchells vs the Machines, Nimona, Puss in Boots the last wish, wolf walkers, and the Mario movie was more fun than most live action films I’ve seen lately. I liked Guardians of the Galaxy vol 3, but other than that I can’t say I’ve been really excited or interested in any other live action movie in a while.

    Hollywood still has plenty to offer, it’s just that the corporations who run everything would rather churn thru established properties than allow original ones to flourish since it’s seen as safer.

      Hollywood makes original movies all the time. Viewers just don’t go see them. Hollywood follows the money. If viewers watched original movies more, Hollywood would make them more.

      Oh I can’t wait to see that shitshow to be honest. Some of the latest movies i’ve seen already seemed to be written by ai.
      There are so many “good” movies out there i wouldn’t even mind if it all crashed and burn.

    Did I miss something about the strikes or is it just because of how long it’s been going on. Still trying to tweak my subscriptions to keep on top of news…

      Actors joined the strike this weekend, so a lot of production has ground to a halt now.

          Not really, all of the supporting crew is getting shafted this way. They never made actor (or writer) salaries and are pretty much unemployed at the moment because most of them work on a gig basis… I get that the writers and actors have the right to strike but it sucks for more people than just the studios.

            Sounds like they should join the strike then. Unless your solution is for everyone to get screwed equally.
