Depending on the cinema you are seeing, are you only watching shitty blockbusters? Then probably, but that's nothing new.
If you only watch big blockbusters then maybe, but there are still plenty of great original movies releasing consistently.
When will the the Superhero overdose end? For every Interstellar and The Revenant, we get 10 Avengers/Spiderman/gotg/Ironman/Deadpool/Batman/Superman/Thor/captain America/Xmen/Wolverine/Suicide Squad/Ant Man...... I mean fuck.
It's been like this for well over a decade. First it was the j horror remakes, then western horror remakes.
Now you can blame the current state of cinema on infantile movies like Avengers and Fast 8. Good quality blockbusters are a dime a dozen. The last good ones were Logan, Mad Max, Interstellar and the Revanent. The are some great small movies too like Midnight Special, Green Room, Sicario and Ex Machina.
| Jpcc86 said: No, its just that proven franchises usually sell the most. Much like videogames, doing a new gen of Pokemon - call it "Pokemon Ass and Pokemon Boobs" - would sell more than any new IP. Rarely would a new IP sell as high as lets say, Horizon. Production values are high so new film ideas usually struggle. Incidentally, Pokemon Ass would be better than Pokemon Boobs... it just has better content. |
To be fair,video game franchises rarely get rebooted. Also, only good games do good. You will rarely see a "bad" game get insanely successful. call of duty does not count, as it is more "disappointing" to long time fans than bad.
On the other hand, movies like Transformers make billions for no damn reason. Transformers 4 got around 900 million i believe. That movie was just plan awful, and yet did so well.
It is not that, "movie makers" (really you mean writers but whatever)... are out of ideas. I just finished a very original script and to be honest, my last script became two different ideas.
The problem is that financiers are not often warm to giving out big money for new ideas. They want their investment back and often that means playing it safe. The best way to do that is to slowly introducing new and/or radical ideas through current popular mediums that way if the new idea is disliked, the core movie will still be liked overall.

I've seen Japan doing it with some of their IP's as well.
If you take a gander at general movie history, we've been remaking and copying ideas for decades.
Step right up come on in, feel the buzz in your veins, I'm like an chemical electrical right into your brain and I'm the one who killed the Radio, soon you'll all see
So pay up motherfuckers you belong to "V"
Nah. Make a list of all of the movies that came out in 2016. Maybe 1/4 are remakes, reboots, or sequels.
Film Makers no. Film Executives yes.
I think it's mainly the fault of Disney/marvel. They are saturating the market with sequels and remakes.
