My favorite is that their seeming takeaway from the success of Barbie is to go heads deep into TOY MOVIES.
Thanks Obama
Where’s the creativity?
In the accounting!
You need to remember that Hollywood is risk averse. They are not making things to make art but to make profit. Thats why there’s like ten Fast and the Furious movies. Because they print money because car go fast boom explosion family.
When that realization hits home it makes perfect sense why we see remakes and adaptations and sequels. They already have a fanbase who will go see it.
“You need to realize …” … exactly what the meme is calling out? It’s calling them uncreative, not declaring their efforts null and void. No one is saying they fail at money. They fail at meat on bones.
Why waste time write many movie when few movie do trick?
It’s there. To paraphrase Anton Ego though, new things need people to stick up for them. So if you see a new story, go see it and tell your friends. Everything Everywhere All At Once is a great example. Amazing movie, and it’s stuck with me.
I’ve heard so many good things about WH40k, but every time i search about it I get overwhelmed. Don’t know where to start. Any tips?
Watch Alfabusa’s If the Emperor Had a TTS Device! That’s how I got introduced to it!
Not only is it funny as hell and entertaining to boot, it’s extremely informative as an introduction to the lore!
Edit: A great resource to dive deeper after getting introduced to lore points is the good ol’ wiki rabbit hole. :)
Dude I am 100% certain you replied to the wrong guy, because the only 40k stories I’ve read are Caiphas Cain books (which are pretty funny and entertaining).
Not really into grimdark though; when positive change is impossible I tend to check out and lose interest in the story.
Yes, I did post it wrong, my bad. Liked your answer, though!
I feel like EEAAO was somehow engineered to get people to say they like it for no particular reason, it almost feels like they made a movie that would be a social faux pas to say you didn’t like it. But actually I found it super boring and it remains a mystery to me why top rated movies are what they are.
Yeah yeah, EEAAO mentioned again. Again. How original.
How many of you motherfuckers here watched RRR and why the fuck haven’t you yet? It’s the best movie of last year. Yes the intro makes it look like a generic action bollyflick with more money, but they actually did quite a fair bit beyond that.
I mean I tried to watch RRR. It was … unintentionally funny. But by all means go on hating popular thing.
hating popular thing
I’m not hating on the movie, learn to read dingleberry.
I’m hating on people going “we need to support small endeavors” and then going and suggesting the second largest success of the year behind only the most profitable movie of all time. Not that RRR is lagging much behind, but man, at least way less people watched it and at least it isn’t spammed everywhere. Even less watched Inside and literally no one ever says it. Nope, it’s always the same movie.
The equivalent this year would be someone saying “you guys need to watch Barbie”. Like. We know. Nothing should compel anyone spreading that word some more. Crippling unoriginality trying to put itself on a pedestal deserves being called out.
you should give the new wes anderson movie “the wonderful story of henry sugar” a try, it’s fantastic in terms of creativity and really unique in it’s storytelling.
i just finished watching it and i love it.
If you want creative movies try to check out some A24 movies.
Some examples: Ex-Machina, Swiss Army Men, The Lobster, The lighthouse, Everything Everywhere All at Once, Beau is Afraid, The Whale.
I don’t care, inject more Star Wars into my veins please. My childhood dreams are now reality.
Transformers/GI JOE 3: RETURN OF THANOS
Fucks sake even the original projects are just repainted iteration, Moana, Frozen, and Encanto are all Disney Princess stories, MAOI EVEN CRACKS JOKES ABOUT IT!
They should remake the original star wars movies
I’m convinced they just refuse to read and use books the way they used to. There’s several books and series I’d love to see made instead of the same recycled shit.
But I guess you can’t predict sales for something brand new and that’s starting to bite us in the ass. We need more studios taking big risks on something new.
I feel like they have poor track records in choosing books. They seem to only ever choose Young Adult Fiction… which isn’t bad, but if the ones they tend to choose, they’re usually very tropey.
And we have A24 studios. They seem to be doing a pretty good job lately.
I’m actually glad they don’t really adapt books as much anymore. Their track record on adaptation in recent years have been such that they’ll probably just ignore preestablished lore in favor of whatever bullshit they think will sell more a lá Halo.
They’ve done that a lot, with nearly every series I can think of. But I’d rather them at least attempt to adapt something than say “we can’t execute the source content exactly so we won’t try”
Maybe if they didn’t try, we’d end up with fewer abominations like Star Wars Disney Canon. Lol.
I kid, kid… … …mostly.
Here it is -> https://imdb.com/title/tt11858890/
The creator is beautifully made
Nothing wrong with any of those.
