Last movie I was actually pumped to go see: The Martian.

Last movie I was actually pumped to go see before that: Saving Private Ryan.

So, yeah. Hollywood comes up with original ideas very seldom. And the crime of it all is that there are a great many books and short stories out there that would make great movies, but they don't want to:
  • pay for the rights from the author
  • pay for a GOOD writer to screen play the book/story
  • actually have to story board an original screen play
  • use talent and experience to direct the screen play and bring it to life
It's far cheaper to just use shit already done. That's what has made JJ Abrams entire career: take an already written story, change three parts of it to where it makes no fucking sense at all, and turn the screenplay over to CGI guys that have been on a three day bender.

I mean, what does it say to you that ALL, not SOME, but ALL of the top grossing films are fucking comic book movies?

I mean, Jesus Christ on a crutch! I love Iron Man as much as the next guy, but one was enough!

And yeah, dinosaurs are cool...but for fuck's sake, ENOUGH with the god damned Jurassic Park movies!

Amen, brother T-mac!

Even the soundtracks sound the same.

I felt like asking for my money back after watching the last Predator sequel -- and I *love* the original.
Kinda like Star Wars. They have completely ruined it. :spew:

i'd rather see them stick to the canon, with han and leia having three kids, luke and mara jade having one, and they carry on when their parent get tired and old...

when lucas sold the rights, i knew this shit would happen. especially when he sold them to disney. disney has never made an edgy movie, and they never will. that's not what they do, and they don't do it well

The only 'franchise' that ever really worked was Star Wars, and by Star Wars franchise I mean the first three movies only.

But that was because the three movies combined told one story.

Everything before and since has always been a case of:
  • make one movie.
  • get completely shocked that movie does as well as it did.
  • quickly pound out another movie while the talk is still out there.
So what we have now is the same thing over and over again, only shittier each time.

I mean, the original Friday the 13th was actually a decent flick. How we got from a distraught mother killing teens making out because that's how her son died at that summer camp to some sort of immortal killer from hell is beyond me.

And beyond fucking stupid as well.

And when Star Wars started writing scripts not based on the original story line or anything even remotely resembling it, but for the sole purpose of being all gender, sexual orientation and race inclusive, I mean, what the fuck?!?!

What's next? A movie about the white, homosexual slaves with oriental bisexual wives being worked into the dirt growing non-gmo corn and cotton by their overbearing, transvestite black owners during the civil war?

5 bucks says some Hollywood hack sees that statement and it becomes a whole new franchise.

It should have died after the first one. The first was a good, fun movie. They never thought it would be that successful.

Every one after that was complete shit hurled together in record time to milk it until it died a slow, horrible death so bad that it actually soured people on the memory of the first one that was actually a good movie.

The Last Jedi killed it for me, was almost the exact story line as the first SW. Really??!! They won and in less than a life span they lost the universe to evil again. I'd be more interested in the history, i.e. going back to see how the original empire began
