    If they were actually reinventing the movies it probably wouldn’t be so bad. But they are basically just plagiarizing the same movies over and over.

      “Save the cat” did so much damage to cinema, it’s just staggering. The books are good but god, people treat them like MadLibs and it’s ruined so many otherwise promising ideas.

    Yeah. Creativity in film is hot garbage now. No one is willing to take a chance on new IP when they can cash in on remakes/reboots and parts 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7….

      Neither do audiences. There’s still original movies in theaters, they just don’t do as well as sequels, remakes, and adaptations.
