I feel like they need to do what the comics used to do, back in the 80’s.
They’d have a huge crossover event, usually during the summer when kids have tons of free time. Then the event would end and every comic would go back to their own characters doing their own thing for a while. Telling smaller, but more personal stories, some of which were good.
I think we’re in that “smaller stories” phase, but it’ll go more slowly because movies take much longer to make.

I don’t think it’s the genre fatigue as I saw someone mention. I think it’s the mediocre to blatant bad writing that’s making people not attracted to it. Although some people may feel fatigue I think it’s dependent on the person. With Marvel it’s just like they’re trying to do too much super quickly and making bad hiring decisions, and Star Wars has a major issues of not staying true to source material, at least the previous trilogy cuz the shows are thriving. With Marvel, phase 4 was passable, and feel like people exaggerate how bad it was, but Quantumania is definitely something that can’t be avoided. Fiege stated he has a course correction plan and hopefully that includes numerous delays, and better hiring when it comes to directing and writing personnel. Can’t keep hiring inexperienced people/television/Rick and morty writers for your stories. Hopefully it’s more than just tampering with the release schedule. Some of the upcoming projects sound pretty promising, but whether they are actually given enough time to give the best script possible is unknown. And Star Wars, they’ve talked about so many movies that are being written and produced and nothing has happened with any of them. Just shows that Kathleen Kennedy isn’t entirely capable of handling that franchise.
I do however agree with the statement of needing to create more original stuff. However I feel like a lot of studios are guilty of that

What language did you watch it in? I can't stand dubbed stuff and couldn't find a language that actually matched the lips moving.

>Not sure if Abel has any acting chops
He was solid as hell in Uncut Gems.

I guess "calculated risks" would be a better term. They should have planned the plot of the trilogy before starting filming. Not a popcorn style assignment of 'Person A writes one paragraph, Person B writes the second, and Person A writes the conclusion.'

I mean is he really forcing himself into hollywood, if he is the one that started developing this movie? It's not like he stole anyone's part, he created it himself.

Sorry to Bother You. I enjoyed it the first time I watched it, and I never want to see it again.

I've rewatched that a couple of times and didn't hate doing that, although that said it was a solid ten + years apart and I definitely didn't really understand it when I saw it wildly underage the first time haha

So I just saw the whale but I wouldn't hate seeing it again 😅 my issue with memento is that the whole premise is sort of ruined once you've seen it once or twice and it just didn't seem to have the same impact as when I first saw it.

I'm sure someone wants to seem smart. It will probably die out when the attention falls off.

What? You’re telling me that the people who gave: Al Pacino an award for Scent of a Woman; Gary Oldman for Darkest Hour; Renee Zellweger for Cold Mountain; Bing Crosby for Going My Way; Sandra Bullock for the Blind Side and on and on actually got something wrong? That’s literally mind blowing.

And look how the SW fans reacted… 😉
I mean, I’m already expecting them to mass downvote you for saying you liked it.

Seems pointless. OP clearly has a predetermined answer, they're not looking for help to find a movie.

I really liked Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. Haven’t gone back to rewatch it yet. I feel like I liked it so much in my initial watch I just can’t replicate the enjoyment I felt on a rewatch.
