Do you ever get the feeling that Hollywood is out of ideas?

Answer 1

I knew that for a long time now. Their are a lot of people saying "I want to see this movie re-made over" Well those people are not realizing what they are watching. Any respectable movie fan will love to see originality not no damn remake because we've seen it and we don't need to see it again. Who cares if it has a different style to it, it's still the same story. C'mon people wake up and smell the coffee. It's time to understand the movies rather than think of it as something fun to do on your spare time. It's either take notice or don't comment at all.

Answer 2

All the remakes lately? Really, I think that all the actors are needed for something better. Also, with all the news on actors lately, the attention has been torn away from movie content and focused on the lives of the actors. I think it was better when we, the little people, were more focused on real things, and not on the private lives of hollywood actors. What is going on here anyways? Is hollywood that great??

Answer 3

all the time, movies are not as good as they used to be, they keep on coming out with fuucken remakes of old movies, that need to be left alone. besides there is nothing special about hollywood, its just another dirty tourist attraction.

Answer 4

I like how they have stopped putting numbers on sequels. Yeah that, and the constant remake of TV shows and old movies is a great indicater they are OUT!

Answer 5

Yes, next year and the remainder of this year will be nothing but sequels, remakes and adaptations...Hollywood is getting lazy.

Answer 6

The problem is, I'm told, all the studios are owned by corporations now. The corps. won't take chances, afraid of bombing at the box office. Dont they realize movie goers love original material?

It's sad. Shameful too.

Answer 7

Yes

Answer 8

A movie based on another movie, based on a sequel, based on the original, based on a comic book? No, of course they're not out of ideas!

Answer 9

Yes...reminds me of a gigantic snake eating its tail.
