Comment on 'Lilo & Stitch' passes 'Sinners' to become 2nd highest grossing film of 2025
BroBot9000@lemmy.world 5 days agoIt means we will get similar movies like this one, for example.
That’s a negative feedback loop. All it does is reinforce the decisions of the CEO to pump out more slop. Adding nothing but a new genre or style to their checklist of products to pump out.
The take away is that the economy is fucked and people don’t have the money to watch random shit in the theatre. The CEOs see that a viewer choice and the negative feedback loop is going to turn everything into franchises to be milked.
None of this is voting with your tickets.

Well clearly remakes are what the majority of the audience wants

I guess people don’t have a lot of money to spend on movies so when they go, they go for a safe choice. Personally I haven’t seen any of these remakes in theatres, only go watch a big franchise if it’s something I really enjoy (I absolutely am going to go watch Mission Impossible even though it’s the gazillionth movie) or something new entirely. I actually enjoyed in the lost lands even though it was far from perfect.
