Oh suddenly now it’s proven Hollywood is out of ideas.

I personally think it was the deluge of horror movies using public domain cartoon characters that did me in.

Its not „out of ideas“, its studios wanting to make money which overrides actual good or original ideas that dont get the same marketing budget or interference.
Its because people are still going to see slop (example all the disney remakes)

Why is this conversation never brought up when there’s another adaptation of Pride & Prejudice or Little Women?
It’s just another adaptation NOT a reboot.

Reboot? Don’t they mean adaption? Newflash, movies sometimes adapt existing material. Meanwhile original stories are still told, it’s just people hardly talk about them.

Well I’m gonna watch it

The ceos are just hoarding money now. Its Less money they have to spend on advertisement its a story already well known they start showing trailers a month before its realsed it will do sub par. Studios will continue to spend less on production

So my husband LOVES Alice in Wonderland and he was just complimenting Sabrina’s acting on SNL. He’s gonna be so excited!
We’ve been retelling Romeo and Juliet since Shakespeare wrote it. I think we’ll survive another Alice in Wonderland.

The author is just realizing that?

It’s not a lack of creativity. There are plenty of original stories out there. This is just a bottom line thing. They know what is cheep and easy so that’s what gets made. It’s the free market

It’s not “out of ideas”, it’s just too unwilling to invest in original ones.
Ok_Employer7837 on
It’s another adaptation of a very well known story. That happens all the time and it’s perfectly legitimate. This obsession with a mythical notion of „originality“ does not help people to form any kind of serious cultural memory and erudition. And it makes something like the Alice books, which are comparatively recent, seem like ancient history. I mean we still retell the Odyssey, thank Christ, and that’s from more than 2,500 years ago.
Give me competence over originality any day.

Hollywood hasn’t run out of ideas. There are plenty of ideas. Hollywood is just afraid to take risks.

Is this a Disney remake or an adaptation of the original book? Sabrina’s brand is a bit raunchier so it feels like a weird fit for a Disney one
gls2220 on
Yeah, I don’t think audiences are pounding the table for Alice in Wonderland.

Hollywood has been out of ideas since Hollywood existed. Same story, but it’s a boat, now its a plane, now its a tank, now its an animal. Same stories, there are literally 17 scenarios for movies and they rotate them over and over.

M pretty sure the 20 or so marvel movies, the 4 remakes of dc movies,

It’s not out of ideas it’s just studios are unwilling to take on new projects or anything perverse especially with Trump in office and I know this because I work on the business side and know multiple screenwriters they pitch, but the ideas don’t get picked up.

There’s plenty of ideas. There’s just no willingness for execs to risk a dollar if they don’t have to
Malcolmthetortoise on
They’ve been out of ideas for years.

There are actually millions of ideas, it’s just that they insist on trying to make billion dollar only movies.

So is movie journalism apparently

So this is your first day at the rodeo? Hollywood hasnt had anything decent since before Covid

Not buying ideas … very different.
retro-mime on
If people don’t stop paying to watch these movies they will continue to churn out the same old same old. They are looking strictly at sales/numbers. Quality and originality are not factors here.

Okay then by that logic, so does Guillermo del Toro’s Frankenstein.
