Yet another example for: popularity doesn’t equal quality. I mean there will be more enough money in those movies for a high production value, but what an uninspiring bunch of crap!
Yeah, serious parallels to the Steam awards.
This is the type of list someone you meet at a party who “loves movies” would give you.
I am literally not interested in any of them 😂
Great. Superhero, remakes, and sequels. Amazing. /s
Select big studio movies, sort by marketing budget descending
I wasn’t aware anyone cared about Thunderboltcats or Capt Weaksauce.
I’m excited for the new Bong Joon Ho movie Mickey 17
“I can’t wait for them to reboot The Fantastic Four again” said nobody ever
That one literally looks like it’s a joke
It certainly does have an Adult Swim/Sealab vibe to it
Remake.
Sequel.
Prequel.
Remake.
??? (Ripoff)
Sequel.
Remake.
Sequel.
Shameless money grab. (Oh wait that’s all of them)
Sequel.
I’m in for the first two!
Looking forward to 1, 2 and 6. The rest aren’t on my radar.
A lot of this stuff capitalizes on our desire for nostalgia. When shit is going bad, you reach for something you know and remember fondly. Capitalism banks on that. That’s why we have so many reboots and sequels. It’s not a bad thing if they’re not obvious cash grabs and you just need a pickup, but it’s also very lazy. It’s another sign that a cultural plateau is where everything is at.
The reality is that the majority of movie viewers want more of what feels safe.
Just 1 & 2 here. The rest just look like cash-grabs.
I’m looking forward to 6 because I like Anthony Mackie (Twisted Metal was awesome) and want to see how his story goes. The MCU has felt unmoored and that could be a good one in the mix.
Honestly we could do with a decent “grounded” movie in the MCU, similar to Winter Soldier.
I think the less powerful superheroes work best in detective-type stories.
Yeah, I wanna see Florence Pugh’s sarcastic kickass character, though. I’d watch her and Deadpool be the most cynical trash-talking adversaries over like 7 seasons … and somehow Phil Coulson is in it too with Fury pulling a Bosley.
Yeah, I’d watch the hell out of that.
