What's the actual next Hollywood trend after capeshit?
>>
idk capeshit's been going strong since Spider-Man came out back in 2002, I don't see it dying down any time soon.
>>
Kaijukino


Then maybe fantasy adaptations will come back when Dune gets released, plus the announced wheel of time and xanth (ugh) movies
>>
YA shit failed so bad that the maze runner and divergent series never finished
>>
>>81262213
disney remakes and more star wars (which is basically capeshit by now), apparently
>>
>>81262625
so disney is the only studio that stays winning
>>
>warcraft failed
It grossed 3 times its budget
>>
>>81262646
basically, when you can afford mass marketing it's really easy

also:
franchise revivals
>>
>>81262646
Disney always wins baby
>>
Live action disney
Reboots of shit nobody even remembers (fucking chips)
Star Wars
Capeshit
Kaiju if we are lucky
>>
>>81262534
Dylan O'Brien got his skull crushed.
>>
Reboots. Fairy Tale shit that 20-something women will throw money at because they have princess syndrome. More Capeshit.
>>
>>81262213

Non-YA book series like ASOIAF and Leviathan Wakes.

So in case you were wondering, this is good news.
>>
>>81262213
It's still gonna be anime and vidya kino.

>Edge of Tomorrow was actually anime kino and was good
>MGS from the director of Kong: Skull Island
>More polished Warcraft 2 from Jones
>>
>>81262213
More adaptations
>>
>Indieshit is unironically the only remaining hope for modern cinema

I hate this timeline, can we go to a different one?

>>81262843
I expect we'll get a Way of Kings trilogy soon. And it's not good news, because Brandon Sanderson is legitimately one of the best authors among modern genre fiction who regularly puts books out, and he's a pretty shitty author as things go. He basically writes novelized video games.

If Kaijukino becomes a thing, I want a movie focused on dragons. Like, different species of dragons in 1 movie, from the tiniest runts to ancalagon-tier fuckhuge shits. Hell, make it without dialogue and focus entirely on dragons, and make humans the bad guys

Has always been that way, at least since Star Wars.

>most of the awards are won by either original scripts, independent films or not so popular novel adaptations

>more than often we get some good action flicks

The only thing that sucks right now is that we're getting bombed with remakes of films that don't even need one.

>>81263192
Alien vs Predator and Freddy vs Jason already failed.

We will literally get just that with Kong vs Zilla, even though it has been done before.
It will be the dawn of Kaijukino, and the rebirth of crossover-kino

>>81262906

We will see how Ready Player One turns out even though I haven't read the book.

The funny thing is I read a fuckton of science fiction but none of them would make a particularly good film.

Right now television shows seem to be figuring out how to do it though.
>>
>>81263281
>the dumb action films were actually GOOD
Nah, they have always remained the same, in my opinion. Other than T2, I don't really think any action blockbuster film can be held in high regard, at least when compared to other great films.

The Good Guys, Edge of Tomorrow, Fast and the Furious, John Wick and the Bourne films are as serviceable as let's say, Die Hard, Predator or Robocop.
>>
>>81263409
Netflix is basically the last hope for Sci-fi TV. It doesn't pull enough audience for Television to keep it afloat with how inherently CGI-intensive it is. The Expanse is headed for cancellation already.

Fantasy could work because dudes with rubber swords is a lot cheaper to shoot. I'd like to see some Black Company movies, or a TV show, but I doubt anyone would be willing to adapt the Lady cockteasing Croaker by giving him dreams about having a violent threesome with her 11 year old self and twin sister.
>>
>>81263527
>The Good Guys, Edge of Tomorrow, Fast and the Furious, John Wick and the Bourne films are as serviceable as let's say, Die Hard, Predator or Robocop.

This is undeniably true, but we're on /tv/, so people will tell you otherwise
>>
>>81263166

This.

The only way to make an original property huge right now is to start out small like John Wick then reboot it in a generation with a $200m budget.

And it's shot in Canada. Which means their government subsidies end after season 4, which means they need to double the viewer count or they go under.
And they've also already adapted both the good books, and next season is going to be the adventures of a black lesbian ninja Nun who takes out wifebeaters and saves Holden from Julie Mao's evil twin who is also a super soldier for some inexplicable reason, and the entire season takes place in one tiny part of space with no planets.

from a visual standpoint, past action movies were better. and also from the standpoint of scoring.

>>81262843
>Non-YA book series like ASOIAF and Leviathan Wakes.
>So in case you were wondering, this is good news.
ASOIAF adaptation has been fucking awful after the first season, but made a lot of money for HBO. Should they go for the route you described, it's likely they will go with retarded low budget shlocks relying on shock value of character deaths.
>>
It's all coming together.

As time goes on there are fewer and fewer big properties to adapt until they will inevitably have no choice but to adapt 40k.

Right now it's just a matter of time.

We are talking about success. Not your own wildly unpopular opinion on the quality of the show.

Got is one the most popular and successful shows in there history of the world.

Your own edgy opinion is not pertinent to how popular it is.
>>
>>81264137
That's what I said in my original post you fucking imbecile. Due to the fact that it made a lot of money without bothering to present anything of quality, they will likely go that route and shit out useless edgy shlock after shlock.

OP's original post mentions videogame movies, young adult novels and anime as source material for movies.that bombed.

So OP is asking what pop culture source material other than capeshit and Star Wars will not bomb and actually become successful.

So tell me how GoT bombed genius.

Nobody gives a shit about your edgrlord opinion about a wildly popular show because it's irrelevant.

Learn into reading comprehension next time Einstein.

>>81264631
holy fuck you might actually be retarded

he literally said game of thrones was successful and that studios would produce similar shows

he also added that he thought GoT sucked

you latched onto his comment that it sucked and failed to notice that he said it was a commercially successful show

so he REITERATED that he said it was successful

It seems like these uber forgettable cgi shit-fests that are vary loosely based on some mythology/folk tale/old literary classic have been a cash grab trend that's getting noticeablely worse.
I wouldn't be surprised is some ham-fisted and uninspired Beowulf, Gilgamesh, or some dark take on three little pigs move came out next fall.

The only one of those I would consider good is The Great Wall. It's done by the same guy who did Hero and House of Flying Daggers, so there is some artistic creativity present, unlike shit like Gods of Egypt.

Gods of Egypt is better than movies like clash of the Titans though. The main character actually changes and is dynamic.
