The execs used to be more adventurous 20-30 years ago. Spielberg, Scorsese, Landis, Lucas, DePalma etc. Those are all people who made movies in the studio system. Now it seems like that if these dudes were starting their careers right now, the studios wouldn't have accepted them.

>>84840112
its fucked because they are spending so much money to try and knock it out of the park with literally every single movie, so consequently every single movie resembles a big summer blockbuster which is why they all suck, because those kinds of movies try to cater to as wide an audience as possible.

Theaters will die out.

Streaming will win.

I don't have to put clothes on or listen to a gaggle of niggers squawking to watch a movie at home.


I've not been to the theater but twice in twenty years; and both times were at the demand of an ex-girlfriend.

Once brick 'n mortar theaters die since they simply can't compete with watching it at home; writing quality will improve as they'll need to focus more on actual story, development, characterization and such to entertain vs. LOUD NOISES & BRIGHT COLOURS spectacle CGI-shit to draw people in.

>>84840780
I think this is close to the truth. There are a lot of small issues that combine into a big issue of no interesting new movies coming out. From the good scripts not penetrating through the wall of readers to management not recognizing talent to not letting the talent shine if they actually decide to take a chance. Most of all it is a management issue as they have the power to fix all the smaller problems.

>>84840112
i doubt that it will happen but i hope it will

>>84842512
Says a lot that Drive is even worse then doesn't it?

With billions $ of profits they don't know if they can keep the studios afloat. This is BS, they're just demanding more tax cuts so the jewish producers make more money although the films are selling less.

>>84842541
But it's better

>>84840112
The type of movies that sinks in the audiences always goes in cycles and Hollywood has gone through several of these.

Once the most viewed movies were musical, then they were westerns and then dramas and then action movies and now superhero movies.

But again the audiences are getting tired, as the novelty has worn off, so studios are now frantically trying to figure out what will be next cash cow style.

And just like the proper capitalists they are, they'll milk it dry again.

>>84841874

Because there's no way a film needs 100-250 million dollars to produce.

It's a huge theft. Like in the producers you can make more money from a flop than you can from a hit movie. A successful movie you have to pay taxes on.

You can hide a lot of money my cutting corners. Ever wonder why SFX look way worse than they did 25 years ago? Outsourced and pocketed the difference.

>>84842800
There's definitely something fishy in how movies are produced. Some people can't produce a movie about soc'em robots with less than 200 million and some like Ridley Scott can produce a effect heavy sci-fi flick with less than 100 million.

Just fuck off with that shit, 90% likely hood that you're a millennial too but are too stupid to know it.

It sucks because I love seeing movies in the theater. This year I've seen like 4 movies so far. Everything is terrible right now. This is the lowest point in movie quality in movie history. I hope failures like the Mummy, Power Rangers and under performance of Transformers 5 make movies better next year.

>>84840780
It's more of a mix. If you compare what people consider the best movies from the 50s or the 60s to the 80s, you can see a large disparity.

The 50's and 60's were probably the best decades for foreign cinema. Filmmakers like Bergman, Fellini, Kurosawa etc.. thrived in that era. If you grew up in those two decades and you wanted to make movies you have a fuck ton of inspiration, which is why you see Scorsese constantly fawn over directors who were actively making movies from those two decades. He, along with people like Coppola, Spielberg, Lucas, Altman etc.. would go on to form New Hollywood, which is the United States' answer to the demand for alternative cinema when the movies made in Hollywood from the 60's were getting stale.

They would have a pretty brief period of success until the 80s came along (which can be attributed to the failure that is Heaven's Gate and Spielberg and Lucas helping form the concept of the blockbuster). Only Spielberg and Lucas saw further success in that decade while many other directors from New Hollywood found themselves struggling to do so. Movies like Jaws and Star Wars changed the moviegoing demographic drastically. One could argue auteur theory in Hollywood died in that decade and movies became very bland, stale and generic. If you watch the old clips of Siskel & Ebert, they would always whine about how many movies in the 80s looked like they were made in a factory rather than humans. These movies that were made in the 80s would inspire a generation of filmmakers and the cycle continues.

Hollywood movies are shockingly uncreative. Practically nothing original.

Every single movie is either:
>taken from a popular novel
>a sequel
>a reboot
>taken from some other pop culture source (comics, tv series, even fucking board games)

It's like they are only making movies of things they are sure will easily convert into instant cash, rather than taking risks on creative projects that may or may not work out. I think the studios are being run by business people these days rather than creative people.

Movies back 50 years ago were always trying new things, making up their own characters and plotlines, taking all kinds of risks and exploring novelty. Honestly though, I'm a /pol/ack so I'm glad it's dying. But it really is a shame because of the wasted potential. Imagine what they could create if they put their minds to it.

>>84843308
>Movies back 50 years ago were always trying new things
Ahaha, sure they did, grandpa

>>84843308
Hollywood won't be experimental if you keep encouraging them to make the same bland generic shit over and over again.

Every time I watch a movie in my local independent cinema, senior citizens make up 95% of the audience. Doesn't really help that you dismiss the alternatives when they are available.

>>84843308

This god damn, it's all about the audience. Hollywood just answers to the demand.

>it's a /tv/ pretends they don't do the same shit as everyone else thread

I blame George Lucas. There used to be a consent that movies had to be good and interesting to make money. Then George came along with his prequels and showed that all you need is nostalgia and CGI

Who gives a shit if Hollywood dies? Other countries produce better movies

Psychologically, it’s more comforting to spend 60 million dollars promoting a movie that costs 100, than it is to spend 60 million dollars for a movie that costs 10. I know what you’re thinking - if it costs 10 you’re going to be in profit sooner. Maybe not. Here’s why:

OK. 10 million dollar movie, 60 million to promote it, that’s 70, so you’ve got to gross 140 to get out. Now you’ve got 100 million dollar movie, you’re going spend 60 to promote it. You’ve got to get 320 to get out. How many 10 million dollar movies make 140 million dollars? Not many. How many 100 million dollar movies make 320? A pretty good number, and there’s this sort of domino effect that happens too. Bigger home video sales, bigger TV sales - so you can see the forces that are sort of draining in one direction in the business. So, here’s a thought… maybe nothing’s wrong. Maybe I’m a clown. Maybe the audiences are happy, and the studio is happy.

Maybe they should stop with the prequels, sequels, remakes, and reboots?

Sadly, it's not going to happen until Marvel/Disney stops shitting out movies.
So long as endless Star Wars and capeshit makes bank, people are going to chase that cash cow. We'll see bomb after bomb, but it won't stop them lusting after a franchise to exploit.
I'd imagine we have at least 5 years before that starts slowing down, and maybe more.

The scenario I imagine will be
>movies get more and more extravagant under the assumption of guaranteed profit, making any bomb more damaging
>Original Marvel actors start getting recast, turning andegree of the audience away
>Marvel forced to use current comic stories to adapt, which are fucking diabolical
>meanwhile the Sequel trilogy has ended, and the deluge of spinoffs has caused a degree of apathy in audiences, the severeity dependant on how much effort they put in the next two min movies. This makes Disney churn out even more in the hope of striking gold again, or even making another full on trilogy early
>eventually one bombs hard, and the illusion of Disney/Marvel being untouchable gets demolished
>execs learn nothing and carry on, but audiences, spoonfed by media mouthpieces, realise they're officially allowed to not like the movies

Theatres will never die because there's a number of people who go for the experience of the cinema. If anything it'll resort back to independently run theatres with dedicated returning members, and the multiplex chains will die out. That's a different issue, though not unrelated.

>>84841874
I think all kinds of attractions you have to actually go to are going to die out soon enough.

Looking at their current and future releases is so depressing. Outside of some good awards kino last year, they really need a regime change. Total company makeover.

Now we’re essentially all consuming very childish things – comic books, superheroes... Adults are watching this stuff, and taking it seriously!

>It is a kind of dumbing down in a way, because it’s taking our focus away from real-world issues.

>>84843308

This has always been a problem, but the issue we're having now is that people are starting to see reboots of movies they were actually old enough to see the first time as opposed to films before their time.

Movie studios can't rely on China forever to keep shit tier franchises afloat. They need to come up with something original and not pump out sequels to 30 year old movies (Top Gun 2), reboots to movies that didn't need reboots (The Mummy), and a franchise with a new movie every two years (Fast and Furious)

>>84846146

A movie like Ordinary People would never be made, much less be as popular as it was in 1980, in today's Hollywood. It fucking sucks, man...

For paying your fucking actors a fucking fee and a meal once a day, you fucking dirtbag kike.

Before we had a kid my wife and I would go to the movies at least once, if not twice a month. I'd even pay extra to see it at the AMC's DOLBY ATMOS theater up in tysons.

I'd have to fork over about 50 schekles a trip for tickets and popcorn.

Worth every penny.

Suffering. Had to explain who:
>Adam Warlock, Shocker, Scorpion, the Watchers, and Hela were
>how Quicksilver and Scarlet are the children of Magneto but why they couldn't reference that
>why Fantastic Four, the X-Men, and Deadpool weren't technically that Marvel

There's more I'm sure but those were painful enough.

Where the fuck did I call anyone a Jew in any of my posts

Who's ever reading this let me ask you this when was the last time we got great original films not base on any comics books tv shows video games etc studios should go back and create original films

>>84840112
>How long until the studios collapse?

Too long.

If you're not a child in puberty, female, or a virtue signalling SJW, then you have no excuse watching the hot garbage being put out by the degenerate Juden scum in Hollywood.

>>84843505
>This god damn, it's all about the audience. Hollywood just answers to the demand.

Not entirely true.

Hollywood pushes, for the sake of partisan ideology, some things that audiences hate.

Budgets need to be cut drastically. Shin Godzilla only cost $15 million and it looks decent most of the time. There's no reason to go over $100 million dollars on a flick.

The well will run dry eventually. People will start to get sick of them, and then what? They try it again? People won't stick around that long if they smell a similarly wrung out franchise.

Honestly, the numbers were always midling until Paul Walker died.

>>84849432
Not true. Parts 5 and 6 were huge hits.

Dude, how many of these fucking movies are there? Hoping Spics will stop loving F&F is like hoping that Chinamen will stop watching Bayformers.

Way to miss the point. On a technical level it's cheap as fuck to make a movie these days. It cost Kevin Smith 27 grand to make fucking Clerks. Considering no one was being paid, Clerks could be made today for literally nothing.

>>84849711
Not if you know what the fuck you're doing.

Everything has been done already. Almost every genre has been maxed out in terms of ideas. The movies today is just repetition of stuff we have already seen and thous peoples interest in movies will fade out and the industry will die.

Yeah, except that happened on television instead.

All the younger guys worth a damn transitioned to television 5-10 years ago. Even Scorcese is making stuff for HBO these days.

Producers, mostly. People who never even step on set or into an editing room.

I worked at a post-house and 5-7 people get credited for doing colour correction when only two people actually work on the film (the colourist and the assistant/conform artist). The rest are producers who get paid (more) to literally talk on the phone (one or EPs that are essentially just the business owners who attach their name to everything that comes through their company). Now this is just colour correction, so imagine every single department is like that.

Filmmakers need to start opening up their own studios. Most studio heads are just marketing grads (see: Sony powerpoints) who are trying to maximize profit, so it's no wonder they're weirdly out of touch.

But as long as it's profitable to make shitty films, it'll happen. Thanks, China.

>>84852539
>Filmmakers need to start opening up their own studios

That has always worked so well. United Artists and American Zoetrope spring to mind as two of the most successful.

labor. On actual shoots that pay professional rates with crafty and everything else you're blasting ass constantly. At least $300 on crafty and meals a day. Department heads are getting $450+, PAs are generally getting $150.

I worked in the production offices of Captain Phillips. Spending $100,000 a day is a lot easier than you'd think.
