They are making a remake of “Road House”.
All they seem to do is remakes.
They’re making a sequel to Ghost too……
They’ve done a lot of remakes of Patrick Swayze movies.
Road House
red Dawn
ghost
And I think they are doing a remake of Dirty Dancing.
Oh yeah…..say that as well. No creativity.
The reason theaters are filled with fast and furious movies and other comparably shitty products is because that’s what makes money.
The top 10 highest grossing films last year domestically were all either sequels or part of a superhero franchise. They have no need to come up with any new ideas.
Donald Trump is a stupid man's idea of a smart man, a poor man's idea of a rich man, and a weak man's idea of a strong man.

Pop culture gotta pop.
Doesn’t make it creative though.
And remakes of movies are the least creative thing one can do.
Some sequels at least show character and story development. The franchise stuff is hit or miss.

That must be why they lost a 1/2 Trillion dollars in 2022.

Disney slammed for 'anti-White propaganda' new The Proud Family reboot
Disney show argues that America 'owes' black Americans because the country 'still has not atoned for' its systemic prejudice, racism and white supremacy.
WTF. Sell all your Disney shares people. Bankrupt them.

Movies today suck, period. It's because the people in this country are so stupid they will watch nothing but the 500th Marvel movie. The movie quality is a direct correlation to a young population with no critical thinking capabilities.

Last really good one was Deadpool?
Some decent kids movies like Frozen, Zootopia,
Moana, but overall, pretty crappy.
Netflix’s ‘Queen Cleopatra’ Appears To Have The Worst Audience Score In TV History
The issue is the conceptualization of what purports to be a historical documentary saying that Cleopatra was a black “African queen,” as this season was supposed to be the first in a series covering different queens from the continent. But there is not terribly credible evidence that Cleopatra was black, and instead she was of Macedonian Greek descent. The country of Egypt in particular has taken offense to the show altering their history this dramatically and portraying it as something they believe is non-factual in a series that is meant to be a documentary.

Julius Cesar was black, William Shakespeare was black, Babe Ruth was black...Revisionist history and Afrocentrist BS.

LOL………keep taking the L’s woke groomers……man, I hope the new Indiana Jones movie flops. Given what Variety wrote, it’s not looking good. Raiders of the Lost Ark is one of my favs too. Almost $300M to make. I get won’t dare cut KK loose…….and she’s taking all these franchises and shiRting on them for THE MESSAGE.

Reports are saying they need to make $800M to break even.
The BBC wrote a review saying it’s gloomy and depressing. Of course Disney has to take an iconic HuWhite male hero and make the new female co-lead the awesomest!
I'm not sure how many fans want to see Indiana Jones as a broken, helpless old man who cowers in the corner while his patronizing goddaughter takes the lead, but that's what we're given, and it's as bleak as it sounds.
Yeah……..typical Kathleen Kennedy BS. They really know how to kill a franchise.

Good.
The race-swapped Little Mermaid sits at $467M worldwide. With a cost of $250M to make plus production and marketing it probably needs to make another $142M to break even in theaters. It’s down to 11.6M this past weekend with a 50% drop. Now you have the new Kathleen Kennedy Ruins Another Franchise film with the new Indy movie coming out……coming in at almost $300M to make……ouch. I hope that movie flops big time given what I’ve heard about it. Raiders Of The Lost Ark is one of my favorite films of all time and I hate to even say that, but KK is horrid…….and Disney is a bunch of Groomers.

Wow……so latest updates had DoD costing $327M and it had a 68% drop in the second week and is estimated to hit $119-122M after this week. This is going to cost them hundreds of millions of dollars. It’s the typical LucasFilm/Kathleen Kennedy template…..take strong HuWhite male character and deconstruct him and insert a Mary Sue.
If she doesn’t get fired after this, she has something on Disney management……..
