Just Stop

Today I'm switching things up
I have no article
Mainly because I want to address something important and also there was no good articles. Most of the articles I could of covered would of just sounded like repetition of all my previous posts.
Unless you would like to read about how Tom Cruise was casted in some boring film that you're not going to watch unless it goes on Netflix.

Though let us move on to the topic.
Now this topic isn't really for film students but more just for the future ahead.
It's the topic of having a brand and a series of films. Hollywood is big on just resurrecting old ideas and films.
They just drag them on for miles squeezing out every last penny.
It is a quite a sad thing to see but people still go and spend money to see the film. It's a constant cycle that some of you future filmmakers may get wrapped up in. Now though every once in a while they actually resurrect the franchise beautifully.
Like for example the last batman trilogy and the recent X Men film.
I had lost hope in X Men films but this last one brought together good action with good story. So ask yourself what will you lean towards?
Are you trying to create that wow factor or a gripping storyline?
It's not always easy to do both so prepare yourself for what is to come

What is your opinion on Hollywood films? Should they keep the series going or just let them die in peace? Do you like to see the same stories you're comfortable with or introduced to something unique and confusing?
