>>211581531I'm gonna let you in on a secret. These legacy franchises have a chokehold on genres.
We can't have a non-Jurassic Park movie about dinosaurs.
We can't have a non-Pirates of the Caribbean movie about pirates.
We can't have a non-Harry Potter movie about comfy magic adventures and wizardry.
We can't have a fun globe-trotting adventure movie anymore unless it's connected to an existing IP like Indiana Jones, Uncharted, Lara Croft, etc.
It's all risk-averse corporate mandated mining of preexisting titles. Goonies wouldn't get made today, Edward Scissorhands wouldn't get made today, Rambo wouldn't get made today.
