The year 2015 was quite a great year for Hollywood and pop culture as a whole and we still feel its influence throughout the decade. In fact, it was so great that most of the studies tried to go through the era of nostalgic awakening and huge franchises at the peak of their popularity. When we expect the modern Jurassic world, the next restart of Superman and the Returning Fantastic Four, we must wonder how long the entire industry can work on the past.
In many ways, 2019 meant the end of the era. We all know what happened right after the beginning of 2020, but the last year 2010 also represented the final of huge IPS addresses, such as Game of Thrones, MCU and Star Wars … Besides, there was no. Despite several solid efforts to start modern film/television franchises in recent years, pandemic, market misfortunes and general fear of looking for the future forced Hollywood to continue to rely on what is secure and basic to sell, until everything is dried up and dead.

Be straightforward, Nothing really disappeared Too long, if it was a huge success. This has been happening for decades, but when people talk about the “saturation” of intellectual property, they say that it becomes too swift, mainly a good thing, which in turn ends with dismantling potential recipients about what they loved. With a more constant pace of production and distribution, there is also a chance to spoil something. Just look at what happened to the reputation of Marvel Studios in recent years or general apathy towards Star Wars as a whole, even if a handful of D+ shows hit it.
These are just a few examples. Last year, Furiosa: Mad Max Saga, the first in the history of Spinoff Mad Max, it was not possible to evoke the emotions caused by Fury Road in 2015. Similarly, Indiana Jones from 2023 and the distribution of destiny seemed to be a petite blow to a cultural conversation, because the modern generations do not care about the character. The same applies to the flash after it was too much to restore Batman’s iteration, which means nothing for the average zoomer. I am afraid that you do not fill in theaters, referring to 50-year-old men and US nerds.
In general, nostalgia still pays off. 2022 Jurassic World: Dominion He earned just over $ 1 billion, despite obtaining terrible reviews of both critics and fans, which explains why Universal threw himself at a “new era” for a franchise without a little downtime. What is the way to ensure fatigue? UH, return to the basics (again) after the average fan was simply not consoled enough by the bolder swings of Colin Trevorrow with his trilogy at Jurassic World from 2015. Will it pay off? Probably, because the general’s audience seems to just love dinosaurs, and the approach “remix with a new spark” worked well enough for Alien: Romulus last year.
Fantastic restart of four Marvel Studios, one of the company’s priorities after taking over the entire Fox library, will also appear 10 years after the last attempt to re -destroy (seemingly cursed) IP. They say that the third time is a charm, but Disney and Marvel attach additional weight to him, because MCU as a whole tries to return to the right good health despite the last win of Deadpool and Wolverine (another owe to nostalgia and restoring heroes after their main ones). In this context, the setting is retro, a 100% alternative space race, it has a double meaning, and more progressive characters of Marvel do not convince for various reasons, maybe this is a sign where they are going after matters when matters will face the multiverse saga is awkward Wrapped until 2027.
Elsewhere, we have, as we train a remake of your dragon live, not offering anything modern, Disney probably does the same with the Królewk Śnieżka, Lilo & Stitch, Mission: Impossible – the final settlement trying to put the end of Ethan Hunt’s sagie (but probably not franchise) and Minecraft, which has appeared over a decade. These are simply A few examples. Not everyone will be irate, but this is what tired filmmakers mean when they say that we are in the “era of slope” in which IP has priority. Sure, fresh “nutrients”, but high concepts, actually the original hits are little and far away.
In this script, the third (out of five) movie Avatar James Cameron would be considered “fresh” in the sense that it does not work with a tired IP Boomer or awkwardly tries to adapt a video or comic game. Despite this, the first avatar will be 16 years ancient before it opens, so we could now consider nostalgic continuation plans. Remember that I love these films and I really believe that he and his people have put on an amazing job to stand out, but it is so.
I will not lie: I am very pumped on many of them, perhaps for completely different reasons, perhaps because I hope that the creators can introduce enough life to tired stories and universes, which were once much more attractive to the basic level . This is an attitude that often pays off, at least for me. Besides, I am a “glass in full” guy. Nevertheless, I would like to be able to expect more people under satisfied crowds, such as the entire production of Jordan Peele or Ryan Coogler’s sinners.
What comical, Predator is a franchise that currently told modern stories, which will also satisfy the ancient guard after Official from 2022 and what we know about Badland. There is also a petite flash of hope for Star Wars with thinking ancestors, such as the film after Sagie after Skywalker led by Rey or a super distant prequel, which shows us the beginnings of the Jedi Order and the way people first used force. Until they happen and dare to do something thematically, get ready for more X-wings and imperial remains.
When we enter the decade point and unfortunately they look gloomy all over the world, there are chances that the audience will turn to films and television in a great way to quickly avoid. After all, that’s what the entertainment for the crowd liked. But it is also critical to demand that art (I do not buy a “high/low art” scratch) discusses the problems of the present and dare to go forward, slowly, but gradually, towards a better tomorrow.
The problem is that at the moment it seems that we are simply drifting and trying to find out awkwardly whether we are more afraid of the past or the future. As for the people who occupy the mainstream bills, they came up with all. Your movement.
