I agree to a point, but Mad Max is an example of something original that seems to have come from a place of creativity instead of a committee and yet is still doing poorly.
So I don't think it's just that Hollywood has a tendency to do remakes instead of original stuff.
Expect to see memes about it too in other communities. This'll be the front page of most fediverse instances in some fashion for the rest of the day I imagine
If you wish to enter Hades, you know the price that must be paid.
Bacon, fresh.
Well? What's the name of his book??
Honestly, I'd be down for that. I love dogs
He was Paul Allen in American Psycho, though I don't know how successful that was at release.
Song of Achilles by Madeline Miller would fit the hard mode here, for those interested.
Won't fit the hard mode, but Charles Sheffield's Tomorrow and Tomorrow was an interesting read. The first third wasn't really my thing, but after that the book goes way far into the future.
This seems really fun, thanks for organizing this! I don't know if I read fast enough to fill in more than a few squares, but should be a fun challenge all the same.
I've only seen a few episodes of TNG, but mine is Q is lame and unenjoyable. Maybe he gets better as the show goes on, but having the first episode involve him was a bad decision.
A sad day for both England, and the world.
Just because it's a sequel doesn't mean it's derivative. All 5 movies are directed by the same guy. I can't speak for the first 3, but if you saw the 2015 movie and couldn't tell that it was a passion project, then I don't know what to tell you. We don't call Sherlock Holmes soulless even though Doyle wrote over 50 short stories starring Holmes.
It's entirely possible for someone to be creatively invested in a world they've built and want to keep exploring it in future works.
