The top ten box office movies for 2024 had 8 sequels, a live action Disney remake, and the first part of an adaptation of a Broadway musical based on a book which was a prequel to another remade movie based on a book.

I reckon the 2025 list reflects the state of the industry quite well.

They draped one over the back of Poland that time.

Am I wrong or would that mean the US workforce was 743,360,000 people?

Five separate serious attempts, I reckon? Might have been as many as 20 altogether.

Same here. Reminds me that Reddit was mostly techy posts for the first while too.

I think he/she is on a mission to reform English orthography. This is their personal evangelism. I'm ok with it.

Art, as the old adage goes, is 1% inspiration and 99% perspiration. It certainly is work, if you've ever sculpted an eight foot block of marble, or memorised one of Beethoven's piano sonatas. And it doesn't leave much time for paying the rent. The question is whether we compensate people for art, such that they can keep doing it. Does society invest in it, so that people of limited means can participate and have their voices heard? This debate has existed for thousands of years.

I'm sure astronauts love their work too, but they still get paid. Artistic endeavours cannot be reserved solely for the idle rich.
