there is originality, but no one wants to risk investing in it. that's why we have few good mainstream movies per year. like all other entertainment industries, movie industry grown and changed over the years. not only, that audience have higher expectations than before, but to create one blockbuster movie you need hundreds millions of dollars . its much safer to create remake, sequel or movie adaptation of comic/cartoon/game (and anime/manga these days).. we are stuck with these kind of films now...and its just going to get worse for us 80/90's kids. thank god there is much more than mainstream in movie industry. good post btw, you got yourself a follower sir :)

Thank you for your support and great feedback! It seems filtering the gems out of a sea of "generic reproductions" is the way to go then. I've yet to see any "new plots" per se after years of watching the same old spin retold so very many times over. But yes, I do agree that our outlook, from our current perspectives, won't be improving anytime soon.
