This version of Total Recall is supposed to be more true to the short story, if anyone actually gives a crap about that.

Hollywood has plenty of new ideas.

But they never see the light of day because the money is made redoing the same ones over and over.

As long as people flock to the reboots, expect more. You get the movies you deserve.

Probably the reason I see one movie a year . . . if that.

Hollywood focus is now on big opening weekends before word spreads that the movie sucks and people stop watching it. Which is why they spend much more on marketing then ever before.

While this is true, one great thing about Twitter/Facebook/etc is that the word gets out on Friday instead of Monday about how crappy a movie is.

Yup and I would guess that the major studios really hope for a big opening night.


It would seem wiser to just spend money on developing good original movies than on a huge marketing campaign for a crappy movie, but that's just, like, my opinion, man

If your movie is good it'll just get pirated. Part of the reliance on the big opening weekend is driven by the fact that after opening weekend there'll be 50 billion pirated copies available on all the torrent sites.


With more and more people having large screen TVs at home there are more and more people willing to save the $20 (after their fat face gets popcorn and a drink) and just watch it at home instead.
