Todayβs Ask PHlemmy: Which "famous" movie franchise is pretty much dead?
Literally the DC Extended Universe: with its final 2 movies The Flash and Aquaman 2 releasing this year, and yesterdayβs announcement of the new Superman (David Corenswet) and Lois Lane (Rachel Brosnahan) for a reboot
Fast & Furious? I stopped watching just about the time Jason Statham showed up.
What's unique with Fast & Furious franchise is that they combine practical effects and extensive CGi at the same time, and it's glorious when you watch them in theaters. lol
Toys Story. Not because flopped na. Pero toys are becoming irrelevant
Not to mention that they lied to us by saying Toy Story 3 is the end (and it concluded well). Then they did a fourth one tapos may Lightyear pa.
X-Men? the latest i watched is dark phoenix and according to wikipedia there was a movie released in 2020 that flopped
Naging horror na ewan.
Tbf, New Mutants was watchable... mostly because of Anya Taylor-Joy's performance there as Magik. Other than that, meh. Buti na lang nakuha na ng MCU rights ulit sa X-Men.
Terminator is dead since terminator 3
In Hollywood? Everything and anything will be remade and continued. Even a flop will eventually return. I don't doubt the dark universe (with Tom cruise and Russell Crowe) will be revisited after a few years.
Shrek franchise ig
