Movies are so over. I’d be surprised if movies ever made a comeback like they used to be, even if they dumped all the wokeism.

Perhaps one reason they are so bad is that it's almost impossible to come up with an original story idea.

There are so many good movies from the past, there isn't really too much need for new ones.

Unless, of course, someone somehow starts coming out with frankly non-PC, non-woke movies.

Movies about things that we just can't talk about.

Like honor killings of daughters in certain "protected communities," for instance.

Or an honest look at the problems of inner-city schools.

Such movies would have to be distributed in channels similar to the way pornographic films were handled, sixty years ago.

There are a lot of good movies to be made, that people will pay for, but Hollywood is trapped.
They want theater receipts or crap Netflix porn.
I give an example; Dune. I read the book in one weekend.
the first major Dune movie did about 10% of the story.
The second recent movie cut it in half expecting you will pay to see the second part.
Film the entire story do an intermission such as Ben Hur
did.
Dune is a long story! and sell it online screw the movie theaters.You can’t even drink a beer in them and 10$ day old popcorn is a joke. Only idiots go there anymore.
for content;
Why not try the Foundation series? or the full Moby dick?
there are lots of good wholesome stories out there.
quit pushing political unwanted crap down peoples throats!
PS we all have flat screen TV’s with good sound, can sit in clean recliners, drink beer, and enjoy a good movie, at home.
