Did everyone just…. forget how to create, all of a sudden? Disney pumping out the fourth remake in a row? Movies are like 70% sequels? Stories in games being just bad if they exist at all? Haven’t had a book get hyped in like half a decade? Are we okay? What’s going on?

Capitalism demands profit over art

There’s actually a real explanation here, the way copyright law works is you have to actually DO something with the property your copyrighting or you’ll loose it, and we happen to be around a time in which a ton of Disney’s copyrights are set to expire and so they’re churning out remakes in order to be able to keep the copyrights on those properties, this is also the case for why we’ve gotten so many spider Man movies, Sony owned the copyrights but needed to use them or loose them and so they made the tobycguire and Andrew Garfield spiderman movies to basically hold the copyright till they we’re ready to do something better with it which was into the spiderverse, now not every remake is done for that reason but a lot of the time when we get a movie of a long irrelevant franchise revamped it’s because the company needed to make it to hold onto their copyright, that’s how we get stuff like the mrpeabody movie where no one on Earth fucking cared about or remembered mr Peabody but they made a movie anyway so that they don’t loose the rights, and the way our copyright system exists is as stated above a symptom of capitalism
