I mean, think about it, King Kong?!?! a rerun from the 19-somethings. Sure, it was great. But where's the originality? Right now, they have to use asian directors to come up with new concepts..
First come Aliens in '86, then we saw a slew of copy cat movies up till now..Like the Cave and others.
Then came Disaster movies , we saw a lot of Disaster movies about cvolcano , earth quake Tornado.
Then came Seven, after which all moves tried to imitate that dark lighting , decayed trend up until now in "the Machinist" movie
Then came the Matrix, after which all moves tried to imitate that Slow motion and rotating Camera technique
Then came the Blaire Witch project.Then all directors tried to imitate that "Straying camera" feel....
Now comic book trend like Hellboy, Underworld , The league of Extraordinary Gentlemen + gothic trend and Old rerun , old remakes of popular movies
Next is what?
