Agreed. I think if it’s not literally save the world they think it won’t sell, when some of the best movies I’ve seen this year have revolver mostly around personal relationships. Love, drama, tension. There are millions of stories out there that are ready for the big screen, they just don’t involve the end of the world so Hollywood doesn’t seem interested.
Guess that’s why my money keeps going to A24 and my indie theater.
Hollywood also does it because they have no idea of raising the stakes in films besides “we have to save the world”
They have no clue how to write a relatable story anymore or how to imbue importance into everyday things like Studio Ghibli does.
