(Anonymous) 2012-09-08 11:38 am (UTC)(link)I think it's for two reasons. First is that there are only so many stories, and Shakespeare wrote them all anyhow. So of course after a while you get bored with the same old tropes. (Mind I never get bored with my favourite Shakespeare plays..)
Secondly, I think genuinely that films aren't as good because everything has to make the most money now, have you noticed how all major films are rated toward a teen audience? They are made for 12 year olds. So where Total Recall back in the day was an 18 certificate, and it was exciting and felt different, the remake is a 12A certificate, and feels meh. This seems to be a real trend. Not saying films didn't always have to make money, but there wasn't the same need to appeal to 12 year olds all of the time. I think this applies to television and books as well, everything has become bland, and just a bit samey, if something makes money a lot of copies come along.
