I kind of agree, kind of don't agree.

The thing is a movie can be successful without being the next Twilight / Harry Potter / Hunger Games; movie execs just need to set their expectations, their budgets, and their whole mindset appropriately. There's nothing wrong with making a movie that's aimed pretty much solely at the teen marketplace, especially if you can execute well on it and make it pretty cheaply. The problem comes when you don't make your budget with that in mind and when you have a wildly insane understanding of how big something is going to be. It's bad business sense more than anything.

(Although that having been said, I think it's also worth pointing out that, at this point, anyone who is being realistic about a project with that kind of scale / appeal / demographic logic would probably be way, way more focused on making it a TV show; it probably wouldn't ever come close to being a movie if they were being realistic about it)

Yeah. A TV show would have been better. Though I can not figure out why. It just seems like it would work better as a television series if it were aimed at teens. But then I am not a teenager.

TV shows are way, way cheaper than movies. Wayyyyy cheaper. Especially teen action dramas. And also they tend to run for a lot longer, IE more product. And in this day and age, once a movie's out of a theater, the distribution for that VS a tv show is not really all that different, and I feel like it's easier to get people to watch a TV show than it is to get them to watch something in a theater. So that's a few ways TV shows maybe make more sense.

And also they're really a LOT cheaper. Not sure if I mentioned that.

I'm surprised they didn't go the tv series route TVS, TW etc have been on for a while so it's about time for something new. The characters would work better with some time to flesh them out too.

The reviews I've heard have said it's just bad, that they spend so long on exposition you just get bored. So I think that might be the main problem.
