When an original movie or property comes out, nobody goes to watch it. The people complaining about the lack of originality certainly don’t go watch. The last half dozen original movies that Disney has released have bombed, regardless of good ratings. People are paying to see remakes and reboots, which is why they keep making them.

Nobody who complains actually goes to support the original films

The last half dozen original movies that Disney has released got a fraction of the promotion that they gave the sequels.

Doubtful, im a dad and my kid is always well aware of movies coming out. He watches them all and sees the ads. Recently he’s been obsessed with elio. You know, the original movie getting shit on because they dared make the main character special needs, therefore “woke”.
