Please tell me I am not alone in being sick of these movies.  the first one was a fun little one off film but you know what, not everything needs to be a franchise.  Why do we need more of these?  I didn't even see the last one.

Why does it seem like there is nothing but sequels and remakes coming out of Hollywood these days?

I really miss the days when even most blockbuster films were not sequels, I am just on sequel overload at the moment due to the Marvel films,Pixar doing nothing but sequels these days, and it seeming like everything else is a reboot.  I would so love to see one film that isn't a sequel or tied into a series of films, comics, or books.  Is it too much to ask that something different comes out once in a while?

You know why your box office returns are so bad Hollywood?  it's not because of piracy, it's because I feel like I have seen everything you have to show me and tickets are insanely over priced.  Maybe I wouldn't be so picky if tickets still cost $4.50 like they did when I was a kid, but I am not paying three times that much just to see yet another film that doesn't tell a full story on it's own and requires me to buy a bunch of comics and other films and watch TV to follow what the heck is happening.  it's not a good value for my limited funds!
