A new study suggests that people enjoy original movies more than franchise films.
The research indicates that viewers find unique stories more engaging and refreshing compared to sequels or reboots. This might be because original films offer new characters, plots, and settings, which can be more exciting than seeing the same faces and tales over and over again. Interestingly, the study also found that while franchises often have bigger budgets and marketing campaigns, they don’t always guarantee audience satisfaction.
I think it’s nice to see something new once in a while.
Moreover, the data showed that even though franchise movies tend to dominate box offices, they don’t necessarily leave a lasting impression on viewers. People seem to remember and cherish original films longer. For instance, while blockbuster series like “Avengers” or “Star Wars” are popular, standalone movies like “Inception” or “Get Out” often receive more critical acclaim and fan loyalty.
Sometimes, it’s like choosing between a familiar comfort food and trying an exotic dish; both have their appeal but in different ways.
In conclusion, while franchises will likely continue to be a big part of Hollywood, there’s a growing appreciation for fresh and innovative storytelling in cinema.
