Also most of the movies you listed did fine, with last two being massive hits.
Because they don't let the best/good movies rest in peace.
Bettlejuice 2 was just a cash grab (didn't need to happen) same as most of those other movies (they just re-release old animated movies into live action, look at the failure that is Snow White)
Lilo and Stitch had a movie budget of 100 Mil (I'm sure they used half of that on themselves and not the movie) but only made Worldwide Box Office $977,626,941.... very close to making the money back but just a bit short.
M3gan 2.0 was decent, even if they changed genres lol.
Bring her back, I just started and eh, didn't see much yet.
Death of a Unicorn, mainly watching this because it's an A24 movie. I know not all of their releases are bangers but I do like the strange/weirdness they dive into sometimes with their movies. I can stomach Jenna Ortega better in this movie rather than Scream or her Wednesday show I didn't watch (just the way she looks in the show keeps me away, I want the OG Wednesday)
Superman, I'm still around the beginning (still didn't continue the movie yet)
But yeah. Directors don't know what to make anymore so they just reach back into their movie capsule to grab the movies that were a hit/banger etc back in the day and then they bring them back to try and milk it for all its worth.
They don't have any fresh ideas (most of the time) and want to rely on the easy picks(movies people are attached to, the cult classics etc) they know will bring in some money. And then we get crappy releases because they figure, "it's a franchise/series people love, it'll make the money no matter what and we don't have to try so hard" but they fail most of the time (if not every time)
977,626,941 > 100 Mil by a lot.
I've totally checked out from them too. Haven't turned on a TV since 2009, let alone seen a movie other than the few times a girlfriend wanted to watch something. Usually don't even know a movie exists unless people are talking about how bad it is on the internet, but I don't listen to that either, just see vids with titles that I scroll past.
I don't know the other movies you mentioned, and I don't know the Sonic games -- but, I very much liked this movie and Sonic 2 as well. Sonic 3 is on my shopping list, but I don't have it yet.
Maybe they should focus on story instead of political agendas.
Even when a movie is ok now, its because it wasn't offensively bad, that's how low the bar has fallen.
COVID, strikes, poor directors, poor story-writing, spiralling costs.... It's a perfect storm.
There is no both sides on this, they let Katherine Kennedy just wipe out multiple franchises, almost as if destruction was the point.
Hollywood became a hyper monoculture under Obama when the left throught they were the end of history, that's when the death spiral began.
