Let’s talk about IP (WITH GRAPHS!) There are a couple of common assumptions about IP that I’ve never seen proven. So I decided to go full on Kornacki to determine statistically A) Is IP taking over TV? B) Does a show based on IP have a better chance at success? Curious?

Back and on my shit with statistics. After the summer of 'disappointing' Box Offices I decided to look at some stats for long-running franchises and determine what a reasonable person may expect from the 32nd entry in a series.

I doubt the execs who greenlit a mid-budget drag racing movie about DVD theft knew they were kickstarting a multi-million dollar franchise. Star Wars wasn't made so they could sell Chewbacca slippers. You don't put the cart before the horse. Make a good movie and then make money

You have to take a chance on new ideas and original worlds. Franchises may be able to keep you afloat but they offer diminishing returns at best. Each time you go to that well you dilute its strength. Relying on them is choosing death by a thousand cuts.

Alright folks, this site has been going down hill for a while but I think it's finally to a point where I'm gonna taper off into dormancy. Migrating over to bluesky. You can find me as @.mapgar there.

Still can’t get over the fact there are people who pay for Twitter.

Six Feet Under is one of the most underrated TV shows of all time. Please people watch it.
Six Feet Under: The Complete Series is coming to Netflix on November 1

Generally speaking the reason X-men adaptations suffer is because at its heart it is a soap opera dependent on long form storytelling.

The best X-men story to adapt would be Mutant Massacre but you can't do that in a film.... Now as a season long TV arc. THAT could be amazing.
