I mean Jlaw is kind of in a class by herself and she is obviously a draw but we have been bombarded with so many cloned films about dystopian futures with kids battling blah blah blah. I mean, I can't tell you what the hell happened in Maze Runner, Divergent, any Hunger Games sequel or any other YA film. They're all the same in some ways. It's a tired theme and it's just time to move on from that, imo. But that's what always happens, don't? Studios suck everything they can while the trend is hot and fresh, and, then, once that the public is tired, they move to the next trend, it happened with the YA fantasy trend that started with HP, with the Vampire trend that started with Twilight, and, now, it's happening again, the thing is that only the movies that started the trend will be remembered in some years, HP/Twilight/THG, the rest will be forgotten faster than the public forgot Avengers: Age of Ultron Studios just need to find a new trend, and the YA genre will be hot again 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grey ghost Posted March 19, 2016 Share Posted March 19, 2016 As some others have pointed out, YA burned out quick because all the movies have a similar look, feel and theme: good looking teens live in a dystopia future and have to rebel to free society. The costumes, sets, and actors usually look interchangeable. You might as well have a single franchise with Divergent/Maze Runner/Hunger Games where they all blend in together and the quality drops as the series progresses.

mahnamahna Posted March 19, 2016 Share Posted March 19, 2016 Well, $250 million+ appears to be a near-lock for Zootopia, so long as it doesn't drop more than 60-65% next weekend. Allegiant bombed... not surprised. People are either making sure they see Zootopia or saving for BvS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ethan Hunt Posted March 19, 2016 Share Posted March 19, 2016 *sigh* it really bothers me when people put the hunger games on the same pedestal as all the other YA stuff. The Hunger Games created all of the current YA trends 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
