How about watching an original movie or show with an original plot that isn't a hackneyed rehash of old ideas? How about that instead? Christ.
Fargo and Legion were both fantastic. Let the Leftovers Chef cook.
Ehh, I'm cynical about this with Hollywood too (Disney, Marvel, etc), but I'm hoping this is more of an extension of the franchise than a re-hash.
That being said, I'm sure I will be burned by it: it doesn't get an immediate mass of viewers and then is cancelled without a resolve. Rinse and repeat.
Both are possible....
Something I’ve started doing lately is watching movies from the 1930s and earlier. It’s a very different vibe.
Also, foreign movies. Night Watch is weird.
Not as far back as the 1930s but 1949's Kind Hearts and Coronets is very good.
