Franchises and sequels dominated the 2024 box office. The only movie in the top 15 not based on an existing film was "Wicked," which was based on a Broadway musical.
I love the juxtaposition of this with the comment saying they prefer movies over shows. I like that people enjoy stories differently.
I completely understand them liking self-contained, complete stories, but I’m definitely in your camp. I like shows that I can immerse myself in and really get to know how the characters and universe tick. That’s probably why I gravitate towards sci-fi and fantasy. To me, the worldbuilding and lore is the point.
This is why I typically enjoy shows more than movies. It’s pretty hard to make me care about the characters in 90 min.

It’s amazing when they do though. Fargo is 90 minutes, I love short movies that are just so good
I didn’t know they even make movies that short anymore.
