Aside from the gigantic budget popcorn flicks of Michael bay and all the comic book movies, you'd think they try to spark up some new material. I'm not saying get rid of the popcorn flicks in their entirety, but maybe space them out longer, lower the production budgets, and increase the quality of the stories. in an era of streaming and in home media capabilities I doubt theaters stand a chance in the next generations.


The Shallows-17 mil budget, 55 mil domestic, 63 foreign
47 Meters Down-5 mil budget, 11.5 mil domestic(opening weekend)

I'm not suggesting they don't make money. I'm just being a picky movie critic. Shallows = hot girl stuck on a rock while shark stalks her. 47 Meters = hot girls trapped in cage while sharks stalk them. Meh. I know Hollywood is all about money. If The Shallows wasn't as successful as it was financially, I'd be skeptical to think these next two shark movies would get the studios' attention they have.

But to keep the post about the thread, Meg does actually look like it has a good back story to it and I think Statham can do a kick arse job. Ruby Rose won't be too bad to look at either.
