As a former WoW nerd I am definitely looking forward to the Warcraft movie.

Don't let the naysayers fool you, this list is going to be a lot of fun. Just because you didn't list any films where the actors sniff their own farts the entire movie doesn't mean that these movies suck.

Movies have turned TV-like with these franchises. Just have to wait a year between episodes rather than a week.




To be fair, you can call it Cinema returning to it's roots. Cinema started out as serials. There are like 25-30 "Blondie" movies alone, made from the late 30's to the 50's. It's not like serials are a new concept. You are bringing huge stories to life, telling a tale that can't be told in two hours, or with one film. Marvel is setting up a universe, and has multiple properties existing in it. It's cool that they pull it off so well. Franchises though aren't new, it's just finally they started making sequels and spin-offs that actually worked.

so basically its not just comic book movies that are going to get irrational hate, its any big budget film that has a hint of sci fi or fantasy.

Not at all. It's a bunch of predictable re-treads.

So, is nobody going to point out the fact that the new Bond movie is not on this list?

I might see one movie on that list. Hollywood popcorn flicks don't really excite me.

For popcorn entertainment this is very true. But I doubt you are going to see a franchise film win at the Oscars anytime soon. Studios will still release great, non-franchise movies every year. The trick is to find them because they usually go straight to a limited release and stay there for months.
