Aliens. It’s run it’s course.

Terminator can have a good entry or two, they just haven’t found creative worth a shite for it.

Predator has a lot of untapped potential.

Dr. Who......Provisionaly.

I'm interested in seeing what Russel T. Davies does when he takes over.




I'm willing to give Davies a shot but I fear he may have popped his cap when it comes to Dr. Who. If he can't bring it back... it needs to go fallow for a decade. They have not just burned that show to ground they've salted the ashes.

I've seen nothing driven into the ground more thoroughly than Marvel.

It all has a "sameness" feel to it. Admittedly it's been more polished and consistent than both DC and Star Wars.

But it's just too damn much and has worn out its welcome with me and I don't think I can sit for another one.



I am very much the old man yelling but i just hate on CGI'ed every action movie is now. The MCU is worst of it.

It's the same with Spider-Man both franchises are overused, but blame audiences for that

exactly, but judging by the upvotes some mfers on the movie/tv board cant count. im not saying some of the batman reboots werent made well, im saying its one storyline that could stand to be shelved for 20 or so years.

I'd probably say Bond, and hope that we get out of this shitty woke phase in the next 20 years.

agree; I thought about Star Wars, but they've actually done some new stuff that goes off in its own direction without re-writing the old stuff.
