Imagine sitting in the movie theater watching previews and on the screen comes sweet Dora, from Dora the Explorer, but she doesn't look the same. Instead of that purple backpack, she is now carrying rifles. Dora has grown up and become a hunter. Her life has turned into First Blood, but instead of hunting county sheriffs she is hunting monkeys and foxes, like her former friends Swiper and Boots. This is an option for the future of movies, maybe not that extreme, but something along those lines.
One thing is certain, no matter where you live, how much money you have, or how old you are you have seen at least one movie. Movies seem to have withstood the test of time, so it is safe to say that people around the world will still be watching them in the many many years to come. Over the past ninety years movies have changed entirely from the actors, to what they are wearing, and even the sets on which they are filmed. As people change it is obvious that the things those people make will change, it's called progression. But it seems that people in this day and age cannot come up with good, original ideas for films. Substance has been thrown out the window in movies released in the past ten years, as compared to movies from the 1920s and thereafter. Now when you step into a movie theater, there will be at least one preview for an action movie where everything blows up or gets shot. While those movies make a lot of money, they will not be winning any Academy Awards anytime soon. Granted, there are many movies that make millions of dollars that are critically acclaimed. But what, or who, is at the root of these horrific movies you ask? The answer is obvious; the studios.
