Reply to do u think this era of up and coming actors could fill the big shoes of legendary actors from the past? by we_are_ghetto
Maybe to the younger generations, but for someone like me not really. I’m sure later on in life when the ones we all know and love have gone, the newer generations are going to look at the ones you mentioned and say so. I really dig Evan Peters and Robert Pattinson has come to surprise me recently. Also Tom Holland for The Devil All The Time (which also had Pattinson)

Opinions vary. I said IMO for a reason.

Call me crazy but I think the Bates Motel in Psycho might be a motel, which OP doesn't want to hear about for some reason.

If you're interested in how hotels work I would not watch a fictional movie....?
But Eloise lives in a hotel, so anything Eloise - Eloise at the Plaza and Eloise at Christmastime are live action tv movies and then there's an animated tv show.
What's the problem with motels? Motels run the same as low-end hotels.

As much as I actually liked ZSJL... yeah, Man of Steel and BVS totally could've been less shitty.

Murder At The Gallop.
An adaptation of the Agatha Christie novel After The Funeral, Miss Marple ends up stumbling upon a mystery while out collecting for charity when she witnesses a man drop dead right in front of her. When she overhears the dead man's sister at the funeral remark that he was afraid that someone was trying to kill him and later discovers that same woman brutally murdered hours later, she decides to investigate when the entire family gathers again at the reading of the will.
The vast majority of the movie takes place at a hotel in the English countryside and in and around the hotel, where Miss Marple uses the public areas to eavesdrop and discover other such clues that would be useful to the investigation.
If you're willing to check out feature-length TV shows, then also check out ITV's Marple series which has some strong episodes set in hotels.
In The Body In The Library which was also the pilot, Miss Marple ends up getting involved in a murder case when a dead body is dumped in the library of her friend's country manor. Following some investigation to determine her identity, she learns that the victim was a dancing instructor at a seaside hotel, resulting in her staying there to investigate just how in the hell a complete stranger turns up dead several miles away.
In Bertram's Hotel, the entirety of the film takes place at a hotel. When Miss Marple checks into the hotel she becomes embroiled in the investigation when one maid is found murdered on the hotel's roof and another, who has heard of Miss Marple's reputation of helping others, implores her to help. A femme fatale, a nasty inheritance dispute, stolen artwork and a hidden Nazi also complicates things further.

Until Jurassic Park, Denver The Last Dinosaur owned dinosaur shows.

I feel like making a big budget 18th century pirate film will just invite unfair comparisons and be automatically labeled a "ripoff".

I think you're seeing comedy where there wasn't any intended. Boats to wait out the storm are a far more realistic way to survive events of this kind than spaceships would be. We simply don't have the capacity to move large numbers of people off planet and settle them elsewhere.

It started with Man of Steel being a shitty movie and then BvsSM was a shitty movie and it continued from there.

People not going to watch the DC movies involved in the cinematic universe killed the Snyderverse.
You can blame Covid for people not going to the theater, but since it didn't kill other cinematic universes, I don't think it fits.
​
Even if I was a fan of the Snyderverse, I would still not go to see the movies in theater, because Zack Snyder loves making re versions of his own movies that fix the mistakes, so what is the point?

COVID had nothing to do with the Snyderverse failing. They gave up on Snyder after BvS turned out to be a dumpster fire.
>ZSJL was put of the big screen
ZSJL was never going to be on the big screen. It's a four hour movie, and if that wasn't enough, all that extra runtime still only made it fractionally better than the mediocrity of Josstice League.

Creed: I tried to watch it but I think the plot is really too simple because my attention was at zero after less than an hour, also it was pretty predictive

Live action, because The Land Before Time had like 12 movies and there is Dinosaur and The Good Dinosaur, too.

A prequel would be sick, it would be cool if they did the story of the previous taxi driver. Tom cruise is getting older and I'm hoping deepfake technology starts taking over instead of the cgi de-aging. There is a man on Instagram named miles fisher that does some pretty sick tom cruise deepfakes, he would be ideal to play the role.
