I was looking at my Goodreads account and I've read around 300+ sci-fi books. There are TONS of stories that could be awesomely adapted to TV. Why do they insist on rehashing the same old shit?
Cuz Hollywood is dying or going through a dark age. No faith in trying new things. Complete profit driven cynicism from the top. An interest in only making substantial profits when entertainment is probably best run as a low-profit industry so that risks can be taken in order to enrich and progress culture.
How does anyone else feel about the quality of writing they’ve been seeing lately? I feel like I can detect a drop in quality over the past couple of years. At first I thought it was all the work done over the pandemic but I feel like it’s persisting.
