Not really. Take a step back and you realize most popular movies are recycled ips and marvel or sequels.
If people wanted original stories we wouldn’t be on 90th marvel movie and 20th john wick.
Eh. Ever since i saw these mentally ill people who started crying during the lion king remake, i don’t belive that anymore. There are enough people who just watch everything with a disney logo on it.
I wish that were true but people go bonkers over copy pastes.

None of them are original, all of them are at best small iterations upon previous few. Majority of the people don’t seem to want something great and different. They want something safe and good-enough.
The only one I enjoyed was Branagh’s Cinderella. Good visuals, no weird messing with the story, just a straight up retelling, just with good acting and direction.
People want original stories. The recycled IP scheme is burnt out.

People often say that, but box office grosses tell a different story.
Yeah, that’s not the reason this one is failing. I think it’s much simpler… it looks terrible and the CG dwarves are disgusting.
There’s a difference between original story and original IP

Of the top 10 box office movies last year 9 were sequels, prequels or remakes. The exception was Wicked, as an adaptation of a very established IP.
I haven’t cared about any of their live-action remakes so far, but I have to admit I’m looking forward to the Lilo & Stitch one.
EDIT: And I just looked it up and apparently Jumba and Pleakley will appear human most of the time. Never mind!

They’re reselling the IP to the next generation of kids.
