I didn't know it existed, and I'm a movie guy.

I'll speculate it has a lot to do with all the time elapsed between original and (sounds awful) sequel - the person who designed those costumes might have died 20 years before the sequel, and the old ones would be unlikely to fit even the same actors after all that time, not to mention someone else entirely.

That kind of gap between productions would be disasterous.

3-D will wow people for a few years, VR will take over, then who knows.

Special effects work for a key demographic that content can't touch: the witless. Bawdy comedies can still work, but new ideas are scarce in Hollywood, and the same recycled sh*t only works on younger audiences. Plus, everyone's become so damn thin-skinned they're about to declare laughing a hate crime.

It's the last gasp of cinema. Just like cinema became the killer of radio, apps are about to deliver the death knell to cinematic relevance.
