Hollywood is so bankrupt for ideas, gotta remake and sequelize everything

It was probably more work to make a script that works as a sequel to Gladiator than it would have been to make an original movie based in Rome. But then they don't get the name recognition and all the free money that comes with it.

So posted right at the same time as this was another trailer for a new movie.

This has comments, the other doesn't.

Guess what gets people's attention? Shit they can recognize and have some idea what it is and will be.

I see this time and again.

I'm not even disagreeing with you, just please help comment on the others and help them get noticed.

Non sequels are being made.
