Date: July 31st, 2021 10:24 PM Author: Self-centered parlor persian Krull was pretty far out there. Early 80s had a number of cheesy fantasy movies. Beast master, death stalker, Conan, legend, Ator, Sword and Sorcerer. Stuff like that does not get made anymore. Need more than a small budget indie for the set design, costumes etc... and not studio is willing to hang out big money for kooky, niche stuff like those.

Date: July 31st, 2021 10:30 PM Author: bonkers theater it's a shame I think they could still be made, the budgets even in today's dollars are like 1/10th of stuff like the Marvel movies that cost 400M |

Date: July 31st, 2021 10:42 PM Author: Self-centered parlor persian Those low-mid budget movies are really rare now and usually exist for proven auteurs, not for genre stuff. I think there would be a pretty decent market, though, for a new (not some remake) high fantasy movie that took itself as seriously as those 80s ones. People are hungry for something genuine without all the winks and tongue-in-cheek stuff. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=4890421&forum_id=2#42877551) |
