It's a trend we've seen time and time again, and despite countless blog posts and twitter feeds complaining about it, reboots and sequels are here to stay. Hollywood bigwigs love cashing in on properties that have been deemed successful in the past, based on a guaranteed built-in audience ready to flock back to cinemas the second a number 2 or a subtitle is added onto the title of a film they already love. We're used to sequels by now, but over the last few years franchise filmmaking has become the name of the game. Studios are clamoring to create interwoven universes (thanks in no small part to the monumental success of Marvel Studios) spread across multiple films. They not only yield high box office returns, but insure continuous cash flow across multiple platforms like video games, toys, novelizations, and more. Now, we've seen that studios are a bit less keen on rebooting properties that have become stagnant, and instead opt in to developing sequels that act as quasi-reboots, offering insurance to moviegoers that the films that have come before are still canon, they're just being retooled for new generations by telling follow-up stories set within the same continuity. Over the next couple years, we'll see multiple films use this method in an attempt to reinvigorate movies from years gone by. Michael Bay will be "rebooting" his Transformers franchise with a fourth film next year that tells a new story with new characters but avoids the pesky task of starting from square one and simply takes place after the initial trilogy. Other films will be following suit, including Terminator 5 (which is still in development, potentially from Thor: The Dark World director Alan Taylor), Jurassic World (slated for release on June 14, 2015 from up and coming director Colin Trevorrow) and Star Wars: Episode VII (which arrives December 18, 2015 from JJ Abrams). Zack Snyder's upcoming Batman Vs. Superman (July 17, 2015) will act as a sequel to Man of Steel and effectively reboot Batman for a new shared universe; while Bryan Singer's X-Men: Days of Future Past (May 23, 2014) will not only be a sequel to both the original X-Men films and X-Men: First Class, but is rumored to wipe the murky X-Men slate clean and allow the franchise to continue more smoothly. For this weekend's weigh-in, we'd like to turn our sights to these future blockbusters and ask, what film are you most (and least) excited for? Do you think semi-reboots, obtained via sequels, are a good idea? Or should studios learn to leave these properties alone? Let us know in the comments below!
