RE: Parasite & The Potential Decline in International Cinema

in #film6 years ago

I've noticed that trend in international productions. Adding elements of the Hollywood movie style. I think they've been successful because of that. It's valid. The danger is that it becomes a pattern repeated by everyone. For example, in international television series like the Spanish La Casa de Papel, which is a success because it exploits those elements of American film and television. But Hollywood, when it sees a successful international production, what it does is buy the rights to make its own remakes, versions, etc. with famous actors and set in their lifestyle. And their language! We have already seen how they have brought out (bad) versions of excellent international films or series. An example, coming from the Asian cinema, the movie Oldboy by Pak Chan-uk. They made an unnecessary remake that never lived up to the original. Parasitos, I think they are already in the process of making a television series with American actors. The system has already begun its process, buy, adapt to their language, beautiful actors and try, repeat the success.
