Watch non-franchise movies. Some pretty good ones out there, if you can believe it.

Reply to Brie Larson, what went wrong? by [deleted]
She's much better suited for character-driven indie projects than blockbuster fare. Studios often make the mistake of thinking the two things directly translate (see Trevorrow, Zhao) but they often don't.

Forbidden Planet knocks me out for some reason. I guess it's the perfect combination of escapist, atmospheric, and kind of boring.

Okay but Blanchett was way better. No disrespect to Michelle who's a legend.

Reply to Hitchcock's Influence and Place in "The Canon" by logicalfallacy234
In addition to great suspense, his movies are also very Freudian and layered in way most middle-brow entertainment isn't.
Like, on the surface Shadow of a Doubt is about a girl suspecting her uncle of being a serial killer, but on a subconscious level it's about a girl struggling with a taboo attraction she has to her uncle.
Hitchcock was a real sicko in a fun way.
