The Digital Rocking Chair's insight:

Derek Thompson: "The problem for Hollywood isn’t that audiences are ignoring sequels. The problem for Hollywood is that audiences are ignoring everything that isn’t a sequel, adaptation, or reboot. The market for films based on stories that aren’t already famous is threadbare. These sort of stories exist in entertainment, but consumers, and particularly young consumers, are looking for them outside of darkened theaters."

The Digital Rocking Chair's insight:

Alisha Grauso: "Hollywood studios failed big in 2015 because they didn't follow a defining principle of storytelling: Know Your Audience."

Nathan Schultz's curator insight, November 25, 2015 4:50 PM

An entertaining opinion piece, author Alisha Grauso explains that one of the reasons why so many of the movies that were made in 2015 were box office disasters was because filmmakers did not pay enough attention to what audience members wanted to see.

The Steve Jobs movie, for example. The fact that the movie was released four years after the man's death, thereby missing the "nostalgia window" in which audiences might have cared enough about Jobs to want to see a movie about him, essentially means that the movie was made without audience interests in mind, which should always be the foremost concern when selling any product.
