The plot lines are dead. Hollywood has zero originality in plots lately. They think consumers go to theaters to see special effects on a big screen, but the reality is the more special effects a movie has the more dull to non-existent the plot is.
Saw The Abyss[1] at the big screen recently, and that too held up very well in terms of special effects, despite being 35 years old and breaking CGI ground when it was released.
