Why Franchises Won't Die, Actor Transformations, Standing Ovation Season, The Long Walk, Conjuring: Last Rites, Wednesday
On this episode of The Hollywood Outsider podcast, does anything ever truly end anymore? In a world where it’s all about IP, even when an ending is nailed, the first thing people think is: when is it coming back? And when an ending is junk, maybe give it a few years and reboot it to try again? Dexter: Resurrection and Conjuring: Last Rites are just two of many examples. So this week we dive into why won't franchises die?
Also this week, it's standing ovation season, the Rock undergoes a massive physical transformation, reviews of The Long Walk and Wednesday Season 2, plus our thoughts on recent releases The Conjuring: Last Rites, Unknown Number: The High School Catfish, and Foundation.
