They're motivated by profit, not looking for trouble. Sometimes they might make movies that are "different", but those are often risky, and risks can fail as well as succeed big time. When economic times are bad, even Hollywood suffers, and they're not motivated to make big gambles. Well, can you blame Hollywood? They’re motivated by profit, not looking for trouble.

Not just because they rerun the same old plots, but all too often they reshoot the exact same movie. The reason is simple: Hollywood is divided between the "safe profit" crowd and the "social statement" crowd (Avatar tried to be both, and had plot holes you could drive a truck through). The social statement crowd want to lecture to their audience. The safe profit crowd want to tell the audience exactly what they want to hear. No one is willing to take chances, because the loses would be in the multi millions. Hollywood has been out of ideas for years.

I think it was after that film that Clancey vowed never to let Hollywood touch one of his books again. At least not without his input into the final script...
