Cmon guys, Hazbin Hotel has Ike 3 seasons out
K-Pop Demon Hunters was like that. Nobody but Netflix believed in it, and that's why there was barely any merchandise for its first Christmas. Companies would not get on board. Now stores are covered with stuff.
Hot take: thing that has happened organically since the dawn of entertainment will continue to happen organically

There was this greek guy named Odysseus. Its a pretty old story but it might make a good movie or two, or ten, or twenty, or more haha

Execs only want safe remakes
IP that is newer than 50-60 years old? Unpossible!
It would be nice. I'm working on a project to revitalise what I feel has been lacking, in terms of British cinema, however I'm in over my head sometimes. It is a nice thought, to create something iconic like the media of yesteryear, and hopefully more people have this in mind (than the regurgitated same old films rehashed every year).
the bext big IP to be owned by Disney and made into an addition at disneyland and disneyworld and epcott, and its only purpose was to sell skins on fortnite and other skinslop games and a monopoly board and a magic set and some FOMO toy collectible set. an ip which is just a vehicle for consumerism and individualism.
this is me being excited: yippeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee i cant wait to consume all of the content!!
but seriously the next big IP revolution is already here and its predecessor is the entire SCP wiki. And no corporation can own it. Thank fucking god. Hopefully people keep making art as CC BY SA. You can make movies with it too: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/glnc/scp-gallionic
Harry Potter is the one that comes to mind. Also Game of Thrones if you’d like. Both really blew up, have spin offs and staying power. Harry Potter has toys, video games, and amusement parks.
I was about to bring up those as well. The next closest that didn't really hit the "spin-off" level was the hunger games, but definately could.
Don't know why you're downvoted. This is exactly where my mind went too. Nobody said they had to be good, just new.
