‘Powerpuff Girls’ Live-Action Series - Officially Dead

Why does it seem like all new corporate-made media sucks in Current Year, with few exceptions?
Corporate heads only thinking in terms of IP and creative heads hating the projects they are working on (to be fair most creative heads today have shit ideas and are shitty people in general regardless if the project is something they want to work on or not). And also ESG.

Because there is zero talent behind it.

The people who created PPG had talent. They had to in order to make a product that has lasted for decades and people still remember fondly. This is what people call "lindy" effect, it's lasted because they keep producing good content of it for so long.

But now, nostalgia is a big factor in production and many of the original people aren't involved with it. So we have fans of the show who know it but can't create anything good from it aside from mediocre fanfiction. Any mediocre writer can make a story of how Buttercup gets a boyfriend (or a girlfriend), but very few can write a 2 hours long movie with adventure, mystery, and action.

Ok, I'm (unfortunately) used to much-delayed soft reboots being written by people who think the earlier incarnations of the series are too cringe for their hip, modern political sensibilities, and that attitude working its way into the show. That's industry standard at this point.
But to put Buttercup's quips shitting on the original cartoon's costumes/"whitewashing" in the actual trailer? Are you just marketing to fans who remember the original but are also insecure enough to pretend it's cringe now to fit in with the right crowd? Even the most cynical producer knows to get them in with nostalgia first and then spring the Current Year politics on them, no wonder CW canned this.

I don't know if this is real or not, but holy shit if this was the quality it looks so cheap, it looks like a fucking porn parody or a shitty fan film.

Good riddance this show was canned because I'm genuinely curious who this was marketed towards, it doesn't even help that there was a reason that show was animated.
 
That one at least somewhat respects the OG IP. Far better than the self-insert 'remake'. And hilariously, never made it to the US.

Its up there with the unreleased Fantastic Four movie.
I heard originally they were gonna make it similar to the original until CN told them to make it different. And originally Utonium's son was gonna look more like Dexter.
