well why not posted:

10 Cloverfield Lane fits the 'mid budget' tier pretty well.

That movie had to be named Cloverfield to be made, that's low.

When people say mid budget movies have died do they really mean that there are less dramas being made now then in the 70s? I think that's a case of partially TV taking up the mantle and audiences being undemanding and claiming there aren't enough new films, but going to see comic book movie #367 anyway. Besides come Oscar season there's still plenty of bait films

Are you sure people arn't going because something like 90% are lovely remake/reboot movies? Like suicide squad's thrilling climax is keeping people in seats.
