Forget the writer's strike or the latest actor's strike; Hollywood faces a bigger problem -- two-parter movies.
Similarly, a two-part film ensures that the first half will rake in a tremendous amount of money and leave viewers eagerly awaiting the finale. Even if the second half doesn’t perform as well as the first, as was the case with Hunger Games, the studio still makes a fortune. Catching Fire Parts 1 and 2 had a collective production cost of $285 million and grossed $1.413 billion at the worldwide box office. Financially, the tactic makes sense.
Personally, I appreciate concise storytelling. Some of the greatest films of all time have a runtime of around two hours without sacrificing character, story, or action: Raiders of the Lost Ark, Star Wars, ET, Casablanca, Rear Window, Mad Max: Fury Road, Jurassic Park, Aliens, and more.
