It's the most psychotic method to finding movies. Now that the backrooms has worked, Hollywood execs can put it in their pitch deck for the next reddit inspired movie.

It's the same reason why we've only got superhero movies for two decades, even beyond Marvel. You can only make new IPs if the reason for producing the IP is that it's similar enough to an existing one. Which kind of kills the whole idea of fresh ideas.
