The difference between mainstream and independent- Mainstream films tend to come from major film companies like Disney or Warner bros and will normally have high budgets, A-list actors, large use of CGI and large amounts of marketing.

This can be seen with the  Netflix series Stranger Things where rather than losing the concept of genre all together, have hybridized many genres into its tv show in an attempt to reach a larger audience. This is due to the fact that Netflix are entirely concerned with maximizing profits and must be as appealing to mass audience as possible.

 3 key points Jon Favreau chose to make the live action movie in CGI as he thought that travelling to the Indian jungle was impractical and wouldn't have the intended "dream-like"quality Wanted to test the limits of the new technology and defended this by comparing it to Oscar winner Life of Pi and highest grossing movie of all time Avatar Uses a star studded cast in order to promote the movie with actors like |Bill Murray, Ben Kinglsy, Christopher Walken, Idreas Elba and Scarlett Johansson  the two competing companies are using remakes of old classics in order to try and attract the largest audience to them over they're competitors and using actors as the driving force behind the movies.
