The review of spiderman and transendence is really brilliant. I love these guys. Its not like they are rocket scientists. They are just kinda smart. Its sort of amazing that a room with three smart guys in it can effectively identify the common problems with movie making today, but these companies with hundreds of millions can’t get three smart guys in a room to figure things out.
I acknowledge that part of the problem is that the redletter guys want to watch a good movie and the studio execs want to make profitable movies. So the studio folks are therefore making really good trailers and then cobbling together a movie afterwards… But for gods sake in a world with social media, do these studios not know that you can’t produce a turd and expect everyone to go to the film anyway.
