So I thought The Creator was brilliant. I watched it in the cinema, thoroughly enjoyed it and was gobsmacked when I learned it’s budget was only $79 million. It looks better than some films I’ve seen that cost three times that.
But apparently, while it may make that back, it’s unlikely to even earn $100 million globally.
So the answer to the question of why Hollywood churns out the same shite over and over is that, currently, tragically, that is what the masses want to spend their money on.
And that makes me sad.
The Sprinkler Sprinkled (1896) is a remake of The Sprinkler Sprinkled (1895). It’s not something that’s been going on “almost as long as there have been movies”, it’s been going on exactly as long as there have been movies.
Okay, you win the smartest person award. Is it everything you’d hoped for?
Edit: Okay, I may have been a little harsh here, but correcting what was a very minor part of my comment which was intentionally generalised was both unnecessary and rude.
Insecure much?
Your reply added nothing to the discussion, other than pointing out that you’re the smartest person in the room. You’re the person who waits for someone to say something, then pushes your glasses up your nose and says “Actually…”
Your first reply here doesnt add anything either.
