I think I'd already seen that link before here.

 

So you don't think I don't care :tflaugh

Hmm. More crap behind the scenes. I understand what's going on in Hollywood right now, but seriously, it's just a friggin' movie. Do the work or don't, someone will always be there to fill your spot.

 

Welcome to reality.

I know I'm not a mod, but this thread is about the drama behind the scenes of a specific movie, if you want to talk about the strike, threads exist for that already, and, being pretty well as in the middle of it as any non-WGA member can be*, I'd be happy to discuss it with you.

Are you a writer Hobbes? Or do you just not have anything better to do Monday?

I am an aspiring screenwriter, yeah...but on the internet, who isn't?

I was actually using that as another example, I wasn't making this about the strike. I was trying to say that with everything in Hollywood as it is, it's all ridiculous. It's movies and tv. If it's good, we'll watch it, if not, well then at least you tried.

 

Does anyone remember when movies and shows were made for the love of the craft? The epics of the 40s and 50s? Etc. Today's movies and shows are nothing more than a product to be moved.

Hollywood has always, always, always been about making money. It's easier to look back on all the great movies from a bygone era, because we don't remember all the crap that also came out. But it did come out. And someday someone's going to be saying, "Whatever happened to Hollywood making great movies like The Departed and Brokeback Mountain?" because they won't remember White Chicks and Deck The Halls.

 

There's no less love of the craft today than their was in the past, and there was no less love of money in the past than their is today.

Good points, I have to agree.
