UmOk posted:Why can't the movie studios be considered part of the creative process? Should their artistic expression be blunted? if you think back to the golden age of hollywood the studios really were a part of the creative process in a very real way, so it's definitely possible. I guess if you want to go back to that, I mean I like a lot of those movies, but I don't think it would work today.

The perspective of a figure above and separated from day-to-day creation can be very valuable. It's why writers have editors, for instance. It ensures that questions like "What is this work?" and "How will its audience approach it?" are answered. It's unclear that studios can be counted on to answer them helpfully, but at least in some cases studio "meddling" does lead to a stronger result.

Studio execs are literal robots that subsist only on dollar bills and the dead dreams of artists. Robots, of course, are incapable of creative thought.

I think you'll find that robots can dream of electric sheep. poo poo, that's a good idea for a movie: a robot director trying to make something really good while facing robot discrimination. Hollywood will love it.

I've never flipped around on The Jeej, I've always found him ok at best. I kind of liked Super 8 because of what it was trying to recreate and because it had the army as vllains, something you barely see anymore.

JJ is really good at camera movement and geometry stuff. Yeah it's a little cheesy sometimes but it's just as likely to be great

I wouldn't call The Jeej great, or even good, at anything. He's the very definition of blandly adequate.

I hope Boyega gets to use his natural accent, but he probably won't. That poo poo really annoyed me in Pacific Rim.

HUNDU THE BEAST GOD posted:Especially since it was supposed to be a ragtag international bunch. For some reason Hunnam's accent is much worse in Pacific Rim than it ever was in Sons of Anarchy. It was nice to hear Elba in his natural voice though, and a white American protagonist is probably the price we had to pay to get an Asian lead actress.

Jeej is a competent director of adequate, derivative action movies that you can't think that too hard about. He's Renny Harlin. Every once in a while he can make a Long Kiss Goodnight land but for every one of those there's a couple of Die Hard 2s. He's a guy you bring in to make a third Mission Impossible movie.
