The worst thing about Josh is that you guys just won't shut up about him every time he's on an episode.

Max Landis overeggs the pudding a bit but he is generally ok. I don't mind him too much in the Double Down BotW. The worst part isn't when he's egging Rich on though, they're all doing that. The worst part is when he tries some diabetes inducing "Oh I only got through this with the help of *my friends*" at the end of the episode. Josh is also fine. Not great, but fine.

Even low budget bad movies can sometimes be really profitable. Accidentally make an underground classic for zero dollars and earn a couple million and get invited to nerd gatherings for years

lovely low budget movies only need lovely earnings to turn a profit. Or the whole thing's a scam or tax dodge or something. You spend 4 million on a lovely horror movie, it's garbage and makes 2 million. You spend 3 million on a made for TV family feel good drama, it makes 5 million. You spend 6 million on a low budget talking animal movie, it makes 6 million. As long as you are overall turning a profit, just throw poo poo at the wall and see what sticks. And maybe one day that 5 million dollar horror movie you put together becomes a runaway cult classic and you make like 100 million. Or film in Canada and be pretty much paid by the government to produce garbage at a loss to both you and the province in order to keep some crew and vfx guys employed and say you're creating jobs and growing the economy until the next province over offers a slightly better deal so you move there instead. Race to the bottom!

DO IT TO IT posted:Len kabesinski looked uncomfortable the entire discussion he seems both an awkward person in general, the kind of person who would be really motivated to crank out lovely movies as part of his artistic vision, and also just not as on board with making fun of other people's sincere efforts. he did try to force the rlm guys to say nice things about the films they watched i bet he teaches karate to low income kids in parks, for free, because he's a nice guy who loves karate

just rewatched a bit of the Double Down ep Max Landis is suitably funny, clearly understands the RLM style of humor, and fits in well with the guys in other words he's the exact opposite of josh

When you enter a new tax bracket all of your taxable income is not in that bracket. Why the gently caress is everyone so ignorant of taxes? Anyway that movie received huge tax breaks possibly to the point that the government paid them to make that movie, but it had nothing to do with what dumbass jack said.

When Rich looks at the back of the box for Double Down for help and Max says "Why are you looking? There is no help for you there. There is no God for you, Rich Evans!" I loving lost my poo poo. That's a perfect RLM style joke.

You're confusing two tax schemes here. A movie that loses a ton of money offsets the taxes that a studio would have to pay on movies that make money (this is the first tax scheme). This was a lot easier to do in the 80s, before some of the loopholes were closed. Basically you'd have a bunch of dentists or other guys with a lot of taxable income who would make a movie that is paid for mostly through tax credits from Germany or Canada (which is the second tax scheme), and that movie would lose a ton of "money" for its investors, who could then subtract the amount they "invested" into the movie from their real incomes when it came time to pay their income tax.

Then again look at 90% of the worlds population. Like, that's how society works. A solid bedrock of dumbasses, so the top 10% can get poo poo done.
