By FF8 it is clear that they had no idea what to do with their characters seeing as half the cast had nothing to do.

and that's why it didn't get rereleased on the switch when 7, 9, and X all did

Independent film is film that has thought in it. There's no independent thought in studio films. It's collective thought. These things you get from Hollywood are no more than computer games, where you might as well have a little wired handset that you could blow up this truck if you want instead of that one, that would at least allow audience participation. With independent film, simply because they don't have the money to make a big-budget film, they're forced to make a story that's important to them, that they would like to see on film, a personal story that people can relate to, about people, where you can see the love of the characters. That's true of the best films I've done, certainly (John Cassavetes) films."

Workin' Man Films has an interesting production history

quote:

Sci-fighters is a science-fiction futuristic thriller set in a future when the Earth is covered in a darkness caused by ecological upsets. The Moon is a convict colony, where the former partner of cop Cameron Grayson, Adrian, is now imprisoned for the rape and murder of Grayson's wife. Adrian contracts an alien virus which mutates him, and on escaping back to Earth he attacks and infects several others. Grayson teams up with the attractive Dr Kirbie from the Centre for Disease Control to track down Adrian.

To be fair, my standards are quite low. When I say 'nice person' I mean 'doesn't gently caress kids or forcibly masturbates at people'.

6 - diminishing returns

8 - cash grab

As best demonstrated by their Japanese titles:
Wild Speed
Wild Speed X2
Wild Speed X3: Tokyo Drift
Wild Speed Max
Wild Speed Mega Max
Wild Speed: Euro Mission
Wild Speed: Sky Mission
Wild Speed: Ice Break

X2/3 is trying to do the same thing over again. Max is fun until you find out about Mega Max. Missions are trying to accomplish something. Ice Break is just a confusing turn.

When someone masturbates @ me, I prefer they do it with a little vigor. None of this limp stealthy hiding-it-under-a-bunched-up-coat-in-your-lap kind of action.

Remember when the producer for that movie was excited about it utilizing the "the virginity" of Playmobil?

e: oh here we go, it was the director

quote:

the film will be character-driven, trigger emotions and imagination, while the designs will “embrace the virginity and simplicity of ‘Playmobil.'”
