Now having said that, I realize that releasing a film in the real world is like trying to get General Motors to release a handmade car.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I think, unfortunately or fortunately, the reality of Hollywood is that if your movie makes money, they'll make another one.
It's really hard to make an original movie of any kind that succeeds in the theatrical market place, in the wide release market place.
Film, as far as I'm concerned, is my area of artistic endeavor, so I never think of a movie that gets released as being all done-it's just when they took it away from you.
There's always gonna be people with a lot of money making film, and the goal is to make profit and carry on. It is a business. The goal is to make a living doing it and to be comfortable.
They're making so few movies that you really just have to make it. It's going to be the only way you end up getting work. I don't believe anyone's going to really go out on a limb and just throw millions of dollars on someone that's not been proven. They're going to have to show somebody something at some point.
The fact is, it's hard to release movies.
The usual key to getting films made seems to be a producer's terrier-like determination not to let it go. Unfortunately, such producers often seem prone to sinking their claws into mediocre projects.
I think the executives at the studios today realize that it's easier and safer to go the - to some known territory which is a remake of a successful film. It's less chancy than taking a fresh idea.
Very, very rare that you do a job knowing that the audience is desperate for you to do that job. Most films you make don't get released, is the fact.
Somebody has to invest in creating the movies of the future.
