So many large movies come to you with a huge marketing campaign and it's like you have to see this movie this weekend, otherwise you'll be culturally bankrupt and can't converse with your friends.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Movies are such an integral part of American culture. We're so spread out in this country, and movies offer us a chance to come together and have a communal experience.
The reason they don't make movies for adults and for people which are the largest bulge of the population is because they are not usually going to the movie the first weekend. They take a while to learn about it, probably word of mouth. It takes a lot of money to release a picture.
We have to promote a movie. It's just extraordinary that everybody I'm talkin' to loves this movie.
I guess, you make a big studio film, you spend a lot of money on it and you hope people go see it. It's really risky.
There's a vast difference between marketing a movie and the movie itself. You try to cast as wide and broad a net as possible.
I don't want to commit to too many films, as it would result in getting out of touch with what is happening in the industry.
Unfortunately, overall, movies are a conglomerate. People buy and sell people in this business, which can get really ugly.
Movies are an art form that is very available to the masses.
I'll never do a film because it's a massive budget and I'm gonna get lots of publicity for it and it will bring something else.
I got to learn from the American audience. Hearing what it is they're not getting. These are audiences, 35 to 40, an older demographic that controls seven to 10 trillion dollars. And the producers and distributors have convinced themselves this group doesn't go to the movies.
