The NZA Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 telegraph Quote While speaking with Radio Times about her episode of Netflix’s Black Mirror, director/actress Jodie Foster discussed the current state of cinema, saying studios have transformed films into “theme parks.” She explained that Hollywood studios are making “bad content” in order to appeal to the masses and rake in money, stating that those efforts will grant them the best return now in exchange for wrecking the state of cinema. “It’s ruining the viewing habits of the American population and then ultimately the rest of the world,” Foster said. “I don’t want to make $200 million movies about superheroes.”And while Foster appears to have no plans to hop on the superhero train anytime soon, she did state that perhaps she’d be interested in making a film about a superhero if and only if they had a “really complex psychology.” Despite her issues with superhero films and Hollywood’s love of huge blockbusters, Foster seems willing to sign on for one should it prove to be more of a character piece than another run of the mill action film. there's a lot more at the link & she's far from the first person to be wary of big-budget films dominated hollywood, but i thought she had some points and look forward to her Moon Knight film next year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drifter Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 I've heard this one before, earlier this year. Not sure who said it, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donatella Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 Ever since I found out about her staunch support for friend Mel Gibson, I don't give a shit about her opinions, valid or not. I just don't care to hear what she has to say, ever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
