Siskel and Ebert said it best years ago when they pointed out that the early film makers made films of great literature because that is what they had been raised on.
Today’s film makers were raised on comic books.
“Today’s film makers were raised on comic books.”
I don’t see them as film makers.
They are technicians. Films are today designed assembly line products.
If the market was great literature, the same filmmakers would be making that, etc...
It’s not their decision which films to make.
That’s a very good point.
