The author is a moron. He blames "capitalism" for a phenomenon that is only possible through government-imposed tax codes.

Meanwhile, you sit back safe and secure in the knowledge that while your project drops out of the 300 theatres it was showing in after 2 weeks, it is actually making you a mint. This explains sooooo much about... Tim Burton.

To keep up the H'weird braggadocio lifestyle, actors, like ballplayers, receive gluttonous amounts of money for less than stellar performance. Now this money comes from various means especially from the consumer in jacked up high prices at the movie theatre. In this atmosphere of high-priced movie theatre entertainment with mediocre acting and shrinking movie-goers, one wonders how long H'weird will stay in existence.

Ed Wood? I'm a big fan of his work--it takes a lot to pursue a dream when you have absolutely zero talent. He did what he loved and will be remembered as a passionate if hilariously inept film-maker. It's too bad he died before he could see his movies rise in the public consciousness.

How does a tax write-off become a gold mine?
You STILL have to have earned the money in the first place. So what, it's 100% deductible. Big deal. It's also 100% down a rat hole. If I want a 100% tax deduction on money I'm going to burn, I'll ask my employer to stop paying me. Therefore that money that I would have had and burnt, was 100% tax free!

I had some quality time with my 8 year old grandson over the weekend and I asked if he wanted to see a movie. The options were Chicken Little, Harry Potter or "Your's, Mine & Ours" which for some reason is what he wanted to see -- Must have had a lot of hype advertising on Nickelodeon is all I can figure. It was a totally lame remake of an old movie from the 60s and even my grandson, who will laugh at just about anything, hardly gave it a chuckle and I didn't hear any laughing from the rest of the audience.
It was a waste of money. I should have taken him bowling instead.

The writer is a moron who doesn't understand investments or taxes.
The two most likely explanations for this guy are:
1. He just wants to make movies, but he has zero talent.
2. His movie business generates revenues in other areas of business that are profitable.
