Some times boosh the stuff you say makes even less sense than normal. So hollywood needs to stop making fanboy driven movies and return to movies for everyone to enjoy why? Is it because the fanboy movies are making TOO much money? If fanboy/girl films account for 7, count-em 7 of the top 7 movies this year then why would hollywood stop trying to appeal to the people that pay their bills? Whether you like it or not the fanboy isn't just some nerd sitting in his parents basement playing D&D all day anymore. This so called Fanboy of yours has evolved into not just social acceptable but even praised group of millions upon millions of men and women who are willing to put their hard earned cash into a product that they deem worth. Simple business 101 go where the money is. If these fanboys are still willing to show up in droves and shell out huge amounts of cash then they are going to keep making movies for them. No studio exec is going to look at the Avengers and say "you know what Joss that last movie was pretty good but I feel like we could bring in alot more people if we cut out all the superhero comicy stuff and added in a little bit of romance for the ladies, Oh and make it a cartoon so that more kids will want to go see it." You know why Marvel has been successful where DC hasn't? Because they know their main crowd is the fanboy and if they can get them to love the movie the other people will follow.Buscemi wrote:Sounds like proof that Hollywood needs to stop making fanboy-driven movies (notice how just about every big movie this year was made for fanboys and no one else?) and return to making movies that everyone can enjoy without having to buy the merchandise or read the book before seeing it.
I'm still flabbergasted as to how anyone can think that the people breaking records aren't doing something right.
A little FYI the top ten movies this year will make 3.3 billion dollars thanks to the fanboy.
