BizofShowBiz - For those in show business and the entertainment industry
I picked this up from BizofShowBiz:
“We don’t want to make movies,” says Lucas. “We’re about to get into television. As far as Lucasfilm is concerned, we’ve moved away from the feature film thing, because it’s too expensive and it’s too risky.
“I think the secret to the future is quantity, because that’s where it’s going to end up.”
He also thinks that the American public is abandoning movie going - that’s been said before of course.
What does seem to be true though is that a trickle of Hollywood directors see alternatives that are more workable and as glamorous.
I still say Dan Myrick’s Venice Strand is a great, great movie even though I can only see it on my Zen. And it’s great because made at low cost he can afford to go back to old fashioned movie values. It’s a creative liberation.
