Time To Find A New Career
WGA trying to figure out why there is no work for writers.
Maybe because the studios no longer have a clue...
The three biggest movies of the past couple of months are not the result of the studio system - THIS IS IT, PARANORMAL ACTIVITY, and PRECIOUS. Is there another legitimate "hit" out there? None of these are studio movies. They were made outside the studio system and picked up by the distribution arms. THIS IS IT maybe got some studio money, but all the footage had to do with something else entirely - a Jackson concert video.
For a system that very explicitly sold out to make "brands" and "hits" and "tentpoles", this track record is pretty piss poor.
Our industry is going the way of the dinosaur and newspapers...
