I'm certain you'll argue until the day silent movies make a comeback but let me ask you something. 1. What were the ages of those folks seeing MIDNIGHT IN PARIS? Would you say the majority were older folks? I know you don't watch too many "art" films but I'd say the majority are older...

Yeah, it could happen. I'd say it'll happen the same time people grow tired of sound and color and start to demand B&W silent films again. Again, support your art films and skip the blockbusters. As for movies being dumbed down, I'm pretty sure you could track this back to 1916. But...

But don't you think if SARAH'S KEY could open at 3700 theaters and bring in $30 million on an opening weekend then the studio would do it? Theater owners are going to bring in whatever puts butts in the seats and they'd be stupid to book any of those films. As a business man would you rather...

July has TRANSFORMERS III, HARRY POTTER, CAPTAIN AMERICA,A THE SMURFS and WINNIE THE POO lined up but since people want original movies (if they're out there) then they can pick from these: Delhi Belly The Perfect Host Beats, Rhymes & Life Fading of the Cries Project Nim Ranchero Rapt...

You can pick a few that "didn't make their money back" but for the most part everyone of these made cash back and this is before foreign, video, cable and so on. The odds of you making a film like these that doesn't make money is a lot less than throwing something "original" out there. **It's...

Hmm...I see no evidence of people wanting sequels/remakes/unoriginal ideas. Judging by the top five at the box office it's clear indie, original works are what people want. Travis, you're way off base here my friend. [sarc over]

There are more original, indie movies released each week than mindless, sequel/remake Hollywood blockbusters. Check out www.boxofficemojo.com to see which ones people are going to see.

9/14/10 Very few people know FRIGHT NIGHT.   10/07/11 People will go see FRIGHT NIGHT making it a hit, learn it is a remake and then check out the original.   If remakes weren't making money then they'd stop making them. If remakes didn't help the original film then studios wouldn't...

I personally love STRAW DOGS and consider it a masterpiece but there are many, many critics who hated it and bashed the hell out of it when released as well as today.   However, I'd say 98% of movie fans today would hit the eject button around the three-minute mark. My prediction on a wide...

Agreed. The clothing, hair styles and look of FRIGHT NIGHT are so modern that I'm certain they could just put it back into theaters and today's crowds would think it was a new movie. It's not like this is old like PIRANHA.
