In response to: The Death Knell of Hollywood

Submitted by jedediah on Sun, 06/19/2005 - 08:35

I am posting my reply to "The Death Knell of Hollywood" here because I forgot my typekey account, and poasting here is easier than recreating a new account.

I hope you're right, and I hope that hollywood does take the path of the dodo bird. I too have been disgusted when the powers that be feel it necessary to tell me how bad I might be for stealing movies, WHILE I'M PAYING TO WATCH IT!! I have a friend who was at a theater when this was played, and he promptly demanded his money back because he was deeply offended. While I think this was a bit over the top, it might be the only thing that will work in the long run.

Personally, I'd rather not tell hollywood that the majority of America doesn't care about them anymore. Let 'em piss of enough customers, and it might force people to go look and actually find movies that are worth something. Let hollywood keep remaking^H^H^H^H^H^Hdestroying every old classic, but I'm going to find a better place to spend my hard earned money.
