>“The fact that a movie like Money Monster was made at all is kind of amazing,” said Foster, who directed the movie. “It’s a kind of hybrid between a mainstream Hollywood movie that still is original and yet it’s not like a superhero franchise. It’s about relevant things that are happening now, and it’s smart.”
>“They’re invested in this model of having mostly big mainstream franchises that cost them a lot of money but they feel their risk-benefit (analysis) makes them a really good bargain,” she said. “So they don’t make narratives any more.”

It's official. Capeshit is the cancer that killed the industry

is Money Monster a Sesame Street spinoff?

>make a shit movie that flops

It's been twenty years since she did anything remotely relevant

jodie foster was so sexy did she ever show her pusy slit?
>>
It's a pretty sad state of existence when American cinema is divided to big budget capeshit, shitty "Apatow style" comedy films" and indie releases.

Hollywood is really bankrupt, both in terms of budget/production and in terms of ideas.

Still there is still European cinema which is still going strong, thank god for that.

Its funny but how did this shit happen? I don't go to the movies often anymore as a result of the fact most everything is a super hero flick or race bait.

I recall super hero films being kind of rare a decade ago.

fucking false.

they make these movies because people continue to watch them. why does the american middle class love capeshit ?

Based Foster BTFO of capeshit

I dont think the problem is that they are idea bankrupt, i think its that they dont invest in new fresh idea fioms because they are unknown and dont have a potential objective profit number attached to it. The indie scene still has a ton of creativity in it.

kek. funny how today, reply #2 in a lot of threads has said the exact same thing i came to say.

yup agreed. their shit flops, blame something else.

This.

It's what the public is paying for.

Free market at work, if you're a libertarian you can't complain.

this has happened before
back in the 50s/60s it was all sword & sandal biblical epics
then Cleopatra and a few others bombed and nearly bankrupted the studios and so they changed direction
>>
>>70262938

Seconding this. It could use your patronage, too, or else I'd tell you to just wait for a quality rip to leak.
>>
>>70262725
success breeds imitation
they're all terrified of having original ideas and failing, so they copy what was last summers success
this is the end point of the summer blockbuster mentality that began in the late '70s
>>
>>70263004
do you think we'll get a film like Hail Caesar but with capeshit in the 2060s
>>
This statement is coming from all quarters.

Not exactly a newsflash.
>>
>>70262654

This. Money Monster is the hit movie of 1998, too bad it's 2016 and that kind of well-meaning but bland as toast mid-budget star vehicle is dead and buried.

These sorts of movies died out for a reason, the trailers for this were fucking pathetic. It's the same reason that Secret In Their Eyes remake bombed, these stories are all being moved to television and those kinds of 90's thrillers just seem like a dinosaur of a different time that have no reason to exist.
>>
>>70262942
Makes you lose hope in people doesn't it
Fucking meatsacks whooping and hollering at a projection. Clapping at a blank wall when they could at least turn around and clap at the guy that pressed the play button on the computer.. who 5 minutes before was checking his facebook app on his iphone
>>

Yes, manchild. Take comfort in your numbers.

People are hooked.
It's like watching a TV show but you have to pay $10 to watch one episode.
Eventually people are going to stop giving a shit just like every other TV series.

>just seem like a dinosaur of a different time that have no reason to exist.
oh, just like your mom then?
>>
is she butthurt because Meme Monster doesnt make as much as capeshit and also got much worse reviews than capeshit kek
>>
>>70263156
They died out because abortions like you were allowed to live, ADHD runs rampant and capeshit is your fix

I think she's 100% correct. But her movie is uninteresting, feels like a dated theme and based on the Beaver; I don't think she can direct.

it looks like "literally george cloony and sandra boolock give a political speech: the movie"

he said the same shit on Meet the Press about his clinton fundraisers

people don't pay money to get a speech about muh wall street

I don't get it, why is she mad that businesses are going with what makes them money instead of what doesn't make them money? They're businesses, they revolve around making money. That's their job

Regardless if the movie is actually good or not, extreme market saturation has always shit on everything equally. For instance, you can't see Money Monster anywhere within 200 miles of my location simply because there's so much other stuff on the billboard that are sequels to successful franchises and/or reboots of the same shit (Alice, X-men, TMNT, Captain America, Neighbors 2, The Jungle Book, Conjuring 2, Now you see me 2). Hell, I can't even go see Zootopia, The Darkness, or Angry Birds, IF I wanted to see them in the local cinemas. I have to settle with torrents instead.
>>
>>70262586
Capeshit is just one flavor variant of the format and it's silly to present it as the cause when you could claim anything from Titanic to Jaws as the trend-setter.

The studio picks a project, pours 300-500 million dollars into production and marketing and prays it makes a billion dollars in a month. This is where most of the money in Hollywood goes these days, everything else literally has to get funded by south asian billionaires operating from Dubai.

Not really. Foster is a closet lesbian Nazi sympathizer who is the only reason Mel Gibson still gets work in Hollywood and who shares a lot of Gibsons right wing antisemitism style views on the down low.....

Name one instance of Foster being a feminist bitch. When she was asked about actresses complaining about the wage gap her response was "it’s hard for me to get interested in millionaires worried about who gets paid more"
