I hope someone takes the time to calculate the number of the films you mention that were actually MADE by Hollywood. Not just distributed.
A couple of them. Birdman to a certain extent if you loop Regency with Fox. Annapurna primarily did Foxcatcher.
For the most part, Hollywood did not make these films you've mentioned. They bought distribution rights for North America perhaps , but they did not strategically decide to invest in the making of them.
I WISH they'd had a hand in more of these. That would have been awesome.
Ted Hope's Ten Really Bad Things in Film Biz 2014 Dec 06, 11:32
#1 is particularly true, especially as it's going to continue, if not get worse, over the next 5 years {nm} Dec 06, 13:40
have you seen It Follows? its probably 2015's Blue Ruin. I like BR more, but its pretty good {nm} Dec 06, 17:32
Was It Follows crowdsourced? I saw it at VIFF. The first hour is great, but then it completely falls apart {nm} Dec 07, 01:00
not crowdfunded {nm} Dec 07, 10:07
I did indeed. Think we chatted about it in Cannes. Really enjoyed it. Hope it does well. {nm} Dec 07, 06:57

I'll try it another way. I prefer to be a part of the solution. {nm} Dec 06, 17:17
If You're not a Part of the Solution, You're a Part of the Problem. {nm} Dec 06, 17:40
But its more fun to make snarky comments from the peanut gallery. {nm} Dec 06, 21:19
+1 {nm} Dec 07, 08:44
As long as it's not VOD, which Ted conitnues to proclaim as a big part of the problem. {nm} Dec 07, 14:53
you're misunderstanding. ted's talking about Netflix's SVOD not VOD. BTW Ted owns a SVOD platform - fandor Dec 07, 14:57
Moviesnob, what is SVOD, TVOD and AVOD please? {nm} Dec 07, 20:34
inside Dec 07, 22:16
Appreciate the info, thank you. {nm} Dec 08, 12:38
I hope someone takes the time to calculate the number of the films you mention that were actually MADE by Hollywood. Not just distributed. Dec 07, 00:21
The question is: which movies do you want to see: Thor 12 or 12 Years A Slave? Green Hornet or Boyhood? Dec 07, 10:06
and one thing you refuse to consider is that without Xmen, theres no Birdman {nm} Dec 07, 10:12
There's no Way to Prove that - it's simply HogWash Speculation. {nm} Dec 07, 10:50
I completely disagree. Completely. It's simply not the case. {nm} Dec 07, 13:40
I said I agree 100% with Ted. I don't think Hollywood has it right. Thats why I work for an indie label. Dec 07, 14:46
I don't think I'm worse than "Accept the death of Hollywood Films For Adults". Or Dec 07, 14:35
Ted Hope also did an article about the 10 Best Things in Film in 2014 Dec 07, 11:11
Because I live in a small NE college town with a good independent theatre, I don't have to choose between GOTGX and WHIPL. Dec 07, 14:17
i'll take Thor 12, Boyhood, and Green Hornet, thanks Dec 07, 22:42
not those examples. Disney sold off Miramax long ago. But some studios still want to make movies for more cultured tastes Dec 07, 10:14
if they are prebuying, or doing negative pickups, then they are strategically investing in the making of them Dec 07, 10:07
What is a "negative pick-up"? {nm} Dec 07, 10:15
the distribution company agrees to pay a set amount upon completion of the film. the production company then can take Dec 07, 10:17
Oh. . . *that* negative. :) Thanks. {nm} Dec 07, 13:47
combine all their box office totals and they don't even come close to one Hunger Games installment Dec 07, 01:13
# 11. Dec 06, 17:13
Ugh. I know. It's like what is so important that they need to be on their phones right now? Dec 07, 12:16
