Takeaway message — if you want your work shown in theaters, don’t sell your production to Warner-Discovery.

I'll do you one better - if you want your work to see the light of day at all, don't sell your production to Warner-Discovery, as it might get cancelled for a tax writeoff.

The fact that 100million dollars is a low budget movie now somehow is mind blowing to me.

[-] TheImpressiveX@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 days ago

$100 million isn't considered low budget in Hollywood.

[-] 4grams@awful.systems 4 points 2 days ago

good, I'm glad. I saw it in the theater and the biggest thing I took away from it was an appreciation for not having overdone it. just a fun, nostolgic take on an old halloween classic with ultimately low stakes. hit just the right note as far as I'm concerned.

still 100 million is a lowered budget. sheesh.

Hollywood accounting is insane. Offically all movies loose money.

I really enjoyed it.

He made us choose between watching it with rude strangers in public and not watching it at all.

[-] jdeath@lemm.ee 9 points 2 days ago

you could probably arrange to watch it with nice people in public. or just wait until it hits streaming in a couple months?

You mean after everyone's done talking about it? 😐
