Why Netflix Shelled Out for Cary Fukunaga's 'Beasts of No Nation'
‘Sharknado 3′ Hit By Strike
I've got less than 6 minutes to make a point. There's a class I've been trying to reach on my film departments schedule to conscript a representative for the film society at Brooklyn College (we're appointing class reps now : o)
It's not often you hear about crews walking off set in what's apparently a successful franchise.
It's not often you hear a star reverse the commentary that films today are shit when it's arguable there's a ton of good stuff out there being made by more than a few good men and women.
And if I could gloss over these points and say that filmmakers have more opportunities and less need to put up with exploitative efforts, adding to it the challenge of legacy distribution models as the internet is further empowered by moves made from Netflix, and content creators to day see a virtual construction of the stage for this incoming generation.
We need to take note that this would only be possible if some people challenged the notion that there was a limit to appetite. I don't think there is. I think a new boom is coming. Those of us that want to break in need to start salivating and pushing forward. We have to join the rising tide.
