Well, I don't know. I think that today's filmmakers--generally--have forgotten how to make things fun. And how to have fun making things, which is a big part of the trick. By and large, most Hollywood product is very cookie-cutter, very mechanically produced, and I think the only fun people are having while they make it is when they buy a swimming pool with the money. In other words, the "fun" isn't in the process itself.
Occasionally I'll see something that I think is fun. "House of 1,000 Corpses," while perhaps not the perfect movie, seems to be having fun doing what it is doing.
