Watch my stupid movie tonight

[Roderick Usher]

I finally founs a reviewer who "got it" by stating "maybe the screenwriters knew they were making a stupid movie.

Yup - sure did.:D I gotta say getting scathing reviews is pretty fucking funny.

It's almost as if some of the reviewers think that the final product was all yours, like it all came together onscreen just as you had planned. Bah. Anyway, average review on Yahoo is 3 and a half out of 5 stars. That's above average! Anyway, every review I've read seems to say it's good cheesy fun so don't expect an award for "Worst Made for TV Movie Script" this year.

But how cool would that be? Mediocre product is one thing, but abysmally bad is something they can never take away from you:)

I didn't see any of it last night, so I'll have to wait for the Thursday rerun. Such a relief to have these three films behind me.

Yet I bet in many years your fans will be calling out to you daily to return to your schlock the way they beg Peter Jackson to go back to the days of Braindead.

Heavenly Creatures is Peter Jackson's only really good movie.

Frightener's was funny and I'll admit to not liking the whole it's so bad, it's funny "Dead Alive" but I don't think you can really compare it to Heavenly Creatures even if you're a fan.

At least somebody used something you wrote. I will try to check it out. :cool:

I hope you don't think I was being "scathing." As I said, I have yet to watch it, but fully intend to. (To be honest, I'll probably find it entertaining, because uh... I saw the previews:D You know, Sean, given my interests it's bound to give me a thrill in some form). I'mma actually buy it, and if you mess with me, I'm going to insist that you autograph it.;)

As I told you once (possibly a million times) UNCG has a really great small department film school. All of my guy friends got their BA's in Media Studies with big dreams of being great screenwriters like yourself, and with that, big dreams of absolute freedom. Screenwriting is a job. Sometimes you still gotta work for the Man/Woman. Sometimes the Man/Woman is going to say, "You're going to have to cut the part about how the main character's hatred for the monster is not only about it's destructive nature but also because it once was a creature of light and taught him about defeating the darkness and now he feels betrayed that the monster sold out... People aren't going to care. Cut it."

It's the same way in academic writing. Blows, but that's the way they get you.

Then you have to look at these famous screenwriters producing shit, absolute shit. You think your movie was bad. Maybe it was and maybe it wasn't. It probably wasn't. I'm definitely sure that it beats the hell out of a lot of the big screen stuff that is hyped to the point where the public is almost hypnotized into believing it's good.
