Re: Cloverfield
[QUOTE=Khabs;417418]ah, the old DD syndrome...
Can I make a suggestion (or a "reality check") to some here?
Please, stop bitching. Seriously. They pulled it off. They made a POV monster movie on a budget and were smart about marketing.
Now, please don't be smart with "I would do better".
You CAN do better. Seriously, just write a great script and you'll be in.<<
But, Khabs, the massive, overwhelming majority of people who try CAN'T do better. The combination of a good concept and the ability to execute it in a way that will justify the investment of millions of dollars is about as rare in a writer as a heart of gold in a hooker. It's a fun myth, but you just don't find it on the street.
